Thankyou!

you the man! time for a holiday me thinks!

Once you get it going, there are plenty of torrents of mountain lion on the web. (10.7)

you can install them onto a usb stick and reinstall from there. fairly easy process to do. google it if you must.. much info out there as its the way you need to go if your on a macbook air..

but remember back up your wallet.dat lol..

Oh yes, a bit of coin trading, and about two years of mining @ 2gh/s.

i turned all the rigs off now however, electricity was killing me and was pretty much break even.

now i have the coins back i can start trading a little again.. should sell my 5970's and pay the electricity bill too

beautiful.. thankyou so much..

whats your bitcoin address..

as soon as i can transfer them i will send you some too. along with the creator of that program if he ever sends me his address..

where would the wallet.dat file be located on my linux desktop usb?? is it called wallet.cpp or wallet.h on linux?

permissions denied to open/copy that file still?

Nope i thought i mentioned it wasnt encrypted..

anyway its now done, 110 keys found.. however in ubuntu i am having troubles copying the file that has been made.

it has a lock on it and i cant copy move or anything with this file.

i am using ubuntu desktop off a usb stick so its not installed? i have not created a persistent drive with this install also.. so when i restart the computer i am back to square one..

so i am running this again to get the 110 keys once more and will leave the computer on

can someone help me with this step?? seems to me like file permissions? says its owned by root?

Hey guys thanks for the extra help and advice here, i am just running .3 now after being away all weekend.

i know a little about data recovery but have never really dove this far into it before.

i dont think i zero'd out data on the format, just did a quick format.

if this .3 tool fails to recover again i will be talking to cassicaus , and perhaps trying the quick script above.

but in the end if its gone i guess its gone

I got a few computers, the drives is out and connected up to a linux machine which i ran them programs and found nothing. however using hex editor/search i can find instances of 0420 so maybe all isnt lost. casascius is going to work on it next week for me so with a bit of luck there is something still there.

mac windows etc.. its all the same when your looking at it this way..

So i have completed the program linked up above by Revalin but it recovered nothing at all...

am i doomed or what? there is a considerable amount of coins here pretty much all my mining efforts gone..

i do have some of the publc keys i used to transfer the coins to this wallet.

Still going along with it.... had to use one of my mining rigs, to get it working and in the process now! for about the 3rd time. macbooks dont like to boot from usb with linux no more..

bout 40% the way thru but its still showing no keys found.

the drive was almost at capacity when i formatted it with the bitcoin wallet a new addition (hence why i just forgot about it) all i did was format and install a fresh os on it. so heres hoping that it can be recovered.

i did try a few other disk recovery tools but were all pretty shit.

I'm sure this will help.

i have the hard drive out of the computer. plugged into a usb adapter and powered on connected to another mac i have..

just reading that thread now cheers.

I am stupid and forgot about my coins on my computer. i have formatted and now i think my coins are gone? is there any way i can recover my wallet.dat file? if thats the file i am after?

is there any way i can get them back at all? i am using a Mac, with fresh install of osx 10.7

Nice! just made a deposit!

great to see you back up and running

Is there any reason why my machine running cgminer (latest version) has my hash rate @ 760mh/s yet the average over the past few weeks has always been down around 550 on the slush pool page??

has the pool been suffering alot of down time? my end seems ok

I have only been mining 4 months so far.

Now have found 3 blocks in total however only earnt 91btc so far. (just under 1700mh/s)

Found me a block! woohoo!

sapphire hd6870's the funny thing is it was working perfectly. then i had to restart the system and ever since then its not worked. even after updating versions. and reinstalling the drivers. i might try to go 125mhz lower and see what happens.

otherwise using trixx is working ok, but a bit annoying as if there is a problem its a bit of stuffing about to get it going properly again.

I'm Still having some issues with Windows 7 & cgminer. regarding Memory clock. i can adjust core clock fine within cgminer.. or by using the .bat file. i cant adjust the mem clock in cgminer. or with the .bat file

i've removed catalyst drivers and reinstalled (latest version)

i'd obviously like to adjust the mem clock as its too hot and draws 450w instead of 300w when it was running mem @ 250

any help??

the good part is i have my 6870's running @ 320mh/s, but still..

Edit:

So i open Trixx to manually clock via trixx. which seems to have 0 effect.. however i can change the clocks in cgminer on one card correctly.
but my second card changes to rather small values i didnt punch in..

i'd really like to swap this rig over to be dedicated on linux but i have no idea when it comes to linux
