Title: Help with BFGMiner/getting started mining? Please? Post by: skiman on October 15, 2017, 04:24:57 AM Hi,
I'm rather new to crypto mining in general. I'm currently working on setting up GPU mining from my Radeon R9 290X. I'll be mining Creamcoin from the following pool: stratum+tcp://stratum.chainworksindustries.com:5205 It's just not working. It's repeatedly outputting: OCL 0: Using work with lower difficulty than device supports OCL 0: Using work with lower difficulty than device supports Coinbase check: multiple inputs in coinbase: 0x87 OCL 0: Using work with lower difficulty than device supports OCL 0: Using work with lower difficulty than device supports Coinbase check: multiple inputs in coinbase: 0xbc Etc. At the top of the window, beneath version and manage devices and all that, (all pools are dead) Beneath that: ST:3 F:0 NB:13 AS:0 BW:[ 36/ 3 B/s] E:0.00 BS:8 1 39.0C | 13.23/ 9.50/ 0.00Mh/s | A:0 R:5+0(100%) HW:0/none ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OCL 0: 39.0C | 13.20/ 9.50/ 0.00Mh/s | A:0 R:5+0(100%) HW:0/none My batch file to run the miner consists of exactly the following, of course with personal details redacted: bfgminer -S opencl:auto -o stratum+tcp://stratum.chainworksindustries.com:5205 -u myusername.minername -p minerpassword That's it. Am I doing something wrong? Is there an issue with my system? Also, if anyone has a link to a "For dummies" guide on crypto mining in general I would highly appreciate it. ;) Title: Re: Help with BFGMiner/getting started mining? Please?

Is this a dumb question? Probably because your not posting in the support thread for the software your using. And asking altcoin questions in the Bitcoin section. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=556244.msg6060876#msg6060876 Title: Re: Help with BFGMiner/getting started mining? Please?

No replies in either of those locations. Title: Re: Help with BFGMiner/getting started mining? Please?

Post by: Sir William on October 16, 2017, 05:56:40 AM To the best of my knowledge, BFGMiner does NOT support the X11 Algo, which is what this coin is. BFGMiner supports SHA256 & Scrypt only, unless you have a modified version. You need a copy of SGMiner v5 or better.
