Alrighty, you've downloaded the wolf cpu miner, extracted the files and you already have a wallet address?
Launch the command promt, just search for "cmd" and execute it. Depending on where the mining application is located (as in where you have extracted the files) on your PC, you now need to navigate there with the command promt. Assuming that you have extracted all the files on the desktop, you type "cd desktop" and confirm. Note, if the files are in a folder on the desktop, let's call it "miner", you'd first navigate to the desktop and then to this folder (cd desktop --> cd miner)
Now you need to start the miner with the command, that you can find on the getting started page of the pool you want to use. It looks like the following:
minerd -a cryptonight-light -o stratum+tcp://aeon.kryptopool.com:3333 -u YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS -p x
Replace "YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS" with your wallet address and execute the command.
That's it! Let me know if there is anything unclear
This is exactly what i did, but when i execute the command line it says minerd is not a command and nothing happens.
Rename the extension from .txt to .bat.
Put in there...
Code:
minerd -a cryptonight-light -o stratum+tcp://54.153.36.187:5555 -u Wms7kyfy6UdeFTy4mkXCJ1d4p16fDSttJJhBXWDktv4FRD9GDwwa2C6jQC2QatEs3Q4VSbhS92ese18hyFaaEKRN2VXfD4zAD -p x -t 8
This is my .bat for sumominer's pool.Change address, pool and number of threads, -t 8 is for an 8 core AMD processor.
Click at that .bat file to start mining.

The command prompt only flickers and vanish. No deal.
Also tried to run the bat file with admin rights but got the same error.

Are you sure you have the right miner?
Mine is cpuminer-wolf-with-cryptonight-light-w64-AES-NI-04082015

I just started mining on the kryptopool today and am getting a tad over 1100 H/S on average. With that hashrate should I be in the 3333, 5555, or 7777 pool as far as difficulty? I started in the 3333 pool that says "low end hardware", but I wondered if I should switch to a higher difficulty pool? Thanks!
