I have no idea what the hell is going on

I got this one too, had to go back down to .94 to get it working again. .95 worked as well but crashed after about 30 minutes.

I've gone back to fw 0.95. It seems to be connecting to BTCGuild again and it's now averaging about 187gh/s, but I'm getting a lot of disabled cores.

Its so weird that I can't update my firmware, otherwise it doesn't work. WTF?




EDIT: I seem to be having the same issue. It restarts after awhile. Did you ever get to fix it? Or are you just stuck on 0.94?

I am stuck at .94 for that ASIC.  I am going to send it back.  I have an RMA for it already.  I am running it like this over the weekend and will send it back on Monday.  You should be getting over 250GH/s on a Saturn so both of your boards may be slow.  I would check each one individually and see what hash rate you are getting on each.  With any luck you will get 140 GH/s on one of them and can send the other one back.

Check your Miner Status screen (Via Browser) See if the STATUS screen reports more than one PID.

If so do the RESTART on the security screen -- have patience for the restart... go for a quick coffee while it restarts.

There's only one PID running. I've tried 0.9.6, 0.9.6.1 and 0.9.7. None of them work. Going to 0.9.4 now and see if that works.
I can't believe they just send out things without even testing them. I didn't see any activity on the BTCGuild pool, so I know they didn't check anything. This sucks. Too many people have had problems. Don't know why I even bothered hoping mine would "just work" out of the box.

I'm going to separate the boards tomorrow or later tonight to test them individually. Right now I'm gonna go buy 2 120mm fans to use as an exhaust. I don't know why the hell they set up the two boards in the back. They would have had a much better air flow being right behind to the inlet fans. Also of note, my box cover didn't come with that air splitter they had mentioned.

I've checked all the VRMs by pushing down, none of them made any clicking sounds, so I think they should be ok, but both the temps are at 55c right now, and I'm still getting a lot of cores shutting down.

My Saturn came with .95 installed -- it seems to be working fine with Bitminter.

FWIW

Received another miner today, updated to 0.97 and crashed pretty much straight away (constant red light). Decided to take ASIC modules out and place in Mercury box (very tricky since cables are short etc. Turns out that plug and play with modules does not work, at least for me.

[timmmers]

Whatever happened at Slush today, my daily reward rose. Odd since I seem to have lost a couple GHash somewhere.

[Phoenix1969]

I just let the slow sat run for a couple hours.. on normal 0.97
and it woke up the vrm eventually, WU's are climbing, and it's screamin' again...Thank god for small miracles, I thought that vrm was dead!

[demonmaestro]

This is some BULLSHIT. They got till the 31 to have my miner at my damn DOOR. They have burned my bridge.  

Hell betime i get it i will only be making BTC0.001 a day off of it. Gone through 2 Difficulty changes ALREADY!.

did you get your refund?

[WastedLTC]

oh this difficulty level is going to be fun....    good luck everyone!

[Sitarow]

oh this difficulty level is going to be fun....    good luck everyone!

30% or 40% next round?

[WastedLTC]

It just went up 45% less than an hour ago....  Weeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

[edgar]

i removed an external room fan and raised GH/s by 0.8.

still running 0.96.1 without bertmod, been earning 0.9 per day but new diff rise just ended that...

its hashing around 500-560 on BCTG @ 99.75% Accepted shares,

Stable 538.8 on puTTY - WU 7754 (was >8000 on 0.97 but slightly lowered GH/s & BTC per day!)


Im scurrrred to touch it anymore, every reflash takes too long to stabilise and it usually requires one or more reboots as well..

roll on 0.98 or better!!

[Sitarow]

Yes that we know

However will it be less next round? Or will Bitfury, Avalon, BFL, KnC and Other Bitfury/BFL/Avalon/KnC Asic Clones keep the network increase growing at 40% and above.

Until KNC has said they have completely finished shipping, I bet we will continue to see above 30%.   Hashfast has been delayed so that won't change in the next 10 days... 

[DimensionsOfHell]

This freaking thing is so frustrating! I have a lot of disabled cores and only getting about 150GH/s out of a Saturn! Also, one of my VRMs aren't even working! What the hell KnC? No freaking testing at all!?

This totally sucks! And their customer service dept. doesn't even work weekends, so who knows when I'll be hearing back from them?

In hindsight, I should've just asked for a refund; I guess that's what I get for believing in these guys; disappointment.

[frankenmint]

have you tried the press in firmly with a click trick that phoenix mentioned earlier?
