I have read all the beginner threads and tried to troubleshoot how to get the RPC Miner (CPU) to work for hours, but I still don't understand where I change my parameters.  I've ordered a GPU, but wanted to CPU mine until it arrives.

The message I keep getting is the following:

Could not retrieve work from RPC server.
CURL return value = 7


I don't see where I change the parameters to join my mining pool. Had no trouble getting miners to work on my Mac, but I'm a bit rusty when it comes to a PC. Can anyone please help?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

The error doesn't lie, it had a problem connecting to the remote host.

See if you typed the pool address correctly. There are different syntaxes for different gpu miners.

I haven't entered the address in anywhere... where do I do that? My problem is simply that I don't know where to input my miner's information.  I thought it would give me a chance once I opened the miner.
