Solved!
After being away for a while, I had some time to figure it out.
One of the sticks was bad, it would register and show up in the system properly. Though once CGminer, or BGminer would try to "talk" to it. The device would fail, causing the application to crash.
Sad to see it go, but what ya gonna do...
Topic: ASIC USB Troubleshooting (Read 803 times)
Can anyone confirm if they are using a higher version of CGminer than 3.1.1 and have it working with the USB sticks?
Hello,
Ive had a few of the first generation USB ASIC's running for a while now and everything has been going great until last night. I went and checked the room where everything is located and noticed the green LED's were mostly illuminated. Checking the machine I saw that a few of my USB blocks were "OFF" according to CGminer 3.1.1. No trouble I figure, ill just quit and relaunch.
However, when I attempted to relaunch the batch file, CGminer will no longer launch, it just crashes instantly as though there is something wrong with the configuration file. Which is puzzling because this has never been an issue up until last night.
Below is a copy/paste of my .bat file, if anyone can help troubleshoot this with me, I would be very greatful.
Version:
CGminer- 3.1.1
cgminer-nogpu.exe -o stratum+tcp://us1.ghash.io:3333 -u shadizzle.1 -p 12345 –icarus-options 115200:1:1 –icarus-timing 3.0=100 -S //./COM3 -S //./COM5 -S //./COM6 -S //./COM7 -S //./COM8 -S //./COM18 -S //./COM26 -S //./COM27 -S //./COM28 -S //./29 -S //./30 -S //./COM31
EDIT: TO ADD- I pulled a couple of the USB sticks and attempted to launch off of my laptop one at a time to make sure I just dont have a faulty stick. Adjusted the batch file to have the same outcome.
