XMR BCN monero or bytecoin minig HELP :c

[Bexes]

Hello guys,

I'm new with this mining thing, and I'm interested in either mine BCN or XMR (or whatever my system can run).
The problem is that I have a nvidia card and I'm not quite sure how to use it... I know I'm supposed to use ccminer but I don't know how...

I've been using MinerGate and already withdraw a few BCN, but is quite slow, I guess my system is not good enough xD

Would you mind helping me a bit here?

GPU: GeForce 210
CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) 5350 APU with Radeon(tm) R3

(not sure if the ram is important here, but I have 8...)


I've been reading a bit but I must admit I'm completely lost, so, if you have a guide for dummys or something like that, I'll be grateful.
I'm gonna do this at the office so... free electricity and all...

I saw it before, but I'm not sure how to configure it. And I can't find a tutorial, step by step or something. (I'm really a newbie...)
I already downloaded the zip, but doesn't supposed to have a exe file or something?
Sorry, I'm kind of lost =/

I can help with CPU mining. I can help for Windows. The fact you have 8 GB ram tells that you have x64 OS, which is important to have.

Do you have a wallet installed? If not, go to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583449.0 and get a wallet.
Or you can find a pool that mines directly to exchange, but most pools don't do that afaik and it's not advised.

A pretty good miner is here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1326803.0
Download the binaries, not the source code.

Open the readme, see which miner exe is OK for your system. It may be cpuminer-btver1.exe and if it doesn't work you can try the other ones too.

Code:

start /low the_correct_exefilename.exe -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://pool.minexmr.com:4444 -u your_wallet_address -p x

You can change the pool and port too if you want.

Thank you, I'm trying to use it, but when I open it it closes immediately. Any idea why?

CD to the directory with the EXEs and type the cpuminer command manually (no start /low) to see what the error is.
If your CPU is as old as your GPU you may have to use cpuminer-core2.
