and is the username in the form of:

Login.suffix ?

ie: if you log in to the mining.bitcoin.cz site with "someotherguy" and your miner account (on the my account screen) is "miner1"

it should be: --user=someotherguy.miner1

Also, it should be noted that if you are trying to mine for yourself, the --host switch should be 127.0.0.1, not mining.bitcoin.cz.

I cant even open the Miner.

No I mean, is there a folder with the miner.bat file and the poclbm.exe file in it?

Yes it is in the same folder as I extracted the miner into after downloading it.

Good, heh.

And that file is in the folder with poclbm in it?

That file is in the miner.bat file (not a folder) I open it by right clicking and selecting "Edit" I put the file in their using Notpad and saved it as "All Files". (I also tried saving it as a txt file)

Can you paste the contents of miner.bat for me to see?

poclbm.exe -v -w 128 -f 30 --host=mining.bitcoin.cz --port=8332 --user=myusername --pass=mypassword

I have substituted "myusername" and "mypassword" with the real one in the actual file

What type of video card do you have?

EDIT: Sorry, reread the first post.

Download and install the ATI Stream SDK

http://developer.amd.com/Downloads/ati-stream-sdk-v2.1-vista-win7-64.exe

Once that is done, restart and try to run it again.

I have done this, ATI STREAM SDK is installed, current drivers, etc. Also I checked it with Geeks3D, all is well. I started Bitcoin and then the miner.bat file. Bitcoin is fine but the miner.bat file does nothing except open that DOS screen and close it in a split second.

Uncheck "Hide extensions of know file types" in folder options. Your bitcoin.conf is probably bitcoin.conf.txt

I did. I have created a File named bitcoin.conf in the Roaming/bitcoin folder. Just to be clear it is a File and not Folder, also how do I add to a .conf flie?

It's a standard text file. Open it in notepad, enter the text, and be sure to save it as "all files" so it doesn't change the file extension.

Ok that is done. Now when I start the miner.bat file a black DOS box pops up and goes away very fast cant tell what is says.

Did you make the folder under your username, not a new folder named user?

And are you sure it's a bitcoin.conf file (not a bitcoin.conf.txt file)

http://malektips.com/windows-7-view-file-extensions.html

Enable file extensions, and it should only show "bitcoin.conf"

You have to click properties first.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin.exe"-server

Like so?

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin.exe -server"
maybe like this
