Title: Help a Newbie with a couple questions
Post by: SuperNova22 on April 10, 2013, 09:11:28 PM
Hello! I have a two questions I need answered. First question, whenever I try and start up GUIMiner and press start mining, it instantly gets connection problems and Stale: 1 (1). Anyone know how to fix it?

My last question is, how much would an Elder Scrolls Online beta key be worth in BTC? (I'm not looking to buy yet, just wondering).

Thank you and have a good day. :)

Hi there:) For your 1st question : Are you solo mining (really???)  or using a pool?
If using a pool is the case then have you checked that your credentials are correct...in most's case you must provide the "worker" credential not your account on the pool credentials..
I could propably help you more if you could provide some more info like the pool that you are mining with..
Hope i helped:)

Thank you, but I'm 100% positive that the info I'm providing is correct. Though it always helps to double check. And I'm mining with slush's pool.

Ok..this is a Slush pool problem.. 8)
There is a small "Database-Refresh" thing going on atm.. Nothing to matter

Okay, so I found out my connection problems. No one knows how much a beta key is worth?
