Thanks guys. I wound up using stock A2 Mega Terminator firmware - works good. Of the 10 machines I have I replaced 8 PSU's. Not cool. They were cheap-o 1000W PSU's not even 80 PLUS rated..... BOOO!!! Replaced with 1300 W EVGA 80PLUS Brozne. Everything is wonderful now. Thanks again!
bronze PSU's really ? so you are probbaly wasting (1200*1.15) = 1380 drawn from the wall ( which is even more terribe since you gain nothing from using a more 240v efficient power source.) vs a 80 gold or PSU (1200*1.08) = 1296 thats a difference of 84 watts per hour/per UNIT. remeber these boxes are not a typcial applicaint they run 24/7 so thats 1920 watts daily wastesed per unit per day multiply that by 10 you are throwing away 19200 watts a day . Not much on a daliy basis but it will add up . I would suggest you put those PSUs up for sale and slowly replace them with 80 plus gold units as soon as you make each sale. |

you dont want those driver anyways you want the most current drivers from the AMD site you dont need the disk
if this is windows and you are going from nvidia to ATI you will have to totally clean the nvidia stuff off and download and install the ATI catalyst drivers for starters

In my case it appears it was a crap PSU. I have that A2 working right now, running 1200, but I am only getting 88mhs out of it. It's running great, I was going to work on changing the other settings this week. BTW I had to plug in the power to the blades backwards in order for it to work.
On my other one, it works and runs for a little bit but then powers off. During the time working, it starts out at 88mhs then slowly dwindles down to 6mhs then it powers off. I am assuming I have bad blades or something.
i had the same problem check to make sure that your NEW pusu PCI-E ooutputs match what is on the orignal PSU. If you look closelsy some of these are flipped lukcliy the miner board is smart enough not to provide power when the pins are reversed. I good way to bring an A2 back to life is unplug all the blades and plug in power to board and see if it starts. Then plug in power to a single one start the machine , flip PCI-E if the A2 won't come back on rinse repeat |

ethoreum is the last chance of getting rich in crypto, hype on.
Ethereum is the last chance of getting rich if you bought the ICO. Otherwise you will get dumped on by the ICO holders. This is why you do not take advice from so called forum know-it-alls if i had listed to you shills/haters i would never have bought a bunch of eth at .6 and doubled my money in a few days in summary : the shills for eth said - "you missed out on ICO you fucked up i will be rich you will be poor !!!" the haters - SCAM, SCAM, PREMINE .... SCAM!!! me - fuck em all , buy low sell High A word of advice to .. do your own DD take your own risks with what you can afford to lose , in this wild wild west of Crypto KNOW one really knows ANYTHING. The more a person tries to tell you what will happen really means that person is that much more clueless probably knows less than you LOL. |

i lost a decent amount of money with gaw  i am slowing trying to recoup loses :/ Not trying to be mean, but what were you thinking? Everyone in the Bitcoin community was shouting at the top of their lungs for people to get out of that scam. no its a fair enough question  i started my altcoin/ bitcoin experience on hashtalk, i briefly came here but i quickly migrated there, i was seduced by the smooth cloud mining interface and got sucked in very quickly. i eventually only heard all the good things and went into denial about the bad stuff. i was incredibly new and i treat my loses as a lesson  Dont feel bad bro , I personally should have know better i wont say i was a Vet but i should have know better as well, probbaly lost around 3-4K in the paycoin Fiasaco. |

I don't care of the boards are not working, or the PI, I would prefer one with a working controller board but we can negotiate a lower price if the controller board is broken too.
what I do need - the heatsinks need to be attached to the boards and the wiring and Gpio cables are needed as well.
thanks

IPO price for me was 30 cents. But that's immaterial. I would not sell at $3. I wouldn't even sell at $10. It's the only coin since Bitcoin with a long term future outside a pump and dump by scammers.
Totally not a trader, but I've been buying since 0700AM Eastern. And I just bought a good amount at .0039. I don't think we're going to dump either. I may be long on it. But we're in the middle of this new asset pump and potentially an epic LTC pump, I'm not really sure to do strategically. I hope it works out and all of you are careful. Please don't allocate more funding than you can afford. This outcome of trying coordinate chaos will be an unmitigated disaster,,,and I can't fuckin' wait! LTC will go nowhere. ETH will suck market cap from all shitcoins as its the best chance of a moon situation on the market. I'm not even talking about a huge pump I'm talking about literally taking over the world. The same potential as BTC had but much more insidious. way to go out on a limb |

