Ah yes, onto that now. Exactly how many bitcoins should I be expecting?
Zero
Even with a pool? Not even a satoshi?

Hello,

Whenever I try to mine on Eligius or solo using GUIMiner, I get these errors:

[Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
IO errors - 2, tolerance 2
[Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
IO errors - 3, tolerance 2
No more backup servers left. Using primary and starting over.

These all repeat constantly. I read somewhere that you have to press the "Launch Bitcoin client as server" setting, however this does not work as I do not use the core Bitcoin client. I use MultiBit HD. Am I missing something? Must I use the core client to mine?

Thanks.

You do not need the core client to pool mine but, yes, to solo mine you must have the core wallet on you computer or network.
What about mining using Eligius?

Are you trying to mine bitcoin? With a GPU? While yes you can technically do so but, you will spend more in electricity then BTC you earn. You will never solo mine a bitcoin block with a GPU. The difficulty is far, far to high.
Yes, I understand that, but can you just answer my question please? Can I mine on Eligius using MultiBit, or must I use the core client? Maybe you don't understand what Eligius is. It's a mining pool. Sorry if I'm being rude.

Dont worry, it sounds like you may be getting frustrated. Confusion does that, I understand. Wink

Sorry I dident answer. Please allow me to try. Eligius is a mining pool. You do not need any wallet installed to pool mine. Only mining software like guiminer.

From the error, it seems it cannot connect to Eligius. Can you post what settings you have? ( host/server, port ) and we will go from there.
Erm, I'm not sure. GUIMiner isn't telling me as it has set it all up automatically. Gimme a sec and I'll figure it out.
Er, now I have the settings, but as I set it up myself I now have different errors too.

Oh I think I see the problem. You have an Nvidia GPU. You need to use cudaminer. I am not sure if guiminer supports cudaminer. If my memory serves, you might see it under the New Miner menu. If you do, create a new miner using cudaminer.

I'm guessing OP will need ccminer, but i don't really think there is any point mining Bitcoin with a GPU.
