Title: Need Help to start Mining Post by: dilpickle on February 14, 2011, 06:15:23 PM So I am pretty new to Bitcoin although ive been lurking the forums for a while and ive got all my concepts down.
One I really want to try to do is mine. My machine i have right now only has an 8800gt Win7 64bit AMD 6000+ 3.0ghz so im not expecting any huge returns but i just think it would be fun to pitch in. (plus i dont have to pay for power) I setup http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1334.0 <<< this miner and I am having some trouble getting it to start. I am positive i i put everything in the right place and I have entered all the right commands. This is what i get when i start the .bat file, the cmd box immediatly closes after i open it. start /DC:\bitcoin\poclbm_py2exe_20101214 poclbm.exe --user=dilpickle --pass=maddyy --device=0 -w 256 File "poclbm.py", line 3, in <module> File "pyopencl\_init_.pyc", line 3, in <module> File "pyopencl\cl.pyc", line 12, in <module> File "pyopencl\_cl.pyc", line 10, in_load ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found Ive looked online but cant seem to find my error code Thanks Dylan Title: Re: Need Help to start Mining Post by: dishwara on February 14, 2011, 07:05:04 PM Just create a bat file & put it in the extracted poclbm_py2exe_20110204 folder where the poclbm.exe is.
The bat file of mine has this only C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\poclbm_py2exe_20110204\poclbm.exe -d0 --host=mining.bitcoin.cz --port=8332 --user=***** --pass=**** it opens command window & stays & runs. I am in pool mine so use host & port address. Since u not in pool, u have to use the username & password of the rpcuser & rpcpassword in the bitcoin.conf file. & no need for --host & --port The bitcoin.conf file for windows 7 is C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin For Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\Application Data\Bitcoin Windows Vista: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin Title: Re: Need Help to start Mining Post by: dilpickle on February 14, 2011, 07:41:02 PM well it seems you have solved my problem

Yes, the folder exists nowhere, coz in the place of "YOURUSERNAME" u should put windows login username. ex: Administrator, Guest.... |
