I'm using some old Block Eruptors, upgraded jalapeño and a couple of U2.  Would it be better to, not, run it through the client?

What does the blue screen say? Does it mention a driver?

Hopefully it won't happen again, but if it does I'll take some notes.

So new drivers are not causing it.

Probably overheating, if you are mining on the graphics card.

Question


I have been using the client since December of last year.  Not until recently, have I been getting the Microsoft blue screen, and of course the miners hooked up to the computer.  Is anyone else having this problem?  If so, what was the solution?  Thanks in advance.

Did you install new graphics drivers? Maybe they are not working right.

Or your graphics card is overheating.


I haven't downloaded anything lately.  So if it was recent, then no.  Was there something recent?

Can someone give me their input on how this software handles on DebianOS?

Runs fine on Ubuntu. Should be fine on Debian too.

You will need Java Webstart installed, not just Java itself. Ubuntu likes to split that off in a separate package - Debian is probably the same. Once you have Java Webstart working, Bitminter client will run fine.

hi all, Im  a newbie here, but i was wondering (an i appologise if this has been already answered) does the bitminter client support  Drillbit Thumb (Avalon Gen 2) USB Bitcoin miners.

Hi,

that's not supported, sorry.

You can try bfgminer or cgminer instead. Connect to stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333

Please tell me if is any method to mint with this processor:
AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight - Core Processor - 4.0 GHz

Mining bitcoins with CPU became obsolete in 2011.

Try some ASIC mining hardware: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison#ASIC

Recent i order this item: USB Miner U2 Antminer Bitcoin 2Gh/s

Install this driver: http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx

You can run it with Bitminter client.

To control the clock settings click the little green arrows to expand the U2 display, then the wrench to access the device settings.

I have 5 grid seeds that I got from a friend. He gave me a power supply, usb hub and cables.

Those are not supported (at least not yet) in Bitminter client. You'll have to try bfgminer or cgminer. There are links to those on the front page of bitminter.com.

2014.07.11 [18:31]  Probe of port COM57 failed: timeout

I get this message with one plugged in. My computer sees the device and the device is named "STMicroelectronics Virtual COM Port (COM57)"

Can someone help walk me through getting these connected?

Thanks in advance

I think the Avalon Thumbs may be popular, they are the same speed as antminer u2 1.6-2.4 gh/s plus they are only $15 usd from their site.  I prefer bitminter over all the other mining clients i have tried. I hope its not too much of a hassle for you, mostly because i just bought $200 worth of them.  My bad i know, i should have checked if they were supported.

will bitminter client be supporting drlibitt systems "avalon thumb" asic usb miner, or any of the drillbitt miners?

No immediate plans for this. If it is easy to add support I may do it, but those machines look a bit slow at this point.. I don't know if they will be popular.
