I wouldn't call it a non-relevant thread.  I think providing the 1 key data point I surmised from reading the thread is relevant to this active thread.  If you don't want to read Newbie comments, feel free to skip this thread 

Oh .. and +1 

Peace and love

Great pool, I had fun jumping through the history of this thread.  Should have read it before I bought a used Jalapeno, I would have seen the posts back in May 2013 explaining how with the difficulty increases and increases in overall hashing, 5GH would only earn good BTC rates for a while.  Oh well, at least my miner contributes to the Bitcoin network in general

Did you seriously just make a non relevant comment to a non relevant 3 year old thread? You're a newbie, I get it, you want to get your activity up. But at least post your useless comments on active threads, if you're gonna spam at all.

I'm confused, I didn't understand anything you typed. It might be too late for forum reading.
Oh well, whatever.

Peace.

It means don't come in the thread and leave abusive comments. Bitminter is noob friendly.

Any recommendations for a good powered USB 2.0 hub? I'm using an Etekcity 10 port right now but not too happy with it.

It's plugged into a Raspberry Pi so I need 2.0

[Flashman]

The Pi is picky with hubs, see this list...

This one has worked great for me for a while

7 ports and 4A of power, plenty of power for 8 units, you can only fit one U2 and 6 U1's on there though. That's my setup and they all run 2.0GH/s

I'm running a RPi too and using this hub.  http://www.ebay.com/itm/161225117669?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

It has the most ports that I could find for a hub that plays well with the Rasberry Pi.  Unfortunately, I had to get it from Australia (I live in the US) so it needs a converter (no worries, they are really cheap) and it pretty junky.  Its made of weak plastic and the power cord is really touchy so if you hit it or jostle the cord the power cuts in and out.  It brings back memories of my once beloved Sega Game Gear if any of you are old enough to:  A- Remember Sega Game Gear and B- Remember how temperamental the power cords were. 

Other than the above mentioned, it seems to function quite well.  I'm currently running 4 BFL 30 GH/s units and 1 60 GH/s (though it only runs around 55 gh/ s) and a few USB miners (1 antminter u1 and 3 Block eruptors)

Hey guys I got a quick question, how do you reset the COM numbers?

I couldn't figure all that out, but it did help me figure out a way to do it. I went to my devices and printers section then I went to the properties of the miners hardware(individually...yes I know very tedious) and in the advanced settings for the port seetings I just changed the COM number. Thanks for the help

Did my comment come across as abusive? Of course it's noob friendly, as the title of the thread states. But you can still keep your posts relevant to the thread, otherwise they're considered 100% pure spam, which is not allowed - newbie or not.

How much would you guys pay for a MSI AMD Radeon HD 7990 6144MB GDDR5 Dual-Link DVI-I GPU Video Card R7990-6GD5

[Flashman]

Based on hugely optimistic 6 month mining return on bitcoin.... $30

Can someone please give me a link or point me in the right direction to a safe GUIMiner-SCRIPT or CGMiner download? I have looked everywhere but can't find one . I would prefer GUIMiner-SCRIPT, but the download from tacotime has waaaay too many red flags when scanned by my antivirus and virustotal.   

[Flashman]

Bitminter is a bitcoin pool, we do not use scrypt and I would be highly surprised if anyone was running any GPUs on here any more.

However, your problem finding a "clean" download may be that your virus program is detecting all of the mining core programs such as cgminer, bfgminer, reaper etc contained in guiminer package as "mining trojans" due to the fact that some assclowns distributed them as trojans to steal CPU power in the past.

I know this is a Bitcoin pool but I want to give Litecoin a try, and you're right about the GPU thing. I understand that there may be false positives, but there were a lot of red flags with the official GUIMiner-script download.

hi i am new to bitminter, so far i have been hashing for 6 hours at 1 th/s 1000gh and  i have no btc is that normal

[Flashman]

Bitminter pays out when they find a block, I think you might have been between blocks, if you look on the stats dashboard page you'll see one in red at 76% CDF that took 16 hours.

[stoody]

hi all i just moved over from eclips mining pool i have 14Gh/s mining riggs do u think i will make more bitcoin from bitminter. cos i was gettin about 0.00081871 BTC in about 15 to 20 hours was hopeing to make a bit more then that