Funny looking dump going on. It's like a reverse dump.
Just some waves... Just watch them crash on the beach soon  Still a lot of coins to hit the exchanges imo.. 500% return in 1.5 year after investment is still great for "normal" investors.. Not the spoiled crypto kids. Where do you fools keep getting threse stupid inflated IPO profit #s they bought at 2000 eth per 2014 BTC not 2015 BTC dumbass That's 2000/630 Not 2000/270 If anything its a 200% profit if they can sell at six which still nice is nothing compared to what they deserve for the risk They took None of the IPO investors will even make any profit unless it goes above 3 If anyone is making $$ right now its those who bought far Belo the IPO price and the devs |

There be a lot of crying bagholders around, other than hype what has it going for it - No hard cap unlimited supply
- Open source software so plenty of better copys
- Upcoming Rollback
- No wallet
- A dev running around in his goofy underwear
- ......
Currently Kraken ETH/BTC $0.699954 I assume one of the devs dumped a massive amount he had as a part of his premine and even sold the BTC and cashed out to fiat, just an idea of we saw a small btc dip. Get real bro they can't afford to rollback shit |

Is this the next Paycoin fiasco?
Nothing will Rival the paycoin fiasco, at least with ethereum if it does go down as a scam only speculators and ICO investors will be screwed with Paycoin he scamed housewives , regular 9-5vers who were just dipping their feet into the cloud mining thing. Bascially he scammed a HUGE cross section of the general ecosystem and basically soured the average joe on digital currencies |

www.Mining-Ether.comCurrently you need to allow 'access control expose headers' if you don't in your browser. The Etherchain API does not have the headers for this loaded in, so I couldn't get cross domain requests to work, they kept getting rejected for "No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource" if anybody has any ideas. Anyways, if the calc doesn't load for you, you can install that CORS plugin and it will work. Hope to have that resolved soon. These numbers will look similar if you use a pool, haven't tried solo mining against them yet, so please let me know. The estimations on this for my pool mining have been between max +- 1 ETH so far. Hope it helps some miners out there. its not working in chrome or IE for mw |

yeah those are my go to PSU's as well for everything they are great , plus they even have a plastic piece for running them withoute a board. I do the same, replace the junk a2 psu's as the fail with those |

So I bought a couple of break out boards a few months ago and it seem they are not working now? The fans on the psu wont spin , I thought the psus were bad ( 2880 IBM ones )
But I got two brand new psus off eBay and its the same deal, first two green lights go on
Psu starts to get super hot BC fans wont activate
I've tried sp20s ants 🐜. Any ideas?
Hi, it will depend on the date you ordered the boards. The very first batch had some trouble because the pins dimensions were out of specs, so the contact wasn't perfect on the signal to turn on the psu or the fans. The batches after that have signal pins soldered systematically to avoid any trouble, even if the pins are now to specs. You can probably see even without removing the white plate if the pin to turn on the PSU is soldered the one under the "n" is usually visible from the outside. the one in the square under the "H" turns the fans on. Good catch I was able to fix one of the breakout boards by resoldering the contact , now the PSU works so fuck me I have 2 extras of these PSUs and nothing for them to power if you could have told me to check that bit on the breakout boards when I first had the issues could have saved me a bit of cash. I'll have to feebay the extra PSU's The other breakout board seems to be toast probably would have to take it apart to figure out what's wrong with it but yeah its the breakout boards since the one I "Fixed" powers the fans on all the PSU's now even the used ones I got from you. If you soldered both pins on the second breakout board the last thing that can fail is the switch. There are two holes next to it that I use for testing purpose and can also be used for a remote switch. You can connect both holes with a paperclip to bypass the switch. Spacing is also correct to solder 2 pins and use a jumper. I'll take a look at those two holds and I didn't solder anything on the other one (not working one) , I looked at all the pins and they seem to make contact. The switch works though since the unit actually powers on , I'll send you a PM for another two breakout boards and worry about fixing this one later. I don't have anything for these units to power until I get my alcheminer fixed though. |

Put them back to the stock firmware or try the new one by Antz

Played with the image and liking it so far, one thing though it defaults to 1200mzh
Which my miner with a weak psu cuased it to go into a die loop before I could find the ip and set it to 1100
I ended up throwing in a new psu just so I could try your firmware
P.s how come no over clock options? Either way really nice work
