guiminer just will not connect ?

[dragclevis]

i've been trying to get mining now for the last few days but every time i click start on guiminer it either stays at connecting or it says connection failure. i've tried reinstalling it, went over all the details numerous times and still nothing
here is the console

2013-02-06 18:11:48: Listener for "Default": Nothing to mine on, exiting
 the *'s are the password

any help would be appreciated
thanks

You will get closer to less than 0 with CPU.

It doesn't mine because it doesn't see any opencl hardware, of course. This means that you have to install the drivers or choose another miner. Open guiminer, clic file->new miner->ufasoft CPU miner and then set it. It should work. Note that cpu mining is totally useless. GPU mining is no more profitable now too, due to ASIC.
