This kind of thing typically happens because the block erupters don't get enough power. But I guess this is a powered USB hub, so I don't see why it should fail when using it with the laptop. You could try reinstalling the drivers. I have heard of at least one instance where that fixed it.

Thanks for the idea but unfortunately it didn't helped. I even tried with WinUSB driver (zadig) but nothing changed.
The laptop is on a docking station but with it or without it I got the same error message. Sad

Hi!

I'm new here and have problems with bitminter client.
I've 2 USB erupter connected to an Anker USB hub.
On one hand if I connect the hub to my desktop PC, everything is working fine.
On the other hand if I try to use the hub (with the two erupter) with my laptop for this kind of work, then I receive the following error message:

Code:

On the laptop is nothing special, freshly installed Win7, new java and that's it.
Does anyone have some idea what could be wrong?

Thanks in advance.
