1  Bitcoin / Mining support / bfgMiner Issues with 60ghz butterfly lab unit total noob confused on: November 04, 2016, 01:02:41 AM
Hello, as stated I am using a 60Ghz/s unit from butterfly labs. I am a complete noob and very confused.

I need to mine through NiceHash. I connect to them through bfgMiner. I make a .conf file as instructed and it saves. But I can never, ever get bfgMiner to load the config file.  Huh

So I type in the following manually after lauching bfgMiner:

URL: scrypt.usa.nicehash.com:3333
USERNAME: 1MWQTEA7wSd9YEwRLERq78JtSitndoiNYs
PASSWORD: X

My machine is not performing well. I am estimated to make $.29 an hour running the 60Ghz machine. However when I run my Alienware Area 51 directly through the NiceHash miner which has very little Mhs I make over $3 an hour.

I purchased this Butterfly Labs unit to perform better on NiceHash.

I am so confused. Ive read everything I possibly can on the interenet.  Cry

This is where I am getting most of my setup info: https://www.nicehash.com/?p=asic

Here is a screenshot of my failing for hours and burning a ton of electricity:


I've searched the web over and I keep coming back to this site to articles that almost solve my problem. I got it to run a couple accepted blocks once for five minutes.

Please help,
truly yours Hopeless Noob 2017
