I think I may have already read somewhere that the 4000 series isn't supported by cgminer anymore, I know it has weak ass hash rate, but given that I have one in the systems I'm CPU mining in, I'd like to at least get a few MH out of it if possible. Anyone know if cgminer will work with a Radeon HD 4550? I haven't been able to get it to run. I'm running 2.5 SDK but when I run cgminer the program immediately quits and Windows 7 x64 gives me the generic windows error that the program has stopped working.
Using --verbose doesn't help it crashes before it starts logging.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

Typically cgminer dying instantly when starting up means your settings are incorrect. i would make sure i have the latest amd/catalyst drivers (with open cl) first. Feel free to post your CONF here (edit out your user/pass for the pool you're working on please). I'll help as much as i can.
the 4550 uses 80 shader stream processing units. However, i don't think it supports the new opencl (the 4450 was released with opengl, and prior to the first stable version of opencl). Could be a complete hardware incompatibility, or could just be a setting.

Okay right now I'm downloading AMD Catalyst 13.1 and I will install the AMD-APP-SDK-v2.5-Windows-641 drivers and see what happens.

Bah, I tried the latest Catalyst drivers and 2.5 sdk install and it still craps out on me immediately. Here is my cgminer.conf file. I am calling it from a command line by navigating to the directory containing cgminer and then entering cgminer -c cgminer.conf { "pools" : [ { "url" : "http://api2.bitcoin.cz:8332", "user" : "myWorker", "pass" : "123456789" } ],
"intensity" : "d,9,9,9", "gpu-engine" : "0-985,0-950,0-960,0-1000", "gpu-fan" : "0-85,0-85,0-85,0-85", "gpu-memclock" : "860,825,835,875", "gpu-powertune" : "20,20,20,20", "temp-cutoff" : "95,95,95,95", "temp-overheat" : "85,85,85,85", "temp-target" : "75,75,75,75",
"auto-fan" : true, "auto-gpu" : true, "expiry" : "120", "failover-only" : true, "gpu-threads" : "2", "log" : "5", "queue" : "1", "scan-time" : "60", "temp-hysteresis" : "3",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin" }

in your conf file, slush's pool hostname is incorrect (you have a 2 after api). im betting this is why it crashes instantly. slush's pool settings: http://api.bitcoin.cz:8332(Default URL for Stratum and Getwork miners. If you're unsure, use this URL.) or stratum+tcp://ipv6.stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 (IPv6, only for Stratum miners) or http://pool57wkuu5yuhzb.onion:8332(anonymous mining over Tor network)

Nah the pool URL didn't fix it. Must just be incompatible with CGMiner....Oh well, thanks for the efforts bud.

I assure you cgminer is compatible with slush. Do you really have 4 GPU's in your system?

I managed to mine with Phoenix 2 on this GPU. Try that.

Just try. There are various configs. Write your own and see what you'll get.
