Post by: Ian Maxwell on May 23, 2011, 09:24:40 PM Have you created a miner in your mining.bitcoin.cz account? Your login for your miner is not the same as your login for the website.

Then do I just use the <your username>.<login suffix> as my DiabloMiner login? Thanks so much for helping apologies for my incompetence :) |
