Title: Hi everyone!
Post by: shwackd on October 06, 2013, 01:59:59 PM
I'm Excited to be here.  Although, I must admit solo mining all night long with my processor on 100% yielded nothing :(  Maybe somebody can help me out getting my machine to be able to mine something else other than Litecoin!?    For some reason only one pool works for me and only on reapear.  I can't get Guiminer scrypt working at all.  What I need is cudaminer but every link I have found links to the downed bitcointalk forum.   Any help on mining Goldcoins would be realllly appreciated.  I have a core i7 with 9 gigs of ram and GTX 660 video card and am willing to purchase some AMD cards if this is exciting enough.

Welcome to the the Goldcoin community.

If i was you i would only use a pool to mine instead of solo mining.

I found where you can download Cudaminer https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/280-cudaminer-a-new-litecoin-mining-application-windowslinux/

Thank you very much! It says I need dependencies to build on windows?  I've never "built" anything before but I'm about to learn how.   Also, I received my 100 GLD, thank you very much! 

I do have one problem with pooling, I haven' been able to get anything other than kattare's pool working for me.  GUIminer alpha stopped opening for me, and just does nothing when I double click it, and repear has been the only thing that works, but unable to connect to any pool except one.  I have my workers set up correctly, I have all the server info input correctly, something is just not working out for me.  I tried turning my windows firewall off, nothing. I am on a recent Win 7 install so I don't think I should have any issues with that.  I have all the latest drivers downloaded, and have installed the Cuda toolkit form Nvidia. 

I'm hoping that with Cudaminer not only can I get my rates increased but I can also start connecting to other pools!  It's really frustrating only being able to connect to a single pool, I would have been mining goldcoins with  my GPU all night long instead of litecoins.   If I can't get this to work out, I would be willing to pay somebody in bitcoins for personal help getting all this worked out.   I have a core i7 with 9 gigs of ram and more than willing to buy myself a set of AMD's if I could just get past these initial hurdles.
