Mining Begins November 5, 08:08:08 UTC

I'm wondering, how much bandwidth is used by the minning process (more or less)? is it possible to verify?

Newb problems:

I cannot install the Windows binary.

Windows 7 (32-bit)
7-zip

"protoshares-qt.exe - System Error
The program can't start because libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing from your computer.
Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

It appears that libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll was unpacked OK?

Edit: Fixed by using Windows extractor instead of 7-zip.

Help -> Debug Window -> Console

Enter: getmininginfo

It should give you stats...

Yes, it will automatically show up in your wallet.

Hi, i have some noob questions...
I downloaded the soft for windows this morning. In a first time i couldn't find any node, but now it's working thanks to yours advises "addnode 162.243.61.72 add" (i think).
Now i click on mine 3 processes, it seems working.
I would like to verify my hashrate on windows, how could i do that?
If i find a block, the protoshares will automatically go to my PTS adress? do I make adjustments other than clicking 3 processes

Thank you guys, i'm enjoying my first minning coins experience  ;)

probably because our seed nodes are over loaded.  You will have to add some manually.

OK... I know that I am new here... But if anyone else has seen this problem and can give me some help, I would greatly appreciate some direction... I am seeing an error when I run the windows software.  "No Block source available".   Thanks again for your patience, but I am not sure next step to get this software up and running?

noob question - so I've downloaded the Windows client and am currently mining @1.75GB Mine two processes. The task manager shows about 1.6GB being used by the software, so that seems good. There's no indication though that it's mining or not. The console log doesn't seem to help much. Any easy way to confirm it's actually doing what it's supposed to do?

Help > debug > console

write:  getmininginfo

if hashespermin > 0 then your client is mining :)

Downloaded Windows Protoshare Wallet.  How do I mine?  I am seeing an error on Wallet when I start it up, "No Block source available"  Any help appreciated?

Windows client is very sensitive to changing number of threads for mining...keeps crashing for me and having issues now getting it to mine again.

My advice is..if it's mining away, don't touch it! :-)

where were you modifying the threads? thx

Yes, within the settings menu.

I will test later on a more powerful machine :).
