Topic: Antminer U2 Trouble (Read 1283 times)
Cool, thanks!
That means it is working.
You are receiving new blocks that you can help mine through that stratum pool.

Thanks for the help, I think I'm making progress. The green light is blinking and cgminer is running. But, every 5 seconds it just says Stratum from pool 0 detected new block. What does that mean?
I just received my Antminer U2 today, popped it in, and launched GUIminer hoping to get started. However, it was not detected. I probably messed up by assuming that the correct driver would have downloaded. Do I need. To uninstall a driver before downloading the correct one? If so, which driver should I use for Windows 8? Finally, is GUIminer compatible with the Antminer, or is there a better choice? Thanks in advance for helping a noob.
GUIminer is ancient and unsupported. Both CGMiner and BFGMiner are current and continuously updated mining software programs that support Antminer U1/2. You'll need to install the correct drivers as pointed to by the previous response. I have a bunch of U1 and U2's and they are running fine on BFGMiner (win7/64).Cheers
Here is a link for the set up of the U1 but it should be the same drivers uses for the U2: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/how-to-install-use-and-overclock-an-antminer-u1-bitcoin-asic-miner-in-windows-406149
