a little help for a new dogecoin miner - with CPU

[ipis5581]

I'm using Windows Server 2019 and I want to do CPU mining with CPUminer (or whatever is best).  I downloaded CPUMiner from sourceforge, and I get one zip file with one exe inside.  Once the exe is unzipped to the desktop, I double click on the exe and nothing happens.  I read somewhere to try to open it with the command line, but couldn't get that to work either (may not be doing it right).

I'd appreciate some advice on how to actually USE cpuminer, (or is there something else I can use?), also, advice on what's the simplest and best pool to join...I'm a brand new dogecoin miner (potential) and am still learning how it works...

Dont you think it is a bit late dig in doge. Coin allready made 300-400% high. What do you expect to do more like 1000%

it works with ant miner L3+ asic miners.

Holy shit, is it 2012 again   next youll want to scypt mine with GPU's, then it will be 2013 for you.

Just so you know its 2021 and scrypt coins use ASICS and dodgecoin is merge mined these days.

I had to read the date a few times to make sure nobody was bumping an old thread from 2012, but I in fact did read it correctly 2021 instead of 2012. So I am wondering why anyone would want to mine LTC with not only a desktop GPU but a desktop CPU.

Either way if you really want to mine something with a CPU, try monero. If you got a decent CPU you can actually make a profit these days. However mining with a CPU? These days there are many outdated ASICs that can't mine Scrypt, let alone a GPU and certainly not a CPU.

What CPU do you have exactly?

You can't mine meaningful with a PC/server. Your CPU or GPU won't give you a good hash rate on scrypt and you will never exceed the payout threshold on any pool or find a block mining solo.

If you are only here because you want to learn about mining, you can get cpuminer up and running on the testnet like I described here: https://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/comments/mtjbpb/solo_merged_mining_doge_and_ltc_local_cpu_and_asic/

Abstain from this because it's a complete waste of time, don't bother mining dogecoin, if your CPU is high enough you can still make something out of it by mining randomX algorithm coin or cryptonight coins but still won't make big difference

You can mine vertcoin with the onboard gpu on the motherboard.

The H110BTC motherboard gpu produce around 70Khash ($0.42 a day). Make sure to reserve enough gpu memory in the bios 2gb is enough.
