Title: Antminer U1 help!!
Post by: legoman on January 08, 2014, 11:50:51 PM
Hi, has anybody successfully got one of these installed on Windows 7, I have followed the instructions which I downloaded, installed the drivers, input the usb sticks, changed the drivers from the native ones to the winusb like it shows in the image, I then run the adapted cgminer with the additional config but it won't find any devices? help I am at a total loss here, got these last Friday and still have not managed to get them working correctly. No videos on that popular video website (u-something?) that helps with these things normally, if anybody has set these up and did have to do things different to the guide but still got it working would be great to hear how, or better if you could make a video and put it on that site!

I am currently running them with no drivers and they are showing in bfgminer as icarus devices, but for some reason are limited to approx 0.95gh/s each at least that's something for the time being, hopefully sort this soon so I can run them correctly and get them overclocked as well!!

Thanks for any advice.

I'm currently running on windows 7. I found a lot of great info here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=390929.0
Start with only one plugged in first then, after you have the first one running, plug in the others. You also need this in you .bat file
Code:
--bmsc-options 115200:20 --bmsc-freq 0781
using 0781 will give you stock speeds, 0881 will be about 1.8gh/s, 0981 is about 2gh/s
