first off you may want to ask the bitminter thread.  I used to be able to do a lot more then 8 sticks.

but usb  block erupters are really old gear

I can tell you a few thing about usb sticks.  You need good hubs.  with good hubs you should be able to do a lot more then 8 sticks.

What OS are you using?  WinXP tops out at around 12, WinVista tops out at 50, Win7 60.  I don't think *nix has a limit.

be sure you check that there is enough power for your mining machine

Are you using POWERED USB hubs?

Check if your hubs are powered. I run 12 U2s on Bitminter at 2.4ghs each, and it works fine.

He made 1 post and hasn't come back in 2 months. You can all stop answering now... if he reappears he can pick up from then.
