Put the bat-file in the same directory as the phoenix.exe, and it should work just fine. If you do that, you wont need the command for changing directory.

Does Mt. Gox have any transfer fees?
Sadly they dont accept namecoins or litecoins :/

Ive been trying different miners, but damn there's alot of difference.
BitMinter = 650 Mhash/s
phoenix-1.7.2 = 640 Mhash/s (-k phatk2 DEVICE=0 VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=7)
guiminer = 500 Mhash/s
I cant really get guiminer to work properly - im getting alot of unexpected errors, and the GPU load is like a sawtooth.
And phoenix gives me quite a few "work queue empty, miner is idle" :/
Which miner and settings would you guys recommend for a HD5970 ?

Solo? Pool? Where? Lots of blocks have been mined in last few days.
https://bitminter.com/blocksLast BTC block was minted 2 days and 5 hours ago.. Whats up with this? Really bad luck?
Well i assume you are talking about our current block at bitminter. Yes it is bad luck but 4000000 shares is by far not the worst i have seen. Edit: Since our hashrate is below 100 GH/s it takes some time to mine such blocks down. Other pools do 8 million blocks in one day or even faster but with less reward. What other big pools are there? |

Bought another 5970  Lets see what this can do.. any advices on the settings for the BitMinter? |
|

Just as the title states: Recommend me a good online wallet, with these conditions: - Static recieve address - Wallet for BitCoin - Wallet for NameCoin Would be nice if it could store LiteCoins aswell, but its not an absolute need. Fire away! |

Cool, i paid around 350 USD - so it seems like an OK deal. Thanks for the link! At below $400 this is pretty much nothing that beats the 5970 in MH/W or MH/$. For used cards the 5870 is slightly cheaper (~$150) than 5970 (~$300) but the higher density of the 5970 makes up for that IMHO. Cool, maby i should get a 2nd one then Im currently using BitMinter Client - is there a better miner out there? |

So.. which GPU gives the most bang for the buck? I currently have a HD5970 which puts out roughly 600 Mhash/s.
Is there a comparison somewhere?

If your goal is simply to have an address where you can store coins to sell for other coins or fiat then it is a lot easier to simply direct your coins to an exchange address (cryptoXchange and BTC-E both have permanent NMC addresses for deposits). Bitcoinparking for some idiotic reason changes deposit addresses on each deposit so trying to use the same address results in your "losing" (to them) any coins sent there.
Which of them would you recommend? run your own namecoind? on windows: 1. extract namecoind 2. navigate to where you extracted using cmd 3. "start namecoind" 4. wait a while (or it won't respond) 5. "namecoind getinfo" now it's working! Aha! That actually seems to be working!  So its just a daemon running in the background? But i would still prefer to store my namecoins somewhere online |

Possibly. Although if you are using the latest AMD drivers (11.12), that also doesnt help. Try bitminter, see my signature. Its easy to use and among the fastest for radeon 5xx0 cards. You can also try cgminer, but its a bit more hassle to set up.
BitMinter is running at a total of 572 Mhash/s, so a good 120 Mhash/s more than GUIMiner! |

Around 660 MH/s with cgminer or bitminter I think. There is absolutely no point running the card at 1000 MHz memory though. Clock it as low as it will go, it wont hurt performance (in fact, it may marginally increase performance) and it will save you a fair bit of heat/electricity.
Im only getting 220 Mhash/s pr. GPU - so a total of 440 Mhash/s. Is that because of the miner im using? |

How many Mhash/s should i get with an ATi HD5970 running at standard clock (725/1000) ??
Im currently using the GUIMiner v2011-08-24.

I followed the instruction, but it doesnt seem to work. I downloaded the file, ran it and it told me where to put the conf-file - so i did. I made a file called bitcoin.conf with this info: rpcuser=your_user rpcpassword=your_pass rpcport=8336 daemon=1 server=1 With a user and pass i chose. I then ran the namecoind.exe again, but nothing happends  Im getting this if i terminate by ctrl+c: " C:\Namecoin>namecoind.exe
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'DbException'
what(): DbEnv::close: Invalid argument" |

I think there's some confusion here.
Do ya'll mean a ".bit" address or an address where you can receive namecoins?
"Your Namecoin address for receiving rewards" - that |

Okay, maby im just being tired, but.. i just dont get how im gonna get a namecoin address! Could someone explain it to me? Thanks guys |
