It is the jalepeno that is connected to USB (COM16). Changing the USB plugin that the jalepeno is plugged into causes the new COM port to be in use as well and Bitminter is unable to detect the device there either. Yet under my Devices and Printers Windows page the jalepeno shows up as BitFORCE SHA256 SC.

The COM port is always in use? Did you try a reboot?

Changing the USB plugin that the jalepeno is plugged into causes the new COM port to be in use as well and Bitminter is unable to detect the device there either. Yet under my Devices and Printers Windows page the jalepeno shows up as BitFORCE SHA256 SC.
I also posted this:
I flashed on of my jalepeno's this morning with BitForce_SC-1.2.5. Everything seemed to go fine. However now Bitminter cannot connect to it. Under Control Panel>Hardware and Sound>Devices and Printers BitFORCE SHA256 SC shows up. And it is on USB Serial Post(COM16). Bitminter says it cannot probe COM16: port in use. Can anyone give an idea of what I can do to fix this? Or did I break it?
The COM port is always in use? Did you try a reboot? Since I flashed the jalepeno, yes. The jale is plugged in and windows sees it as a miner but now the bitminter program does not see it and says that it "cannot probe COM16: port in use" . The port is in use because the jale is plugged into it. Checking device properties the jale shows up on the com port that bitminter says it cannot scan or something. I have rebooted several times. I also tried plugging the jale into another usb plug. The com port changed and the same message was given by Bitminter, "cannot probe COMxx: port in use".

Hi Dr. I am having difficulties connecting my 2 KnC miners to your pool. I am getting the "Connect to CGMiner API failed." It only started yesterday after a reboot. I was mining fine for a month before. What is going on? Thanks for your help. I have been using the same setting and it worked before. they are as follows
mint.bitminter.com:3333 MyUserId.workerName
NVM, solved the problem.

I am running three workers as follows on BitMinter Client v1.4.3
Mac OSX Snow Leopard w/3 ASIC Block Erupter USB Miners Windows 7 Enterprise -32 bit w/2 ASIC Block Erupter USB Miners on an HP Z200 Workstation Windows 7 Professional -64 bit w/7 ASIC Block Erupter USB Miners and 2 x GeForce 9800GT graphics cards on GeForce R331.93 on an AlienWare Area 51 mini tower
While there do not appear to be any configurable items on the Mac, the GeForce 9800GT will allow me to modify these entries:
Work group size Work intervals
and enable/disable Manual vectors
The information icon gives minimal descriptions and I'm wondering if others have tweaked these settings for a performance gain. I just increased the Work group size of each GeForce to 256 and am watching its performance.
Regarding my Windows 7 boxes, I'm wondering if anyone has had success playing around with the comm port settings by increasing from the default speed of 9600. My hash rates seem to be fairly consistent, but if possible, I wish to reduce the Proofs of work rejected by the server. Or is that totally beyond my control?
All feedback is welcomed!
I reckon you'd be better off financially using your gpus to mine scrypt coins and convert to btc at hashco.ws see my sig. look at https://litecointalk.org/index.php/topic,7722.0.html, but set them up for hascows. now i think about it you'll need to run cudaminer for your nvidia cards. research round that litecoin setup would show you some ideas for intervals and vectors if you want to stay loyal to DrH. with your asics, there are threads on here somewhere about overclocking and com settings. you might need a fan

I have a question regarding Bitminter Client. I am currently mining with 2 Block Erupters having a total of about 660 MH/s. My Client has been running for 5 days now shoing up I've earned 00058592 BTC Coins (or are this blocks?!) In Bitminter login it is showing up that my total earnings are like this: Personal Assets Balance Unconfirmed Future Expected per block Bitcoins 0.00227229 - 0.00227229 0.00003750 Namecoins 0.00717448 - 0.00717448 0.00007501
I feel like there's some difference between my client earnings and those showing up here? Or is it because I missunderstand something between the two statistical numbers in client and my bitminter login? I also would be glad to know what exactly the shift feature ( https://bitminter.com/shifts) is meaning to me and my earnings. Do I have to share my earnings because I am earning "less" compared to other miners with better hardware?
By side... currently Bitminter is mining BTC and NMC which are both Sha256 based currencies. Wouldn't it make sense to cross-mine other Sha256 currencies as well even if they are not as successful as BTC/NMC yet? As far as I know BTC/NMC Mining works somehow without much more extra calculation efford... I had a look to this list showing up other SHA256 Crypto-Currencies... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cryptocurrencies

Can you also tell me how the "shift" influences my personal earnings? Will I loose some of my personal minings having less efficient hardware vs. users having more expensive hardware?

The data center where our mining server is hosted appears to be completely down. It's being worked on. Updates will follow on twitter, facebook, google+ and bitcointalk. Apologies for the downtime.

Hey guys ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ive a question - when will the Bitminter Client official support Antminer u1? I can use him, but with a short delay because of selftest error ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fpuu.sh%2F6cMVa.png&t=665&c=BL4QjtK1pM729A) Thanks for answer ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I can use him, but with a short delay because of selftest error No, sorry, no Antminer support yet. Hope to add it for a later version though. I have the Antminer U1 running fine on my Macbook PRO as soon as I download the driver for it. :O Been running for 24 hours now. Quite successfully. 1.6 GH/s is what its supposed to be. I have it running around 1557 MH/s all day with the BitMinter Java client (OS X 10.9.1 on the MacBook PRO). Same Antminer only worked at 300 MH/s in the Asteroid client for Mac. BitMinter Java client was the first one that rocked at full speed once I had the driver installed. I did see a lot of similar errors in the log as to what DarkHunter04 reported. Turned off viewing the log and just continued mining. Ignorance is bliss? http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx

I was thinking about antminer but wanted to make sure they work with bitminter first .
Did you just download that driver and plug it in and it got detected ?

My guess would be that about 33% of the shares are errors. The AntMiner U1 is recognized as a Block Erupter (Icarus device) but has small but important differences that must be taken into account to avoid errors.
