I am trying to mine Vertcoin using the P2Pool locally and I am getting error messages that "Bitcoin it too old. Upgrade to .5". I am being disconnected and banned for bad behavior.

Elaborate on the part in bold. Also, where are you getting this message from? Where are you being disconnected from, the p2pool?
As for the hardware errors, most probably a setting issue. Have you tried mining on a regular pool, just to see if you have any other related issues?
where she will go , up or down , or stay stable .
Sorry I will try to be more precise. I am trying to run p2pool-lyra2RE-WIN32 (run_p2pool.exe) on my local machine where I run my Vertcoin wallet. It starts up and then I start getting error messages thrown - command window where the p2pool program is running. I am running 9.0.2 wallet (qt), as I said, on the same machine. Because this does not work, I tried mining on the p2pool nodes that are linked to from the Vertcoin.org website. I picked a node in Canada (Network 1) and its works but I get anywhere from 15% to 40% rejects and no hardware errors. So I switched to another node in the US but on that node I get thousands of hardware errors running the same program and settings as I use for the node in Canada.
I have tried mining on give-me-coins.com and everything works fine but I did not to add more hashrate to an already good sized pool. I was hoping to solve these other problems with the P2Pool mining if possible.
Thanks again.
