Hi,
I am using Windows 8.1. I have purchased a USB Asicminer Block Erupter 333 MHs and I am trying to make it work.
I tired two approaches, they didn't work each in their own way. I need some help if you can please give me some pointers as to what may be wrong.
Approach #1: I followed this guide to the letter, using cgminer v3.1.1
http://bitcoinbtc.net/usb-asicminer-setup-how-to-setup-usb-asicminer-block-erupter/The command line in this case is:
cgminer-nogpu.exe -o stratum+tcp://my.pool.com:myport -u myusername.worker -p anything --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 -S //./COM4
Approach #2: Instead of using the Silicon Labs driver 6.6.1.0, I downloaded and used zadig so that the device now appears under Universal Serial Bus Contollers group in device manager, isntead of under Ports when used with the Silicon labs driver.
Under this setting, the cgminer version 3.8.3 is supposed to automatically identify it, no need for all the parameters anymore, so the command line is (no more -nogpu):
cgminer.exe -o
http://my.pool.com:myport -u myusername.worker -p anything
I was never able to get anything accepted. I tried the same miners in cpu and gpu modes, they are working and work got accepted, so internet connection and pool credentials are ok.
The dump is at the following imagebin:
