        Hey everyone,

        I use AWS Amazon EC2 cloud instance for my programming purpose. Out of my curiosity, i wanted to try BITCOIN mining here.  Huh

        But, GUI Miner did NOT work on this Windows 7. New OpenCL miner option is missing from File-> New.

        How do i mine here guys? Any suggestions?  Cry

I would recommend trying to mine a CPU based coin on AWS like primecoin or quark.  Trying to mine btc on AWS will not be cost effective in the least bit as the ASIC machines have 1000x higher hash speed then a setup you can get on AWS. More about the issues of mining btc on AWS here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=8405.0

Perhaps Opencl miner option is missing because the hardware is incompatible.
