Title: need help with cgminer Post by: aminkorea on August 13, 2013, 11:50:22 PM I am trying to set up a batch file for cgminer. My file looks like this
cgminer.exe -o http://mypool:8332 -u my.worker1 -p mypass --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 -S //./COM3 [/sup} I have the script saved in my cgminer file folder. when I click the bat file, the dos screen flashes for a scond but dose not stay open. If I remove the icarus information, cgminer starts but fails to detect any devices and then crashes. I have looked for other examples and help, but can't get this working. Any help, please?

Here is the how... install it. Unzip it, create a batch file with the command I posted below and your good to go. Download from HERE ONLY! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=168174.0 Create a Batch File (.bat) in your in windows. Code: bfgminer -o stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333 -u UserID_worker -p **** --disable-gpu -S all ^^Make sure that the .bat file is in the same folder as BFG. This will disable the GPU/Video Cards Code: --disable-gpu and this will detect all ASIC Erupters and to load all of them to run. Code: -S all Quote Also Make you install the driver for the erupter...

I got bfg installed and wrote the bat file. when I ran the file it gives the message that I don't have permission to open COM 3. I have the drivers installed and can find the devise in the device manager and there are no settings for admin. any ideas?
