EDIT - Solved.

Removed WinUSB, installed the default serial drivers and used BFGMiner.

Thanks to all that tried to help!



G'day All,

I'm having a bit of a technical issue, and I'd appreciate your thoughts!

I've recently rediscovered an old pooled mining account, and acquired a usb bitfountain block erupter. I'm mining just for fun, and appreciate that returns will be negligible.

I'm trying to use CGMiner v3.9.0 with Slush's pool on a Windows 7 64bit machine. Everything seems fine on the hardware side of things - I can start CGMiner in benchmark mode and see the device hashing away happily.

This is the string I'm using to try and connect:

cgminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u [username].[workername] -p [workerpassword]

When I try to run cgminer and connect to the pool, I get an error as follows (debug output trimmed - let me know if the untrimmed output would assist):

As a matter of interest I've also tried connecting to BitMinter with the same result, and I'm not running a firewall.

I'm going quietly nuts trying to get this thing to work, and any assistance at all would be much appreciated!
