CGMiner Only Recognises 1 ASICminer block erupter

[valona74]

Newbie question, have been mining no problem on bitminter using their software with 3 Asicminer usb block erupters, have been trying to get CGminer 3.1.1 to work on another pool instead but it software only recognises one of the USBs, any one have any suggestions how to get all three recognised, have run WINusb driver.

cgminer -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333 -u valona74.bitcoin -p valona00

try this few suggestions.

1. Can you see all of your Asicminer usb block erupters on Windows PC device manager?
2. Try moving your Asicminer usb block erupters to different USB ports on your Windows PC.

Hi valona74, is it worth the cost to mine with asicminer usb block erupter?

[valona74]

Problem solved, hooked all asicminer usb's into one usb hub & worked perfectly.  Did not work properly when they were all in separate usb drives on the pc though.

Ryen123, time will tell whether they even cover their cost, for me its more about a bit of fun. If I were buying them again, i'd join a bulk buying group to get them cheaper,  this may make them profitable.

Agreed buying more is the way to go, get's cheaper!
