      Cool, i’ll try it now! Keep you posted!

      Thanks for the prompt response!

      So, I’m pretty weak at command line and from what I can see, cgminer is command line.

      I believe it stars off with url, username, password (?)

      Would i input the following in that order, pool.d2.cc, chansyoman, xx ?

      Also, to create a script, I would simply create a text file and change the extension to .bat correct?

      Should it look like the below?

      cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://pool.d2.cc:9344 -u chansyoman -p xx --thread-concurrency 21712 -w 256 -I 20 --lookup-gap 2 -g 1

      Feathers your way as soon as I get them!

      Hi Chan,

      I would suggest you use cgminer and join a pool like: http://ftc.d2.cc
      Then make a .bat script like:
      cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://featherpool.com:9998 -u workername -p password --thread-concurrency 21712 -w 256 -I 20 --lookup-gap 2 -g 1
      and tweak a bit from the thread things etc.

      See this link: https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/wiki/Mining-hardware-comparison what other people get with their vid-cards!

      That should work yes!
      Place the .bat in the same folder where cgiminer.exe is and doubleclick the .bat.

        Meant to ask, will this utilize both of my cards, or do I need to run the script twice?

          Well, if you’re interested here’s my Reaper config files:
          litecoin.conf
          [code]
          host 91.121.1.102
          port 9344
          user ShadowEW.[worker]
          pass [password]

          protocol litecoin

          worksize 256
          vectors 1
          aggression 13
          threads_per_gpu 1
          sharethreads 3
          lookup_gap 2
          gpu_thread_concurrency 8192
          [/code]

          reaper.conf
          [code]kernel reaper.cl
          save_binaries yes
          enable_graceful_shutdown no
          long_polling yes

          mine litecoin

          device 0
          device 1
          [/code]

          As far as I can see, FTC seems to require slightly different settings to LTC. At least for me, I can’t run as many threads. :o

          The above config is setup for d2.cc

            By default it should detect and mine on both (or any) GPUs unless you specify otherwise.

              Ah, thanks!!!

              I’lll give it a shot. I assume I will copy and paste the below into the .conf files for both litecoin.conf and reaper.conf?

                Yep, and write in YOUR username.worker name and password.
                The config has been tested as working for/by me on reaperv13beta4_64

                Should just be able to hit reaper.exe and it’ll start up, not sure what results you’ll get as I have no 7950s to test with, but I’d assume you can just raise the aggression up freely to increase your khash.
                Be warned, high aggression (values 12-20) will slow down your desktop. That’s normal.

                  Hmm…

                  Doesn’t appear to be working. This is exactly what my batch file looks like:

                  cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://featherpool.com:9998 -u chansyoman1 -p 12 --thread-concurrency 21712 -w 256 -I 20 --lookup-gap 2 -g 1

                  I am getting a “No servers were found that could be used to get work from, Please check the details from the list below of the servers you have input”

                  Thoughts? :-[

                        Just wanted to update you guys!

                        I work in IT, and yet I can’t figure this out (hence why I am a Windows and not Linux guy LOL)

                        I resorted back to GUIminer, messed around with the URL and set use stratum to NO, and magic, it works!

                        BUT, still slow…3xxkh/s on BOTH 7950’s with 21712 thread concurrency, 13 intensity, 256 worksize, and 1 GPU thread each. d’oh! :'(

                            Try intensity 18/19/20 with 7950s.

                              Ah indeed thats my fault, try something like:
                              cgminer.exe -o http://pool.d2.cc:9344 -u chansyoman.1 -p [b]here should be your password[/b] --thread-concurrency 21712 -I 18

                              then later try to adjust other settings.

                                I’ll be spreading the love soon.

                                On another note, is anyone on btc-e and seeing FTC numbers? :-[
