Topic: Help me with beginner setup please (Read 365 times)
what hardware are you using? CPU and GPU will not likely net you anything. You'll need an ASIC device.
I have set up a wallet on coinbase and received a wallet address. I did not add a bank account yet. I also created an account on BTC Guild. I installed GUIminer. I am doing this on a laptop, I just want to see if I can get this working before I advance any farther. I would like to mine with my CPU. I went to file, new miner, new ufasoft cpu miner. In the ext. path there is the following;
C:\Users\hp4\Desktop\bitcoin\guiminer\miners\ufasoft\bitcoin-miner.exe
in my bitcoin folder i dont see a miners folder as well as a ufasoft folder let alone a bitcoin-miner.exe
for server I have, BTC Guild (any)
for Username I have my worker name from BTC Guild
for password I have used my BTC Guild password and i have used 123
extra flags is left blank and CPU Affinity has the (0) box checked
When I click start mining nothing happens. Please help.
Also do you know if the bitcoinplus site actually works? specifically for CPU mining. Thanks!
