hey fellas, using the line minerd -a -t 6 -s 4 -o stratum+tcp://getsparkcoin.com:3333 (as suggested on getting started page) just crashes my miner on windows 8 however if I delete -a -t 6 -s 4 she works fine except for repeatedly "retry after 30 seconds" "stratum_rec_line failed" and "submit_upstream_work stratum_send_line failed.
Then when she does kick in she goes like a bullet, till she fails again.
I am a noob so don't roll your eyes at me
probably an easy solution.
Thanks in advance for your help, you guys rock!
try deleting -s 4 .. and changing the -t 6 with the number of your cpu thread.. if you have 6 thead then no need to change it.. hope can help
