yeah this gekko is picky, so I went to the official gekko support page on this forum, started installing cgminer then they wanted me to add all of these other programs and then my computer started acting funny so i was like screw this.... AV and FW up...... i have to exclude cgminer.exe from av. one of the programs i downloaded gave me a nasty little bug, started right-clicking and moving my mouse randomly and my file explorer text all disappeared then i alt ctrl delete my task manager text disappeared i was like fuck this restart with AV first. i believe it was when i downloaded MinGW or some weird program i have no idea what it is used for, started to disable my firewall and my av i am just glad i caught it in time I HOPE i took back control but now i am mining my computer trying to get rid of everything scanning manually and AV also just put my vpn up again incase they try to backdoor me or something
