Solo mining with an nvidia card is going to take you a very long time to get anything. You would be much better off joining a mining pool. Your card gets 10mh/s on btc according to the wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison) so that would be around 1kh/s usng the 1/10th rule of thumb.
According to https://www.litecoinpool.org/calc?hashrate=1&difficulty=404.82011437 you are going to be waiting over 20,000 days for a block!

diving right in and trying to get my head around bitcoin/litecoin. Downloaded and am running litecoin wallet in server mode according to the tutorial I found here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/tutorial-solo-mining-litecoins-guide-windows-83371
have reaper running and also set the wallet to mine as to itself (not sure if this works but seems to.... afaik).
video card is an Nvidia Quadro NVS 420
basically I'm just looking for confirmation that I'm doing this correctly....
reaper.exe litecoin.conf:
Reaper.exe window shows this:
Does this all appear to be correct for solo mining?
