Title: Hey. Just built my miner, need some help!
Post by: Tomtheman2 on September 07, 2013, 09:22:19 AM
Hi everyone,

Me and my friend have just built our miner. Its a ASIC Block Erupter Blade and we need some help setting it up.

I have been over and over the set up thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=205369.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=205369.0) but theres a couple of things I cannot figure out.

1. Do you have to run the Stratum Proxy to get the configure page to show on your browser?
2. I have seen other people saying you just power it on, type in a pool and leave it without the Proxy, is this correct?
3. I am using a Mac with little success. We have a Windows laptop but cannot seem to install Open GL? Do you NEED GUIMiner to run this?

Please can someone push us in the right direction with this as we are so damn confused after spending the past few nights trying to work this out.

Kind regards,
Tom
