Thanks for the reply !!
I should have plenty of voltage on the hub for more than just these two. I have swapped ports in the hub, and still same. I bought them separately, and one was in sealed package, one not.
I see versions of cgminer on several sites. For win 10 I have have no idea what version I should upgrade to, or what source site to trust. ??
I have a voltmeter, could use on unit and adjust potentiometer which I see, but where do I put my test leads?
Topic: Why would one Gekko 2Pac zombie and the other not? (Read 95 times)
I have two 2pak's running on a powered hub (fan cooled) to a win10 laptop. One zombies a lot, about every 3-4 hrs. I have to shut them both down to restart them.
Any clue why one would do that and the other not? Im running cgminer 4.10 I see many conflicting reports on newer versions so have been afraid to move to a newer one. Would that be my issue?

From what i can find on the internet, it definitely shouldn't hurt to upgrade to a newer version.

Dealing with ZOMBIEs/OFF:
ZOMBIE/OFF state occurs when chip voltage needs > voltage supplied.
Monitor usb port voltage drops, adjust frequency down and/or adjust potentiometer.
Might the amount of voltage your miners have access to possibly be the issue here? ZOMBIE/OFF state occurs when chip voltage needs > voltage supplied.
Monitor usb port voltage drops, adjust frequency down and/or adjust potentiometer.
