Title: MultiMiner / Windows correctly recognizing all devices.
Post by: jaredfarnum on December 13, 2013, 05:52:21 AM
DO TO DUMB $^@&#! RULES ON BITCOIN FORUM, I YET AGAIN CAN NOT POST TO THE CORRECT PLACE!!

I HATE HOW THIS FORUM IS RUN!! THEY SEEM TO LOVE TO PISS OF USERS.

LUCK FOR ME, I COPIED MY POST BEFORE I SUBMITTED.

----------------

I am having trouble with MultiMiner (or Windows) finding all erupter devices. It finds only 7 of the 10. I have already tried unplugging the erupter from the USB hub and plugging back in and also scanning hardware again. No luck.

I just began to use MultiMiner and came from Bitminter.

Bitminter on Mac had NO issue finding all devices and it working perfectly. Bitminter on Windows also had challenges finding all devices, so therefore I am guessing that it may not be MultiMiner but Windows issue.

Anyway, any suggestions?

Thank you

Make sure that you have the drivers (http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/pages/usbtouartbridgevcpdrivers.aspx) installed and perhaps try re-installing them. If you have messed with other miners or drivers at all that can cause issues and conflicts.

Even last night Windows (or MultiMiner) "forgot" 2 asicminers. I woke up to find that 2 of them had the dreaded solid green light, turned on my monitor and sure enough, 2 of them stopped working for no apparent reason. I unplugged them and they are now running on my Bitminter / Mac just fine so it is not the devices themselves.

Thank you I will try updating the drivers.
