A couple of years ago, i setup a pair of ASIC USB miners on a usb hub. The software running them was CGminer - I had a string in the shortcut that set all the params (login, usb id etc etc)
Well, friend said i should try Avast anti-virus....... HOLY COW, the damn thing HATES BTC!!! It removed all my shortcuts, software, backups... EVERYTHING that had bitcoin core i guess.
well, trying to setup the 2 miners now, I just cannot for the life of me get the string right (or even working)
they are on COM14 & COM26, I'm trying to use slush's pool
The CGminer version is 4.9.1, but I'm SURE i was using 3.1 before? Just cant find it to download it.
can anyone help with the string & possibly cgminer version?
Thanks
translation use a rasp pi or an old laptop with a powered usb hub for mining only.
Lastly those asic miners are now full out of date. they get .333 gh for 5 watts... while newer sticks get 10 gh for 5 watts. that is correct about 30x the efficiency.
