The cgminer thread is 685 pages long. While I tried to search through it, the search feature limitations and the sheer size of the thread made it impossible.
I have a 10 port Rosewill USB hub and 7 block eruptors in it. I successfully changed the driver to WinUSB drivers using zadig and I was also able to start cgminer. I created a .bat file, which did not ( and still does not) work. It just opens up quick, and closes, almost imperceptibly. I must have the command line wrong, but I was pretty sure I had it right. If I open up cgminer.exe, I can manually enter the pool and user information, and the miner starts running.
Looking at cgminer, I noticed I was running close to 333 MHS, which is what I would expect from 1 block eruptor, not 7. Pool also confirmed 333mhs. I also noticed that when work is accepted, it is always from AMU 0. Is that the ID of the hub or am I missing 6 eruptors? I hot swapped one block eruptor to an open port on the hub, and after a few error messages, the AMU changed to AMU 1.
Then I started trying different ports, and well, just messed it all up.
Now I get:
"USB init, open device failed, err -12, you need to install a win USB driver for AMU device 5:5" "icarus detect <5:5> failed to initialise <incorrect device?>" "No devices detected"
I keep reading the README.txt, but it's just not sinking in. The silabs driver kept reinstalling itself upon reboot. And I kept changing it to WINUSB, but it's winning the battle. I think I got rid of the bad driver, but what now?
My question is, how do I get all 7 to work? I'm sure there's a thread devoted to this already, just need to be pointed in the right direction. (Also, my device manager is only "seeing" 6 devices. They all have lights lit on them, not sure what's going on there either.)
I can probably get the one to work again but what's the point of that.
Thanks

I'm using version 3.8.3 cgminer, let me know if you need more specs.
