Title: Newbie question-hopfully easily fixed Post by: tom3434 on June 16, 2011, 06:01:49 AM Hi, I am completely new to the whole bitcoin thing and as a poor uni student am very interested in the world of mining. I downloaded GUIminer and followed the simple instructions. I created a BTC Guild account and have been trying to figure out how to get to work since. When I click Start mining it says 'Starting' then says 'Connecting' but then just sits at Connecting. I have disabled all firewalls. What have I done wrong?
Here is my console.

Title: Re: Newbie question-hopfully easily fixed Post by: fascistmuffin on June 16, 2011, 06:12:32 AM Now I'll use them to..well.. mine bitcoins for you. Yeah, take that. The issue is not that but username/password replication. You wouldn't believe how many people use the same username login and password for every website they have an account for. We could totally hijack his facebook page! ;D Title: Re: Newbie question-hopfully easily fixed Post by: tom3434 on June 16, 2011, 06:16:35 AM haha, I realized that as soon as I posted it. Any suggestions on what I've done wrong?

Why just put mindless chatter on my post then leave it? Title: Re: Newbie question-hopfully easily fixed Post by: NothinG on June 16, 2011, 10:33:57 AM Try using the OpenCL to mine.
Title: Re: Newbie question-hopfully easily fixed Post by: tom3434 on June 16, 2011, 10:40:53 AM I have CUDA. Could I also have OpenCL or is it one or the other?
