hey guys,

ive been meaning to try this mining out and potentially build a mining rig out of some old pc parts i have.

so at present ive set it all up on my mac to try it out, before going to the trouble of building a rig. ive set up to mine in slush's pool, enetered the details on mac miner, which i believe is the same as bfgminer, which is supported by the pool.

ive started the miner but its never accepting anything, i just get this message every 20s;

20s:  0.0 avg:  0.0 u:  0.0  h/s | A:0 R:0+0(none) HW:0/none

and every 10-20 min i get this;

 [2014-09-14 17:32:06] Stratum from pool 0 detected new block

any ideas on what ive done wrong?.

Normal. Your mac is so useless that it cannot find any valid shares to submit.
Btw, you cant "build a mining rig out of some old pc parts".

Might try  a Scrypt coin, but sadly GPU day's are gone for most.  I think it's having trouble mining bitcoin it does not stand a chance against asics.  I cannot be sure but i know some old asics without proxy that act the same.
