Same question because community wont able to help out if information is lacking.Agree that those cards are still capable on mining altcoins but expect it would really have a very low hash due to those outdated cards.

One thing I do like to know is the set-up and the miner program being used.It wont really be operational if you haven't supplied those things.

While those cards may still be useable for mining, it doesn't mean they are still profitable for mining. You could be using more electricity to mine something worth less than electricity cost.

Are you trying to mine Ethereum? One possible reason for why you can't mine ethereum is because it requires GPU memory to be at least 3GB (google mining DAG size requirement). With those cards you mentioned i don't believe they have anything more than 2GB.

Well said, mining needs lots more to be into consideration. As mentioned electricity is one of the biggest concern that need to be considered before getting into mining. After investing into GPU mining my rig is still haven't started mining because of the increased electricity consumption charges which I never thought of before investing.

These cards only support (CUDA)Compute 1.1. Ive tried everything to mine on my GTS 250 but the only algorithms that work are all on ASIC's now (X11, Scrypt)

Well, mate I'm afraid it is useless now. this time with current difficulties and coin's prices you want be able to earn anything. but if it was last year, then yes.. back at that times it was possible to earn something... now.. now you are too late, sorry
