You probably need Kanos fork. The pre built binaries work fine with the BFL devices though.
Yes, that's where the winner of the bounty comes into play.
Tried Ufasoft yet? No idea if it works but its worth the 5 mins it'll take to find out.

Hi thanks for the hints. I don't have a BFL yet. Only one Icarus. Have you guys tested it with Icarus ?
Not personally, but I know it works.
Oops, I claimed in another thread that official cgminer Windows binaries are without FPGA support and thought this will have to wait until Con is back. That's the price to pay for not following bitcointalk 24/7
Sorry for that, Turbor.
I'd like to at least approve that the given binary works, but it does not work without OCL dlls and I can't install them in my VirtualBox guest system
Icarus does NOT work with cgminer i have !

4. Realize that 2.3.1-2 doesn't have FPGA support enabled in prebuilt binaries
I'm running it right now. Must be magic.
They will.
Here are some steps for you:
1. Download this - http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/cgminer-2.3.1-2-win32.zip
2. Unpack it
3. Run it
4. Realize that 2.3.1-2 doesn't have FPGA support enabled in prebuilt binaries
5. Don't Profit.

Nope !
Right, you probably need one of the forks.
Try ufasoft in the mean time (link in the above post). It's no slower or faster than cgminer.

Edit: Not working with Icarus ! It has to work with both of them.

If you're stuck for which commands to use, create a new text file, rename it to run.bat, right click and edit it, enter the following:
cgminer -o http://yourpooladdress:portnumber -u yourusername -p yourpass -S COM7 --disable-gpu
COM7 in the above is the COM port your BFL or whatever is installed on. It'll show you this in a bubble down the bottom right when you plug in your BFL, or you can go to Device Manager to find out the COM port. Use the --disable-gpu flag on the end if you don't want to mine with your GPU's as well, obviously
Or you can just use this - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ufasoft-miner-windowslinux-x86x64-sse2opencl-open-source-3486 which I believe detects the COM port automatically for you.

why won't the current binaries work?
I need a windows (7 32) version of cgminer to mine with BFL and Icarus. Unzip and ready to mine. Pay 5 bitcoins.
