I recall having an easier time running them BGMiner with them back in the day. That said, have you tried running the VH fork of CGMiner 4.11.1? I find it works well with the old U1/U2's, but I haven't tested it with a U3.

Follow the directions in this thread for the VH CGMiner: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/gekkoscience-newpac-terminus-r606-bm1387-official-support-thread-5053833

You can also mess with the settings using the current version of CGMIner:

Code:
--au3-freq    Set AntminerU3 frequency in MHz, range 100-250 (default: 225.0)
--au3-volt    Set AntminerU3 voltage in mv, range 725-850, 0 to not set (default: 775)

Also, this thread has a lot of information: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=827356.1480

I haven't messed with the U3's in a years (almost 5 to be exact), but I had a bunch of issues with the few I had. I could never keep them running long term and had to replace fans and redo the thermal paste... I felt like I was always trying to doctor those things. That said, when they ran, they hashed in the 60GH/s range.

What software are you using? CGMiner or BFGMiner?
