I've looked around and tried to find out how I can get this to work but I cant seem to find any way, if someone could help me out here I'd appreciate it

I downloaded cgminer 3.8.4 latest version, then looked on youtube tutorials etc, so I joined a mining pool, setup my worker got the mining pool adress

made a bat file inside my cgminer directory with the following line

cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://au1.miningpool.co:9203 -u username -p password -I 8

I filled out my username and password in that line, but when I run the .bat, it opens up a cmd promt window like cgminer will run then 2 lines popup and before I can read what it says it closes the cmd prompt

I tried changing the -I from 5 going up, nothing worked

Am I doing anything wrong here, why can't cgminer run? If I run the cgminer.exe by itself it says no devices detected

I went to this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=342311.0 and it says openCL but I dont think thats the problem as I'm using a Nvidia Geforce 770M with the latest drivers

Thanks

I'm guessing you're trying to do gpu mining.

If that's the case, you have to download cgminer 3.7.2 or lower.

Cgminer removed the GPU mining option in the later versions
