I have been trying to connect to BTC Guild. The only support I could find was their "support page". All it really said was how to configure the miner. I did all that and it still does not work.

I even tried going into my firewall settings and allowing the port through, but that didn't help. I even tried going into My PC > Properties > Advanced System Settings > Performance Settings > Data Execution Prevention and adding cgminer as an exception. That didn't work either. I tried a different pool and a different currency. I the miner up and running, and things were even displaying that I had just found a block and it was accepted, but the website wouldn't show anything. In the block history it showed the solver as --Error--.

I've done hours of research and rebooted/restored/reinstalled dozens of times.

Can you give the command line you are using to start cgminer or the config file.

Try a different pool to start with, this will tell you if it is a local problem, or a pool connection problem.

After that we can look at the next step.

I have tried multiple pools with 0 success.

I have been using cgminer and it says that it is running, but there is absolutely nothing going on on the pool site. I let it run for typically an hour before checking it again. Just to let the site update and all that, but every site says "0 h/s" and everything else.

I took a screenshot of all the settings and whatnot from cgminer. They can be found on photobucket. link will be below

I would appreciate any help with this. I am getting ever more frustrated as time goes on.

Which pool are you with? Do they offer no support?

i have been trying everything. I have unblocked it from my firewall; I have opened the port that it required. Nothing is working. I am getting very agitated!
