Title: namecoin help on windos xp
Post by: eskamobob1 on August 16, 2011, 05:22:17 AM
hey guys,

i am currently trying to set up namecoin on my mining rig to give it a try, but i cant seem to get it working... i have followed all the steps here (http://dot-bit.org/InstallAndConfigureNamecoin), but i get suck at step 6 because my program will not let me type anything in, nor will it do anything at all... i have searched online for answers, but i cant find anything... will someone please point me in the right direction?

thank you in advance

In windows:

1 - Open up a command prompt windows (start -> run -> 'cmd' enter)
2 - 'CD (location of namecoind.exe)' enter
3 - 'namecoind (command)' enter
