So, I'm a noob to mining, and I bought a GAW Miner Fury to get my started and into mining. I've searched up with how to set up the miner with the software and everything but when I open up the BAT file, the application will just close and I don't know what I'm doing incorrect. Hope to get some help here:

So, I'm using CG Miner. CGMiner that I got from the Zeus' Website.

My BAT file reads as:

::www.zeusminer.com cn.zeusminer.com
cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum1.altnuts.com
:3333 -u VUSd2ykCJRDwQ8ciG97HeL2VpjoC19WKj4.Vishera -p x -S //./COM4 --chips-count 128 --ltc-clk 328 --nocheck-golden

I have the USB drivers installed, and the COM4 port is same as what's in Device Manager.

I'm Mining on the AltNuts SuperNET pool, payout in VeriCoin.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

If I'm not mistaken, the GAW Fury is identical to the Zeus Blizzard. If that's true, your chips-count in your bat file is way too big. In my bat file for the Zeus Blizzard, I use a chips-count of 5.

Like sdmathis said, your chipcount is off and the GAW Fury is a rebranded Zeus Blizzard.  You should make sure that you downloaded the correct mining software from their site and not the version for X6 Devices.  Something else to note is that their version of cgminer is based on cgminer 3.1 which is a very old version.  If you want to try with the cgminer that you have all you have do is add the --scrypt variable and change the chip count.  The GAW fury has 6 chips, so your BAT file should look like so:

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum1.altnuts.com:3333 -u VUSd2ykCJRDwQ8ciG97HeL2VpjoC19WKj4.Vishera -p x -S //./COM4 --chips-count 6 --ltc-clk 328 --nocheck-golden

If you want to use a newer miner that gets constant updates, is supported and works with the Fury, then I would suggest you look at bfgminer.  If you go that route, then your bat file would look like this:

bfgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum1.altnuts.com:3333 -u VUSd2ykCJRDwQ8ciG97HeL2VpjoC19WKj4.Vishera -p x -S zus:all --set zus:chips=6 --set zus:freq=328
