There is my pool page. I bought some new psu's today and it is still not working. Yes the fans come on about 30 secs after I turn it on and they run wide open at 100% and are very loud. They vid's on youtube are not even half the noise level as mine.

VirosaGITS - I have no idea what you said. I do not know linux very well and didn't think I had to do all that on the S7. That's why I bought it and not other machines. I don't even see a command line to do all that.

The network is working because I can log into the machine and I have pinged a few sights inside of the S7 software.

Btw it is a batch 8.

The controller boot from an .img, if the .img is corrupted somehow it could fuck over CGMiner. And no you should not have to do this. If its a B8 then its probably still on warranty, if you received it like that, you should contact Bitmain and ask wtf if you have not already.

Maybe, just maybe Bitmain put the wrong firmware on it, i honestly don't know.

All i or anyone can do is probably have you check some things to figure out what is wrong. Bitmain may very well blame the PSU's. But assuming they are in working condition, you should of still been able to run the S7 at lower freq or with just one blade for example.

A good thing to do would be to try with a proper PSU in the meantime.

I have 4 proper psu's and have tried all of them. I have underclocked to 400M and still nothing. I have tried one blade at a time and still nothing.

I didn't buy it from bitman, would they still honor a warranty?

Thanks for everyone's help so far. I am leaning toward the controller board because not even the fans rpm are showing up in the miner status tab. That would have nothing to do with hashing or enough power because the fans are running at a 100%. How do you know they are running at 100% you ask, because of the noise. Wow, they do put out some air, but the noise.

The fan RPM will not show unless the miner is mining, because it all goes through CGMiner. Either you would see everything and see dead boards, or you will see nothing. You can't have half.

You will have to contact whoever sold it, since they're the ones that sold you a bad unit. Who did you buy it from?

[Zerberfert]

CryptoCrane, when I bought it they said I had 3 days. Today is day 3.

Do you know how I can try to get CGMiner started?

[Zerberfert]

Thanks everyone for your help. I contacted the seller and he is going to take it back.

Thanks again,

I am very to happy to hear that you are going to replace it.I have got a suggestion just power 1 board and control board.If it is an issue related to PSU you can define the problem by that way.I believe it is a PSU related problem.If it does not start to work the problem is probably the BB.
