As a newbie, I can only post here, and maybe the experts who can help won't be reading this?
Thank you. Title: Re: Please help! Trying to set up USB mining with BitMinter Post by: DrHaribo on July 30, 2013, 06:48:11 AM Did you disable the Java cache?

Trying to set up USB mining with BitMinter Post by: Benefactor on July 30, 2013, 08:02:00 AM Thank you for that. It still didn't work, because even in the 'classic view', I don't have Java showing up. I definitely have Java 7 on my computer, and uninstalled and reinstalled it, already, but it's screwed up. At one point, months ago, I was fed up with Java and started changing things.
I really don't want to be mining off of the proposed computer, anyway, (sour grapes), so how about this question: If I just needed a new computer to run 30 USB minters off hubs from, what could I get that would definitely work out of the box, but would be real cheap? (Really, I'm hoping for a budget under $200, if I can get that to work, hopefully for something 'new'.) What/where should I buy a new cheap computer for just mining? |
