Hi.. I ran the batch file but it remains in black.. nothing is showed on screen... How can I test tohse devices (I have 12) to check if they work? Thanks!
Go to the command line program (cmd) navigate to the folder where you put CGminer and try running it by typing CGminer then hit enter. See if it runs or if it gives you errors. Also, make sure that your batch file is pointing to the correct folder, or that the batch file is in the same folder as the CGminer program
@@calvinthedestroyer i think there Is a mistake with pool parameters... I'm not sure if I need an acrive one to make it work... I'm new on this... Thanx in adcance for the help
How do you make a batch file? And y is my miner showing offline on slushpool? My blc usb miner is mining but it says it’s offline on my slushpool.!? Plz help!!!
, these miners are so slow it could be that they are working it's just that they don't show up because the number that the mine is so far past the decimal point
hehe.. ASIC,, aplication specific integrated circuit .. although Block erupters are kinda expensive for only 330MH , a gekkosciece 2pac does 23000 MH with the same ammount of power.. and they cost half as much
It came back out, look at Dollar General, in there "Dollar Deals" section. If they don't have it near you, then you can pay me to buy and ship some to you. :)
purchased a CP2102 V3 to experiment with these USB Erupters. I cant for the life of me get a Firmware to recognize the USB. BFGminer wont boot for some reason (minGW completely updated) CGMiner boots open wont find USB, tried all drivers with Zadig, no success. Please feel free to tell me a "how-to step-by-step for 2021" because i dont care if i make $.000001, i'm more interested in learning proper available setup.
@@calvinthedestroyer the CP2102 is how the windows system sees the block erupter device. It appears to map the usb device to a com port. I'm having the same issues as the OP for this. The system sees the erupter as a com3 device and it looks good, but cgminer acts like it's not there.
So, when i turn on CGMINER with a .exe file it sees the ASIC and it works with it(thx btw), the bat file doesnt work and how did u got the 4.1 cgminer on windows help appreciated oh i dont have mingw (if i have to i install basic setup or all packages?)
The batch file is something that you create. it just calls the .exe and passes it your user name, password and pool address. I did not have to use mingw, I found a version of cgminer online. I can look to see if I still have it.
@@carlosacosta8835 the insilicon T2T 25T turbo that I bought is a stand alone unit, it just needs power and ethernet. You can login to it from any pc on the network.
I'm curious... Other than a small amount of power, why are people bothering with the small little 333mhs block erupters? I see them all the time for 30 - 60 bucks. I wouldn't think they would sell at that point. I still have like 10 of them.
Brian Wamsley I don't know ether, I heard a roomor about making these run off solar panels but that's still a lot of effort for little payout. Could be that they buy them for nestolgic reasons?
That or people think that bitcoins will continue to increase in value to the point where it will off set the high price they paid to mine for them, kind of like get the gold now at whatever cost and then sit on it for ten years.
i believe calvin and brian that they are slow but they are a good start for people who are just starting with bitcoin to learn rather than spending a few grand first off.
Would be nice to see what file you opened in CGminer to configure the darn thing. All I have on my computer is a ton of files but nothing that looks remotely close to a config or example config file. Another reason I am sticking to my GPU rig. Thanks, and next time specify the file or put a word int he description as I can't see your screen.

@@pablohernansilvestri8020 it's been years since I ran those, so maybe something had changed. Look up how to do solo mining with CGminer.
Work?
@@kitonepluswong7889 huh? These block erupters don't make enough profit anymore to use. Even if you had free power.
Recently purchased one of these USB miners and I plug it in and the driver is unavailable its on windows 10 any ideas?
Sorry, I don't have any experience with win10. Can you install drivers manually?

You can use Windows notepad to create batch files where you write in all the commands and then save it as a .Bat file, instead of a .txt

Hello, what do you need help with? (keep in mind that it takes a few weeks before youtube shows me new comments sometimes)
I'm using bfgminer and it says no useable GPU, do you know how to fix this issue?
They should show up as AMU not GPU, GPU stands for Graphics cards. Try running Zadig again. (I'm not familiar with BFminer)
Go here to download CGMINER Ver4.90 www.dsprototyping.com/cg490.7z
Help. Can I mine cronos with it?
I don't think you can. These block erupters only solve hashes with shaw256.
Where did you find a jolt soda I have been looking all over for one like they don't make jolt anymore

@@terrorninja as far as I know bfminer only works with gpu's. said the same thing to me when I tried it. you have to use CGMINER for the ASIC miners
