Hello.
I read a lot of tutorials about the bitminter client.
I made an account there and also an account for payout (wallet).
The client begins to work, my laptop becomes a heather ^^
(at this time the preformance doesnt matter)
the client shows a lot of information:

the hashrate is 10 points.
but i dont know:
is my client really connected to bitminter and collect coins?
Why do i need the com ports?
in youtube videos it looks very simple.
sometimes they talk about com virtualisation software.
i tried but without change in the bitminter software
i need a really good tutorial before thinking about preformance (antminter hardware etc....)
