Title: Block erupter issue
Post by: alnoor1231 on November 08, 2013, 07:44:10 PM
 So I`m trying to run 30 block erupters through 6 D-link hubs that are connected by a base hub to an old shitty computer. It`s running windows xp (32bit). The problem i keep getting is that only about half of the usb`s work and the others keep getting the "u need to install winUSB driver" error. I am using the ZADIG utility and have the dang driver installed on the computer. I`ve tried plugging each usb in and out and have tried the "replace" driver function on ZADIG. What am I doing wrong  ???
