Hi, thank you for the help. I just got a friend to follow through the instructions and he understood it all.
Apparently if I just click on TheKeVKiCksASS then that is the .bat file I was missing. He also used the notepad helper to get it all going although I'm a bit non the wiser.
It seems the blank white sheet (windows cannot read file) was not really an issue.

Sadly after right-clicking on the .conf file there was no option to edit anything
Right click on file / edit.

P.S. You should try to use google.

You have to set vertminer.conf and start.bat files after that you can start by clicking start.bat file

Can you paste here your .conf and .bat files than we can see what is wrong.
It has to work.
It has to work.
The .conf file was blank and windows said it cannot read this file. I have various other blank sheet unreadable files. This seems to be the problem.
The .bat file was not found.

Hi Equate,
I'm already registered on a Vertcoin pool on Coinotron. I have a wallet set up ready with them. I just don't know how to configure the miner to read to the pool there.
Also, I used GUI Miner for PPC and found you can just input all the necessary Ports and web address and it works fine.
Vertminer simply shows me a small DOS screen with errors.

register on vertcoin pool first , create workers and point your miners to it.

Hello, I'm a newbie miner trying to use Vertminer on Coinotron to run my GPU but I'm having some problems.
I downloaded the link and unzipped the files, then click on the Vertminer run icon and I get a small black DOS screen with this at the bottom:
Failed to resolve (?wrong URL) Pool 2:PORT
Failed to resolve (?wrong URL) Pool 1:PORT
Does anyone know how I can link it to my GPU?
