Bitcoin Forum

Hi, been thinking about mining for a long time now, but I am struggling to set up properly, and forgive me if this is in the wrong thread on the forum  ::)

I have registered on mining.bitcoin.cz, set up my worker etc

When I try and mine, the message at the bottom of the guiminer say's


I don't understand, it is exactly how I have it set up in my account page on the slush site, under 'worker'

Can anyone advise more where I should be looking for the mistake?

Thanks in advance

Add a dot followed by a worker ID (something to identify this particular installation). Like '.machine1' or something.

Still getting an error  ???

Just say's bad user credentials in the gui, but <username>.<my miner user name> is the same as registered on the pool website

Well can anyone recommend me a pool to sign up to that is good for a beginner and decent pay outs?

If your login name at bitcoin.cz is sgtmunky and you registered a worker called worker1 then the username for your miner is sgtmunky.worker1.

Some that I've been using:
bitcoin.cz
deepbit.net
bitcoins.lc
They all are easy, but some basic logic skills are required. bitcoins.lc doesn't take a fee.

Ok I changed the way I log in on my GUI, and now when I click start it just hangs the computer

Proper confused  :'(

Ahh I give up, can't get it to work at all

umm have you tried some different miner?

Maybe you have a problem with hardware or drivers.
