Title: My machine doesn't detect the CPU for mining.
Post by: Kalin79 on December 04, 2017, 03:31:38 PM
I have a little problem.
My computer (I mean the program) doesn't detect the CPU for mining.

My machine is
Mainboard: ASRock H61-DGS Chipset Intel Ivy Bridge rev. 09 BIOS American megatrends Inc. version P.1.40 date 7/11/2012
RAM: 4 GB DDR3-1333MHz
The CPU is Intel Core i3 3220 3,30 GHz Ivy Bridge Socket 1155 LGA
Video card: AMR Radeon R9 290X SAPPHiRE 4 GB - hashrate 700H/s on Cryptonight algorithm.
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit Service pack 1.

I use Nicehash Miner Legacy - ver. 1.8.1.5.

What should I do?
Any suggestions please?....

Thanks in advance. :)

CPU mining on a 5 year old processor will just lose you money, you should consider this a blessing in disguise.

Mine Credits(CRDS) right from your wallet. Nothing else to install. If your 64-bit operating system boots then you're good to go! Oh and it's CPU only as well so you're not competing with GPU miners thanks to its use of Argon2d.

Try this for CPU mining: http://etnpool.sytes.net/#simple_miner
Download and run it. You can mine XMR, ETN or another coins with Cryptonight algorithm into your wallet.
