Anyone know a mining software compatible to Windows Xp? Or anyone here who knows how to mine with Windows Xp? I can't seem to run MinerGate or NiceHash

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Update your pc to win 7. I think you probably could, anything with pentium 4 and up can go to win 7. Then get minergate.

CGMIner works with WinXP.  But XP has a limit to 12 or 13 USB ASIC mining devices.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

It's about running a 64 bit OS in many cases - Ethereum in particular REQUIRES a 64 bit OS to mine on.

 XP works for ASIC USB-based miners, but those aren't very efficient and the miner software tends to crash out a lot, IME.

 You CAN "mine" FoldCoin with XP - via running FAH.

I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!
