Topic: GUIMiner fails to start (Read 3312 times)
Read further into the Readme, figured out the version of Python I had installed was not new enough, and I did not have WXPython installed.
Alright, so as I'm sure all of you will clearly be able to tell, I'm relatively new to mining Bitcoins. I don't really intend to make a super-profit off of those, but more or less just have it as a hobby and to make a bit of extra cash. So I looked around at the miners available, and considering my hardware (Weak CPU, semi-decent GPU) I decided on a GPU Miner that an inexperienced person like myself would be able to use, so I decided on GUIMiner. I installed OpenCL, the latest drivers for my GPU, and also set up an account on Mining.Bitcoin.CZ as to join a pool (registered one worker, unsure how that works). I then tried to start GUIMiner and I receive the error: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem". I did try re-extracting it over that install, and it still did not work.
Any idea on how to get GUIMiner to start, or a step-by-step guide to using one of the Miners that use a CLI?
