Hello
I bought my first miner an ASIC Block Erupter 333mh/s. So I watched a lot of videos to get it working. I have done every step like in the videos but the miner doesn´t show up in my pool account. I am using bfgminer 5.4.2 64 bit on Windows 10. I already installed the driver from Silcon Labs and the device is working fine and gets quite hot while bfgminer is running. Bfgminer only says Pool 0 is alive, Pool 0 is hiding content from us, Dfficulty has changed and New Block detected( The last one repeats itself but nothing else happens). There no message of accepted or refused jobs. I think the problem is in my configuration but i don´t have an idea.Maybe I forgot an aspect.

Here is my Start.bat
bfgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://eu.stratum.slushpool.com:3333  -u lokosj.worker1 -p test -S erupter:\\.\COM4
Thanks in advance

First post in the BFG miner support thread for help with BFG Miner.
Second post in the slush pool thread for help with slush's pool.
Third at 333Mhs it will take a long time to submit a share.  So if the thing is getting hot and the mining software is showing you a hash rate then it is working.  Some pools will block low hash rate devices thinking they are CPU's or GPU's, I don't know if slush does that or not.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

Serious question, but why even bother? With 333Mhs you're unlikely to even reach the payout threshold nowadays.
