Topic: Help with asicminer usb setup (Read 1486 times)
Did you try a different computer? Where are you located? Maybe someone could make a house call or do a remote link...
Without the silabs drivers, I still get the same "no devices detected" error in cgminer.
I tried bitminter, but I got a timeout error when trying to probe the port, and I do have the silabs drivers installed.
You can download the Eobot software, it automatically will work with an unlimited number of the Asicminer USB...you can choose BTC/LTC, and it will mine either one for you using the USB. Here's the link:

When I have only the zadig WinUSB drivers installed, the miner isn't assigned a COM port.
That's right, that's why you don't use the -S option.
have you tried Bitminter? I had some problems, but with Bitminter I've seen all my 10 block erupters and now I'm mining from several days!

You shouldn't have both zadig and the other drivers installed. Just use the zadig. Are the devices showing up properly there?
Yes, I'll try it on another computer once I get home.
Do you have another PC or laptop you can try? I was unable to run my erupters on my windows7 64bit desktop but had no problem with my windows 7 netbook.
For CGMiner, I tried uninstalling the SI labs drivers, reinstalling the zadig drivers, and then reinstalling the SI labs drivers, but I still get the same errors.
Also, if you want to try CGMiner again, try uninstalling the serial drivers first (the ones that identify the erupter as a COM port) from SI labs before you reinstall Zadig drivers. You shouldn't see CP210x bridge anymore.
If you're trying with the latest BFGMiner 3.2.0, then try using -S erupter:all.
Also the permissions issues you're having occur often if you're trying to run BFGMiner directly from a folder under the desktop or the desktop itself. If that's the case, try putting it in a folder directly on C:\ instead like C:\Mining\bfgminer.exe

Yeah, it is plugged into a USB 2.0 port
sorry we aren't being of much help.... the only other thing that I can think of (which didn't happen to me but I read about in a few places) is that USB3 ports cause issues sometimes... possible to try on a USB2 port?
I tried it, it just says "All devices disabled, cannot mine!"
have you tried running bfgminer without specifying the com ports? I typically only have to use the -S in older versions of cgminer....bfgminer has been no problem with just the address, user:pass combo
When running as administrator, I still got the same error.
What ABN said,
Left click and highlight your batch>right click> Run as admin

did you try running it in "administrator" mode?
I didn't need to resort to that, but I found numerous threads where that was advised.....
