Title: BFGMiner 3.6 on Windows 8.1
Post by: ford0415 on November 23, 2013, 07:39:13 PM
Everything is running fine... sort of. I've got my 330Mh/s USB Erupter working, my GeForce GTX 560 Ti is working, and even though it's kind of pointless, it's not detecting my processor (Intel i3-3240). I'd like to be able to use everything I have for hashing, just to speed up mining. Ideas?

CPU mining is not supported. GPU mining will probably be removed soon as well (if they follow the course set by CGMiner).

I'm not saying you're wrong, but the Linux version of BFGMiner uses my processors on my netbook.

You've compiled CPU support in then.

CPU support isn't compiled in to the Windows binaries.  But you'd know that if you'd bothered to read the READMEs...

Look, I don't always do what I'm told. :)
