For those of you that want to run both BE's and BF on same pc (Win 7):
BE's (Block Eruptors) running under an instance of bfgminer 3.2.1, with the following shortcut (text in Target field of shortcut)
C:\temp\bfgminer-3.2.0-win64\bfgminer.exe -o [pool url] -u [user name] -p [password] -G -S erupter:all --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100
(change to suit the location of your executable)
Once the BE's are running, run a separate instance of bfgminer for BF. I used
either bfgminer 3.2.0 ('special', with the BF driver installed per the support thread)
using bfgminer32 ver 3.2.0 and the batch file of the style
bfgminer.exe -S "BF1:all" -o [pool url] -u [user name] -p [password]
(this works ok w/o H errors)
or 3.5.1, using a batch file with the content:
bfgminer.exe -S bigpic:all -o [pool url] -u [user name] -p [password]
(works ok but with increasing H errors)
Had both running on the same old laptop for a few days now (with BF going on and off for different tests and s/w configurations).
Cheers

Sir, this post was most helpful! I'm still waiting for my BF's to arrive, but when they do I'm planning to run them together with my current BE setup. I was already looking for information to prepare it so they could be up and running as soon as they arrived.
So thanks to you I can make sure I have the right miners and command lines ready.
Thank you!
Let us know what performance are your BF's getting
Cheers
I posted above how it is possible to hardware overclock. Firmware over clocking might be available in the future I just don't want to cause more issues that would then need to be fixed.
