Hey people,

I have 4 gridseed miner that have been running stable for atleast a week.
Yesterday I added 4 more and CGminer crashes or goes idle (0 k/hash output) after 15-45 minutes with random "timeout getresults xxxx" messages.

I was short on time so I took the gamble of unplugging 2 of them last night, the other 6 of them seem to run stable now.

What could be the problem? I use a powered usb hub and an old windows 7 laptop and I already use the hotplug function.

Could it be that the laptop lacks the speed to process data for all miners? I have reinstalled cgminer and all drivers but having all 8 miners keeps giving the same problem.

Sorry if this question has been asked before, I've been looking around on the forum and google but cannot find an answer that helped.

Edit: I use a 750W gold rated psu with  4x2.1mm to molex cables (can handle up to 10A per cable) so it shouldn't be a power problem.

Solved the problem, turns out the "powered" usb hub couldn't handle more then 6.
I use normal usb slots for my other 2 miners now and its stable again.
