Try the CPUMinerLTC easy launcher in my "BTC/LTC Newbie Tools for Windows" package: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/btcltc-newbie-tools-for-windows-updated-10152012-113707

Instructions are in the included "README".

still seems difficult. i got cpu mining. now i want my gpu mining

Use the cgminerLTC.bat launcher in that same package. Instructions are in the "README" file.

So I created this with all my info and put it in the same folder as the cpuminer...

Create a cfg.json like so:
[...]

Did you tell cpuminer to use your configuration file?

Code:

./minerd -c cfg.json

(This is described in the --help output, by the way.)
If you don't specify arguments, cpuminer will just use the default connection settings, and will try to connect to localhost:9332 without credentials.

If that is not the problem, please post the full output given my minerd.

oh. thought the executable automatically loads it

i put a script with minerd -c cfg.json in the folder

now it crashes when i open it

EDIT: put the url and stuff in bat fine now its working but still around <70Khash/s

getting same thing with two known different working pools

scrypt gui miner works but it only allows up to 8 threads

this one opens and says 12 threads started then gives the error:

json_rpc_call failed

So I am extremely new to all of this. I have done some research into mining and currently have my gpu mining for bitcoins. The only probably is it is a 680 and well, we all know nvidia cards simply aren't worth it.

So I wanted to try messing around with litecoin mining on my 5ghz 3930k. There seems to be very little "newb" help for setting this up. I have the latest version of cpuminer (2.2.3 64-bit for windows). I know I need to create some kind of config file but honestly I have no idea where to start.

I found this on the site of the pool I want to join. So I created this with all my info and put it in the same folder as the cpuminer...

Create a cfg.json like so:

{
"_comment1" : "Any long-format command line argument ",
"_comment2" : "may be used in this JSON configuration file",

"url" : "http://ltc.kattare.com:9332/",
"user" : "YOUR_USERNAME.1",
"pass" : "x",
"quiet" : true
}

So I did this (with my username and pass of course), but I am still receiving a "HTTP request failed" and "json_rpc_call failed" when trying to run the program.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
