Looks like the same error that's making mine crap out, too. 

Yeah, same as me I added the-T to see what was going on and it had an unexpected side effect I got my 2 boards working just about but it won`t work without the -T instruction.  with it, everything hashes away real nice.

Luke, any idea why this might happen?

Ta.

[vulgartrendkill]

just to add, thanks for everyones help on here and the blade setup thread.  Really helped out!

Will look into it later... buried deep in bitfury code atm

Enjoy that mate   Cannot waitt to get my bitfury gear hashing using bfg (when my cards arrive that it)

Ooh Bitfury code? Will that mean the Bitfury based Drillbit boards will be supported on BFGminer?

[Luke-Jr]

Ooh Bitfury code? Will that mean the Bitfury based Drillbit boards will be supported on BFGminer?

As of right now, I can confirm with testing that BFGMiner's dev branches support Littlefury and Metabank miners.

The following Bitfury manufs have confirmed they will be providing a dev unit (my apologies if I missed anyone - PM me and I'll fix):

• BigPictureMining (RedFury, BF1, and some other brands)
• BitCentury (Littlefury)
• Metabank
• MegaBigPower

Additionally, someone with a BFSB unit (not sure if official or a user) is providing patches to port to their boards.

I've never heard of Drillbit before. If they send me a sample board, I'd be glad to ensure BFGMiner has full support for it.

Very promising for the price and it seems quite a few people vouching for them... but I was hoping to get my order of boards from them running on BFGMiner instead of CGMiner when they arrive later in Oct/Nov.

I'll point them to your post with the list of BitFury Manufacturers and maybe we can "cross the streams".

We've done nothing of the sort.

Oh sorry, thought you guys did.  Could have sworn Kano said he knew where Barntech lives.  I'll edit the post.

My apologies.

Aren't you guys working with them on getting CGMiner working with their Bitfury boards?

Coding yes. Vouching, no. It's just a semantic difference, but in this world it matters

Agreed, apologies again.  

Just hope these guys are going to deliver better/faster than the BFLs of the world. So far my Magic 8 Ball says, "Signs point to yes"

This doesn't make any sense, so I presume the stack must be corrupt somehow :/
Can you guys try out this special recompiled EXE?
It has some stack protector stuff added, so hopefully will crash with more useful info...
You might also need libssp-0.dll

[JBT]

with bfg 321 do you still need to have that other sila driver loaded? or is winUSB a better route?

You can install WinUSB if you want, but it'll break USB support for BFG.

k was just wondering, left the sila drivers for now. all seems well got 1.7 and 4.8% on two devices running at 10.9A

try the same thing with bfg 314 also getting funny errors with 321 ( too many parameters have passed...)

i keep getting HW errors 100% on some of the usb erruptors. when i test them on another pc they test fine. i tried uninstalling(delete driver) a reinstalling(reinstall driver)
