Hello everyone!

any time i try to run the latest version i get this error
"guiminer.exe - Entry Point Not Found"

The procedure entry point wcscat_s could not be located in the dynamic link library ntdll.ll."

i've done some searching and haven't been able to find much.
i'm running Windows Vista Business 64-bit sp2
my pc specs:
AMD Phenom II X4 965
4.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 666MHz (9-7-9-18)
MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO.,LTD 790FX-GD70(MS-7577)
ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series

Just wondering if anyone was able to compile the new revision of this program. I can't use "pytoexe" since a flat 2.5 doesn't exist on the python website (its 2.7 or newest 3.x)

I saw a file setup.py and tried to run it and it was looking for that to run it. Its also throwing warnings that code wont work with future version.

Thanks

edit...

SO if you've been trying to compile what seems new , I'm still not getting near it even after installing portable python 2.7 to get all the lib files it mentions on

https://github.com/Kiv/poclbm

I think I'm missing something since it doesn't recognize openCL devices and/or give me the option to select a pool and such other needed items and those are not listed as to what is needed to make it work (be it a shortcut or not to run command line or get the UI to show up).

I've noted it on issues though if someone figure out whats going on post here post here and if you have a solution also put there.

Thanks

Did you close the command box that appears when you log with un-compiled version using files from githhub? Thats the only time I've experienced the program closing like that.

Try checking the log files that I think it creates or make a shortcut to it and look for how to make a log file on google or your preferred search engine.

there are no errors in the log file... and no i did not close any command box's there were none

I would have thought it was going to be you missing a file or something else. The closing like that I've only seen like I said when you close the boxes that open with the uncompiled version from Kiv on github.

If you don't have too many workers setup you could delete the poclbm.ini file and see if its catching on anything by letting it save again if you have one. Last couple times I've had problems it was that.

The package on guiminer.org works so maybe you just clear the current use off and run that. I think the newer one so far that I've seen only has extra support for butterfly labs devices and a longer server list.

[Nonyme-As-gui]

When I try to start mining, I get "Connection problems" in the speed section. Then, it starts but I don't get any score with my server. I don't know where I have to check if my bitcoin.conf contains the correct username and password.

I am using:

GUIMiner version: v2012-12-03
Operating system: Windows 7 SP1 X64
Miner backend:
Video card: ATI 6870
Server: Slush's pool

[forzendiablo]

Just fyi btc guild has blocked guiMiner. They had alot of denial of service attacks and for whatever it was noted they blocked guiminer. My guiMiner would mine at least eclipseMC but I never got into the details of how to set up a config file to make cg miner work through it without filling out the fields and with newer equipment.

Just at least if your using cgminer through it , get the newest version and direct it to that one and not the old one that may be included. At least cgminer has been updated in the last 12 months.

GUIMiner closes if I click the icon. The window does not appear after launching. How do I get it to work?

[Stick56]

Can i mine alt coins like (LTC),(XPM),(PPC) with GUI miner? If no which miner will be best to give those alt coins a try.

[rampalija]

r9 280x now comeing


Cant wait to get them

[dietrich67]

Can you use ASIC USBs with GUIMiner?

I've seen the answer both ways here and elsewhere.

If yes, then can anyone share a "how-to"?

If no, is this a planned new feature for the future?

Thanks,

I finally got this to recognize my 6950 and it is hashing around half the rate of the CPU, I thought GPU's were meant to be faster for mining?
GPU - 240Kh/s
CPU - 540Kh/s
Is there anything I can do to make the GPU faster short of overclocking the card?
