Title: Trouble Pool Mining with DeepBit
Post by: morris14ccm on June 28, 2011, 02:52:55 AM
So i followed this guide:
http://www.newslobster.com/bitcoin/how-to-set-up-pooled-bitcoin-mining-in-windows

I tried to set up a pooled mining account with DB. I made the .bat file as instructed and when i run it it shows the MHashs/s I'm doing in a cmd window, and occasionally says something about a new block, but when i go to my DB account it says I've done nothing. Doesn't even list my average mhash/s for the last 10 minutes. not sure what's wrong.

Any advice? Can anyone trusted TeamView me?

Thanks in advance.

What's your hash speed? It's possible it's so low it rounds to zero so far as you've generated no shares yet.

If you measure how often it rains only looking at a two day period, odds are your answer will be 'never'.

hash speed is like 3500KHash/s. using an i5 2500k right now as i cant get my 4670 to work with Open CL. Plan on getting a new card soon, but want to be fully setup first.

An i5-2500K does about 20MHash/s. By my math (and I'm not very confident in it) you should generate a share every 3 minutes on average.

At 3,500 khash, you're looking at one share every 18 minutes or so on average. If you don't see one in 40 minutes, something is likely wrong.
