Is this what you did?:

Try cd'ing from the command line into the folder with DiabloMiner in it. So:

1.) Download Diablo Miner
2.) Extract to folder in "Downloads"
3.) Start>cmd>Enter>Command Prompt Window Comes up
4.) Type "cd " (with the space) then drag the DiabloMiner folder over the Command Prompt. Press enter.
5.) Type in your
Code:
DiabloMiner-Windows.exe -u [email protected] -p password -o pit.deepbit.net -r 8332 -v 2 -w 128 AGGRESSION = 13
6.) Press enter

Did that work/make sense? If not I'd be happy to make a video tutorial of it... Smiley

Bitcoin today is what the internet was in 1998.
1. Download CGMiner: http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/cgminer-2.4.2-win32.zip
2. Unzip it to a folder
3. Open notepad
4. Type in
Code:
C:\yourdirectory\cgminer.exe -l 2 -g 2 -w 128 -I 7 --auto-fan -o http://p2pmining.com:9332 -O yourbitcoinaddress:x
Where yourbitcoinaddress is the address you want to receive payments to. If you do this you will be mining with P2Pool and will automatically get paid after amassing 0.5 BTC.

i would like to use p2pool but i have no idea how to set it up, i read the wiki but its all chinese to me Sad

can you list the steps (dumbed down) on how to set it up
you should just use one of these pools that are free and support merged mining

because otherwise you'd be running namecoind and bitcoind while you run the run_p2pool.exe to merge mine and that's extra stuff you have to deal with

I'm using deepbit

I've downloaded diablo, i go to cmd and type DiabloMiner-Windows.exe -u [email protected] -p mypassword -o pit.deepbit.net -r 8332

but it keeps saying cannot connect/or invaild user name... they are all correct
You need to create a Deepbit worker and then append the worker number to your email address as the username.

Also, I recommend you use a pool other than Deepbit, simply because of the fees they charge.
