Is it supposed to be FTDI manufacturer?
No, its supposed to be WinUSB. Is CGMiner giving you an error message? If so why no post the text so we know what it is? |
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

No, its supposed to be WinUSB. Is CGMiner giving you an error message? If so why no post the text so we know what it is? sorry had it as a link earlier in thread. Try this. I've had similar issues. In device manager un-install the USB devices, check the box delete the driver software for this device. Un-install all monarchs (if more than one you'll see). Then refresh your device manager and you will see the ftdi drivers come back. Now install WinUSB with zdiag. Try that. |

Are you plugging this directly into your PC's USB port? If so USB 1.1, 2.0 or 3.0? Or are you going through a Hub? It seems like a hardware issue like Kano said. Especially since it happens immediately. Oh, as for links I don't click on them. You can also copy and paste the text too. |

I'm plugging into the back of my tower, so directly, should be USB 2.0, it's not blue so pretty sure not 3.0. |

Well, yeah, FTDI is the USB hardware manufacture. But does Zadig show it using the WinUSB driver as your previous screen shot showed? |

Ok, as a last straw you can try going through a USB 2.0 hub anyway and see what happens. What power supply are you using to power the miner? Are all the fans spinning up? |

No, it spews errors when I run bfgminer, that's why I'm trying cgminer, comes up as BFL 0. I'll try running in a bit with FTDI driver in bfgminer custom and show a screen. |

Oh OK I was using cgminer from a working in bfgminer. If you're using the custom version of bfgminer supplied by bfl and you have enough power. I'm using 1600w power supplies with enough amps. Then I don't know what else I can help you with |

Edit: So do think this is a fix or a preliminary test? Also what is the driver instance name for the --usb options?
Thanks a bunch, again.
This code should just become part of the next release. It's still all under the same device name for all bflsc driver devices so BAS. The code was never rewritten to account for variants detected after the fact and black/whitelist them (it would be a massive rewrite and manufacturers have all but made this venture worthless). -ck, Did this fix for the Monarch's make into the git tree yet? Thanks, Sam |
