Topic: Can't seem to mine (Read 405 times)
so I figured I was stupid. i wasn't using --scrypt to mine scrypt algo. and it has speed in khash.. Makes sense now
Hi,
first off I am sorry if this isn't the correct section to post this topic. So I started to use minerd cpuminer for some fun and learning. I see that it gives me about 10khash/s. And it looks fine to me.
So I decided to try my old gpu to mine as for learning purpose. I know its not worth it. its an nvidia geforce 8400 gs. I used cgminer client for windows32 bit running on windows 8. It starts fine, entered server p2pool.org. my ltc address (i hope its allowed to talk about litecoins here, as bitcoin mining seems pointless to me on my current gpu) as username and abc as password.
I left it there for like 2 hours. And i came back. it was working, it would display nothing else other than 2.332Mh/s / 2.xxxxMh/s.
And best share =1.
rest of things were just saying 0. I saw no change at all in 2 hours. I am not sure what's wrong.
It just displayed
Thread 1 disabled
stratum from pool 0 requested work restart
stratum from pool 0 requested work restart
then sometimes it would show
found new block
diff changed to #xxxxxx
I cant figure out what could be wrong.
I tried feathercoin, tried different pools, still it wont get a single share out of it after hour. I mean 2Mh/s is pretty good speed to get like 2ftc/hour.
Help me out, thank you
