1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Original Helium Miner Help on: July 29, 2023, 01:46:29 PM
I have an Original Helium miner that I purchased that absolutely killed it at one point.

The firmware SD card has since become corrupted and failed. Does anyone know if:

1. The original Helium Miner equipment is still viable for mining on the network?

2. Where to get firmware file for the miner so I can replace the SD card?

Helium support isn't emailing me back.

Thanks.
2  Bitcoin / Hardware / Antminer S19 Troubleshooting on: May 30, 2023, 11:44:09 PM
I have an S19 that ran like a champ for about 3 months and then one day would fire up, mine for a few minutes and then stop. I updated the firmware and that fixed the problem temporarily, but it is back. Seems to have one fan that is running 4+ times as fast as the others.

Any suggestions?

(I've done lots of work on S9's but not on the S19)
3  Bitcoin / Hardware / Help Making S19 Quieter on: September 06, 2021, 03:35:57 PM
I bought a cooler to do the enclosure trick I used to do with my S9. When I close it, the S19 promptly overheats.

I have shrouds to connect the fans to the ducting but I wanted to keep air going to the power supply.

Any suggestions?

4  Bitcoin / Mining support / Solo Mining Setup with S19 on: August 08, 2021, 07:56:05 PM
I have an Antminer S19 and want to Solo mine 1 day a week just for fun. I downloaded and synced the bitcoin core on my laptop but how do I solo mine with my S19? I cannot seem to find a good step-by-step guide.
5  Bitcoin / Hardware / Powering an S19 in the USA on: July 16, 2021, 01:37:08 AM
I just pulled the trigger on an S19. I was planning to plug it in instead of my dryer on the 220 outlet. I notice it has two power inputs. How are people powering these in the US?
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Flashed GPU Bios, Computer Won't Post on: April 05, 2020, 04:39:52 PM
I flashed an RX580 with a new bios and now my system won't post with that GPU plugged in. Unplugged, works great.

I can't flash it back to stock without booting first. Is it worth trying to hot-swap it in once the computer boots without it plugged in?

I have an ASUS b250 mining expert.
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / What to do with old Antminer S9 on: February 27, 2020, 02:03:01 PM
I've got two 13.5th S9's. I'm giving up on bitcoin mining, it's been 3 months since I cracked anything. Any advice what to mine with them? Any Altcoins worth the squeeze? Noob to non-btc asics. Appreciate the advice.
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Clever Ideas how to mount P106s? on: February 25, 2020, 03:27:48 AM
I have a standard open miner case. I just acquired a bunch of P106s dirt cheap. Was going to add them to my otherwise all AMD rig. They have no brackets or fans. Any clever ideas how to mount them?
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Surprisingly high Hashrate with R9 380s on: February 23, 2020, 08:44:08 PM
My ethereum GPU miner had been down for 6 months after accidentally bricking an AsRock board while trying to update a bios. I've since purchased a used ASUS b250 mining expert. I spent last weekend installing my old R9 380 cards (because I had them) and fired the thing up to find that I'm getting >49mh/s per card with stock settings. Overclocking today, I'm getting >53mh/s per card.

I figured these would be worthless, but I'm pleasantly surprised. Can anyone explain why card that seem to be reported as getting mh's in the 19 range are getting 50+?
