I did unzip and put all minerd files in same folder as my wallet executable.
I entered
"stratum+tcp://mine2.bsty.nonce-pool.com" in server box
"4095" in port box
"user.worker" in username box
"workerpass" in password box
Click start mining and it immediately comes up and say "Miner exited".
Nope, didn't see that anywhere......sorry if I missed, will try now and report back:-)
Yep, that was it......she's mining away now. Apologies again I must have missed that somewhere!
Intel or AMD processor. I am getting the same think on my AMD processor for pool mining, but solo mining is fine.
I am asking devbst about this now. I can drop a line when he answers or he might post here.
and open the debug log, it reports

Miner started. You might not see any output for a few minutes.

Miner exited.
What is the exact model of your Intel Processor, so I can compare stats with mine. Maybe I can see what is happening.
Pentium(R) Dual-Core E5700 @3.00GHz
From the specs it looks like you only have two physical cores. What do you have threads set to in the wallet? Do you have hyperthreading enabled in the BIOS?
Maybe the dev will have an answer. I know he is working on getting a MAC Wallet and a MAC miner developed right now.
