Got my R-box  !! Gave it to my friend as it was a present... he still hasn't touched it...... I gave it to him to compenstate for the hydro.. I think I am just gonna give him $100 and take it back as just watching it sit there and do nothing is annoying. |

I have my review live of the R-Box and an interview with our own CrazyGuy in it as well. Thanks again for the help CrazyGuy. I will be interviewing Alex of Rockminer as well very soon. I really like how the community has come together to support the Rockminer guys. Great miners guys thanks again. http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/news/rockminer-r-box-32-ghs-bitcoin-miner-asicminer-be200-asic-chips/2014/06/25We have seen several new Bitcoin/SHA-256 miners come out as well as announcements of plenty more to come as well. One miner that has come out recently is the RockMiner R-Box. It is a 32+ gh/s miner built using ASICMiner’s Gen 3 40nm BE200 chip in a small Orb type package. This smaller unit is an exciting development as the original Block Eruptor was a large, power sucking space heater. The original Block eruptor worked well, but this is an excellent improvement in both power consumption, performance and relative heat generation.
Specifications:
Hash Rate: 32-37GH/S
Power consumption: 40-50W Note it uses a 2.5mm 12V power connection
Chip: ASICMiner’s Gen 3 40nm BE200
Miner Dimensions: 90mm(L)x90mm(W)x70mm(H) |

Rocket Box 450G-490G 480W[shipping around 27th,June] Are these no longer shipping on the 25th as promised? I have had no recent email communication and no tracking info on an order i placed almost 2 weeks ago that should presumably be with a courier by now. |

I know they are hard at work packing and shipping so I have a feeling info will start flowing as soon as they have a min. They are not a scam by any means. I am so excited to see these in hand myself.  Rocket Box 450G-490G 480W[shipping around 27th,June] Are these no longer shipping on the 25th as promised?

First post here, though I've been mining with scrypt GPU rig for a while.. Rocket Box seems really interesting with good $/ghs ratio! Will you have DELL or LITEON PSU's (750w) in stock soon? I'm looking for to add some to my order |

My R-Box stopped working today... I had to power off the device to move to different room.
It now does not respond to BFGminer 4.2. This is on WinXP.
If I un-plug and plug the USB cable the PC responds with a beep like it is acknowledging the device.
It has been working flawlessly since 6/14 with only of a couple of the DEAD status which was recovered by just restarting BFGmener.
Anyone else had any problems with their R-Box?
It there any diagnostic software to see if the device is at all responding?

Have you tried a different machine? I love XP as well but it is aging... |

Yes, this is my original PC it had USB Erupters that I had to move to a different PC because the R-Box and them did not play well together.
The 2nd PC with the moved erupters do not like the R-Box at all as well, though it had never been plugged into that PC until this test, but has the erupters running just fine.
So I did try it on a 3rd WinXP PC and guess what it works! This 3rd PC never had any miners plugged into it until this test.
I still want it back on the 1st PC that I use for mining, I plan on adding a couple more R-Box units there.
I have been trying to completely remove all USB driver from that PC and re-install, so far no luck.
It had 16 USB COM ports from the previous erupters being on that PC, I was able to delete all the COM ports and plug-n-play reinstalled the one for the R-Box when I plugged it back in, but it is still not working with BFGminer. In the debug log it says
[2014-06-26 14:51:10] rockminer: Successfully opened \\.\COM1
[2014-06-26 14:51:10] rockminer: Error sending request to \\.\COM1
[2014-06-26 14:51:10] rockminer: Successfully opened \\.\COM3
[2014-06-26 14:51:11] rockminer: Short read from \\.\COM3 (0)
COM3 is where the R-BOX is set to.
COM1 is my keyboard/mouse PS2 to USB adapter and has always been there.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to completely remove the USB software and re-install, google has been some but not very useful help.
I will be trying everything I find till I get it figured out, and will post any success that I have.

Getting your driver from here right? http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/pages/usbtouartbridgevcpdrivers.aspxAlso, just install the new driver OVER the old one, Windows should take care of the rest. If still having issues, run a registry cleaning tool, CCleaner has one built in. |

Hmm, is the USB port on the PC a USB3.0 by chance? |

It is a older PC. It was running fine on this PC for almost 3 weeks. I had to power off to move the PC.
It has not worked on it since I powered back up.
I had tested the R-Box on a 3rd PC, it worked there, I even have a debug log from it. I tried it again on that 3rd PC and it now does not work.
I think this R-Box just died, or there is something really wrong with it.
Went you plug and un-plug the usb cable the pc beeps to acknowledge it, if you uninstall the driver, it re-installs when plugged back it, it just does not want to communication to BFG anymore.
I think I will have to send it back and get it replaced.
