Help with asicminer usb setup

[jedimstr]

If you're trying with the latest BFGMiner 3.2.0, then try using -S erupter:all.

Also the permissions issues you're having occur often if you're trying to run BFGMiner directly from a folder under the desktop or the desktop itself.  If that's the case, try putting it in a folder directly on C:\ instead like C:\Mining\bfgminer.exe

Also, if you want to try CGMiner again, try uninstalling the serial drivers first (the ones that identify the erupter as a COM port) from SI labs before you reinstall Zadig drivers.  You shouldn't see CP210x bridge anymore.

For CGMiner, I tried uninstalling the SI labs drivers, reinstalling the zadig drivers, and then reinstalling the SI labs drivers, but I still get the same errors.

Do you have another PC or laptop you can try?  I was unable to run my erupters on my windows7 64bit desktop but had no problem with my windows 7 netbook.

[jason60069]

Yes, I'll try it on another computer once I get home.

You shouldn't have both zadig and the other drivers installed.  Just use the zadig.  Are the devices showing up properly there?

[jason60069]

When I have only the zadig WinUSB drivers installed, the miner isn't assigned a COM port.

have you tried Bitminter? I had some problems, but with Bitminter I've seen all my 10 block erupters and now I'm mining from several days!

When I have only the zadig WinUSB drivers installed, the miner isn't assigned a COM port.

That's right, that's why you don't use the -S option.

You can download the Eobot software, it automatically will work with an unlimited number of the Asicminer USB...you can choose BTC/LTC, and it will mine either one for you using the USB.  Here's the link:

I tried bitminter, but I got a timeout error when trying to probe the port, and I do have the silabs drivers installed.

[jason60069]

Without the silabs drivers, I still get the same "no devices detected" error in cgminer.

Did you try a different computer? Where are you located? Maybe someone could make a house call or do a remote link...
