Title: Help setting up a USB Scrypt miner on Windows
Post by: BitWhizz16 on August 24, 2016, 05:45:38 PM
Hey guys, before I begin please excuse my noob questions here, i am brand new to the world of CryptoCurrency, and have mainly been doing reading and research. I have decided to start mining LiteCoin with Litecoinpool.org and so bought 2 Dragon Scrypt USB Miners, pic below.

After a lot of tutorials I began to set it up, I joined LiteCoinPool, used the built in interface to edit my pool login details and started the program. No matter what I try I get one of the two messages below, usually number 1, but I did once get number 2, only to be replaced by 1 when I closed and re opened the controller.

I really have no idea what is happening, as it's all jibberish to me, the strangest part is at one point it has worked, for a couple of seconds, because LiteCoinPool.org shows I have 0.000019942272 LTC as my balance?

Any help is really appreciated as Iv been trawling this forum, Reddit and Google for a week now to no luck :(
