Bifury 5Gh

[Launchy]

Hello all,

i have purchased a Bifury 5 GH on amazon.

i'm having problems to run it on bfgminer.
can someone tell me what to do? from installing the driver (what driver?) to make it appear on Bfgminer (what version)?
I have a windows XP and a Vista.

Please explain in "Neweby" mode :-).

Lots of good info there.  Also there is a good tutorial on how to update the firmware in this thread as well.
Links to drivers as well.

You'll need a lots lots of Bitfury miners in order to make any profit of mining...

Or here are the links:


The hardest one to find is the .inf driver file for windows.  Find it at this link... It's under "Other Files" --> "Miners" --> "BFGminer by Luke-Jr"  --> BFGminer windows inf (driver)

Use BFGMiner 3.9.0 available here:

http://luke.dashjr.org/programs/bitcoin/files/bfgminer/3.9.x/

You will want either 32 or 64-bit depending on your operating system

bfgminer-3.9.0-win64.zip
bfgminer-3.9.0-win32.zip

Your batch file (.bat) should look something similar to this:
 (please fill in your mining pool info, along with worker name and password)


bfgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -O workername:password -S all

I can't find that inf file.  Am I missing something?
