.98 firmware helped! hashing at 144 ghs on my mercury. low hardware errors!
Congrats ASIC-K!! I have been hesitant to play with my firmware at all, as my miner arrived with .95 and was hashing 540gh/s in cgminer right off the bat.
Of course now I want to apply .98 but I am out of town for work (Windsor) and do not want to attempt a remote fw upgrade:(
Have to wait till the weekend... Cheers!
