Not trying to be funny, but it sounds as though you didn't really understand what you were buying in the first instance or how it works. For example although it is possible to mine through Bfgminer etc, its primarily designed to be a standalone miner, so you don't try and connect to it through USB with a PC running cg or bfg. Secondly it uses the old Getwork protocol as you have no doubt now found out, which means you can't mine directly to stratum servers, hence the use of a proxy.
Also, when it arrived, as well as opening it up and checking heat sink screws were tight, blades were in place properly etc, you would have probably been better off first off to factory reset the cube (I'm assuming it was a used cube, not new?). This would have saved you the trouble not being able to find the cube as it would have reverted back to the default 192.168.1.254.
The 8 chips not functioning sounds like a common fault I have read about in many threads here. Usually means that one of the voltage modules on the affected board has a fault and is not supplying enough voltage, are the X's all together on one side or the other of the board as displayed in the control panel?
