      Ok, so I’ve got a block erupter for fun (Cheers Svenn! = ^-^=) But it is causing me nothing but grief…

      I can’t get the Zadig driver install to see my eruptor. The Silicon labs driver see’s thing fine…

      But Every version of cgminer I download doesnt have “cgminer-nogpu.exe” file… i’ve tried using -nogpu as a flag but I just can’t get this thing to mine ahy…

      If anyone is around to help, I will do many pleasurable things for you… just name your price.

        It might be worth compiling your own version of cgminer. Are u on windows or Linux as Linux is far easier to do.

        I have a few of these running on a raspberry pi this is the tutorial I used.

          I do have linux boot but for me, windows right now is far easier to use.

          Compiling my own version shouldn’t be necasery… Every other windows user seems to be fine…

          What’s messing with me is the fact that no version of cgminer i get has “cgminer-nogpu.exe”

              Wolfbot sent me a pm.

              This is the cgminer I use on my miners, it has a no-gpu.exe. [Link scrambled by calem] http://www.file-upload.net/XXXXXXXXXXXXX/cgminer.rar.html [Link scrambled by calem]

              Maybe it works.

              cheers,
              Wolfbot

              But I won’t download from anything but github or sourceforge etc…

              If anyone wants the link from me he sent to check it for trojans etc, that would be neat but I’m not game enough.

              What version are u trying? Mine was 3.1.1

              I’ve tried 4, 3.11, 3.1, 3.6 and others…

              I can find no reference to “cgminer-nogpu.exe” anywhere, yet all the walkthroughs ive seen beleive that the file exists.

                Don’t worry about it guys… Thank you for your help but I’m giving up.

                I’m just too cranky right now to concentrate…

                I’ll try again tomorrow ahy. Hopefully svenn can lend me a hand.

                  /me Sheds a small tear…

                  I think it’s working…

                  After a lot of swearing and cursing… After more copy and pasting I care to recall. After ditching cgminer and having a solid mess around with bfgminer… I think. I think it’s working…

                  I’m still getting an error which I’m yet to google, but my my pool is telling me I’m receiving shares…
