I do not believe so. Unless you take it to a data recovery specialist and they tell you otherwise. Your friend may have just made a contribution to the "coins that will never be spent fund"
The specialist recovery ship has way sailed, the cleanest versions of the wallet file were taken on day one - whats coming up today is very fragmented rubbish. I'm guessing the first step would be to decrypt the file in such a way that it knows what is gap and what isnt? |

You might wanna search the forum. Just last week someone posted a script or tool to recover wallets from damaged drives, but I can't seem to find it now.
It will probably be easier to use a more thorough disk recovery tool with the hope of retrieving the complete file, than to restore a corrupt file.
Been searching for 4 hours, trust me. There is almost zero chance of a 100% complete file. I filled the disk(s) to 25% before I realised the backups were dead and I'd have to search. I scanned with literally every file scanner known to man and retrieved the best copies I could. The best ones are almost exactly the right size but just won't open. Its likely heart surgery will be required. |

Incoming pointless post. I am extremely envious that you've got 12x 2TH miners, whereas I've got nothing. Ah well, at least I've got my looks, youth and brains. If you'd like to make a trade for any of these, feel free to make an offer  Goat has climbed from slightly closer to the bottom, to where he is now. You can too - as long as you're hoofed. Good luck with the sale, the rest of us can dream and slobber   |

Hello all, need help trying to get back about 10btc, will be a reward depending on what we recover. tldr: - Encrypted wallet file, known pass
- Windows 8.1 installation fucked windows and needed a fresh wipe
- Naaively assumed the automated backups were actually backing stuff up
- Wiped and reinstalled
- They wern't.
- Last manual wallet.dat backup was 2-3 weeks old
- Recovered 80%, but atleast 10btc missing
- Recovered a number of likely incomplete wallet files
- Bitcoinqt and pywallet are both unable to open the file [unable to open wallet.dat, close bitcoin etc]
- Pywallet is set up correctly and can play with a known working wallet file
Now, where can we go from here? The vast majority of the addresses were recovered with the 2-3 week old file, so we only need a fraction of the addresses to be recoverable from these non-100% recovered files. Thanks Edit: Locking as I believe nothing was actually lost. |

Necro bumping this to say thanks. I burned a couple terminals because I screwed up on how you insert the wire into the terminal (dont ask me how). Also led me to finding replacement terminal blocks for the backplane. I hope I get them soon, so I can sell them as a ready-to-go kit.
If you don't pay attention its possible to put the wire between the metal and plastic rather than metal metal, causing the plastic to obviously burn. Its a bit of a flaw in design [room for user error], but hey, they cost nothing to make. |

Just got my GB3 AntMiner in today (amazing speed, I hadn't even been told it shipped yet) and this got me up and running. Thanks.
No problem  |

Although avalon messed up, the people invloved in this group buy have lost a fortune because HorseRider without consultation chose NOT to accept the refund that avalon offered.
I think he suffered most of the whole group since most of the Avalons are his if i'm not mistaken. And generally we as a group are no exception from any other batch 3 buyer. One man's loss is another man's gain proved painfully true in our case. Considering the amount of people and BTC's involved in the batch 3 delay i'm surprised that no one has sued Yifu yet. He did. The majority of the machines were his. He also didn't reject the refund, he requested a refund but they essentially forced the delivery on him. He decided it was better to take the machines over... well... nothing. |

I am having trouble getting my blades up and running in a data center.
They have no DNS. Does anybody know what I should put in the two fields for primary and secondary DNS?
Not sure about ports either.
Any help appreciated.
They must have a router, that's the primary DNS. Secondary can potentially be left blank or 8.8.8.8. Port is the port you connect to the blade on, ie 192.168.1.254: 8000 |

This isn't ebay, we're not retarded. If you want 4.5btc for an Avalon, go there.
Not sure what you're implying, anyone who shops on eBay is retarded...? Not quite sure I agree with you there. As for what I want, it's just something close to what the market has been yielding for the hardware. I'm happy accepting dollars rather than BTC, doesn't matter either way. What's 4.5 BTC anyway? BTC could be worth $200 dollars tomorrow, if that was the case I'd want a lot more than 4.5 of them. I said I want what ever the USD:BTC equal is, I never said anything about 4.5 BTC.... :/ Sign me up for 5000 units at 3000btc, they'll be worth 5 billion tomorrow. Added to ignore for now due to spammy siggy. |

I'm interested in a bulk buy with cash in hand would actually be preferable. Don't forget that eBay charges a good 10-15%. Where are these located?
Trust: -11: -2 / +0(0) Warning: Trade with extreme caution! Thats impressive. Don't base prices here off ebay...
If you want ebay pricing go to ebay.. also can you make your sig spam bigger?
+1 +1. This isn't ebay, we're not retarded. If you want 4.5btc for an Avalon, go there. |

Seems legit.. Just preordered 10 units! WOOOH 30 TH!! Don't joke about this, newbies will read that and actually order. Who order this obviously scam deserve to got punished, sorry to say. Yes they do, but allowing money to be given to scammists just breeds more scammers and scams. We don't want that here, its not good for those of us who don't fall for them either. |

Quick question, and I think the answer will be "yes, but don't run both in high clock". Because I suck with hardware knowledge, makes sense to ask here before I buy or fry, I mean try, anything new I have this PSU hooked up to one Asicminer Cube using both PCIE outputs:  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0092ML0OC/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1If I get 2 of these can I pull off a second Cube off the same PSU?  http://www.amazon.com/Startech-PCIE-POWER-SPLITTER-CABLE/dp/B00512IKE0/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1387427592&sr=8-6&keywords=pcie+power+plug+splittersI think I read someone saying they were powering 2 cubes off the same PSU, but when I noticed it only has 2 PCIE out I wasn't sure how they did it. From what I know, using other connectors (e.g., Molex) the wires will get too hot. Anyways, it looks like this might be the way to go, I'm just not certain. Interested in a second cube, but completely uninterested in buying another PSU, in fact that would be a deal-breaker. I know someone here can just glance at this and drop quick knowledge, any help would be greatly appreciated! The answer is no unfortunately. You could with the 700w version but also never with that adapter. No way you can put 300w through a single pci-e. |

Mine has been hashing all night overclocked to 200 on the stock fan with no ducting and both boards are at 48.
how do you overclock? just received mine today nevermind - figured it out. Next Q though, what's a good pool to use? I like btcguild, but not sure if the pps fee is a bit too high at 7.5% ? Use PPLNS, only 2.5% |

yea, not even a good price. why can't they just go out of business already edit: i swear they are targeting newbs and morons! those things aren't worth even $5000 delivered tomorrow The same way PC World doesn't. If your margins are 5x others, you only need to lure/scam 1/5th of the customers. |

Guys virgin media install the new hub 2, and i could see the miners on my network but not visit them via the browser.
I tried factory reset now i cant see them even on the network? Is the a way your ment to factory reset the cubes or do you just hold down the button?
Also anyone got any ideas how to get these working on the virgin media hub 2?
Check your subnet is the same as the cubes. |
