I'd argue that you'd still have to install 7z or some program that can deal properly with zip files. While I haven't tried Vista's and 7's implementation, at least XP's was pretty broken. (Stuff like random error messages for proper zip files or files in an archive being silently ignored.)
I have a friend who stopped supporting people who used windows' zip to extract his program because he knew that'd fail. So, please, if you want to continue using that POS, go ahead, but do stop spamming this thread about it... Sad

Pretty much everyone's needs something that supports zip and rar files. Not sure why you assume I use winzip, but I don't. I do think its better to use a compression everyone already needs support for, unless there is a reason to do otherwise.

Off-topic, but like ck was saying, I can't believe someone that's so ahead of the curve technology wise (by even USING bitcoin) would be so against this. And then he goes on saying how there's "no point to using 7z". But there is a point, it's a better program, and the files it generates are better in every way, not to mention how lightweight 7z is in the first place.

Do you still use XP? A dumbphone? CRT television? Even if you do, it doesn't make you right, and doesn't mean you're making the right choice. Technology won't stagnate just because you're unwilling to move forward with the rest of us. That's the whole point of technology in the first place, since it seems you have forgotten. But then you also had the gall to come in here with your ignorance, complain about 7z while arguing with multiple people as if you knew it wasn't a good program. Does it ever end?

Hey guys,

I can't seem to run CGMiner with the --scrypt option.
I always run into the following error, followed by CGMiner disabling all GPUs and the crashing (dialog of the program is not responding comes up).

Anyone know why?
I have 3 5970s.

Sorry if this is obvious, but first, try using the latest cgminer.
Also, that little echo script thing you have goin on is mega cute bro. Mad props.
