I did some homework before I posted, and then I did more homework as I waited. Hopefully it helps someone somehow
+ 1million for that http://www.sherv.net/cm/emo/word/congrats-smiley-emoticon.gif

You are one of the few newbs here in a long long time who knows how to learn: 1st research and *then* ask questions. Most just say "give me a fish!" (a single answer). Ja, we'll give you a fish - a fish smack in the head. You asked "teach me to fish" (how does is work), lo and behold -- you get teachers.

I really try, I'm an AV installer by trade so I'm familiar with troubleshooting. If you mess with something and it stops working, try and set it back to last known good settings. If you can't, soft reset. If that doesn't work, factory reset. If you can't, call tech support and keep trying while you're on hold for 40 minutes. If no tech support, fuck with it until it works. I read through like 50 pages of this thread while I was waiting, hence the 8 updates on my original post haha


Also, update on my 2pac: I switched the to a different usb port than I was originally using before I went to bed last night and left the stick at 100MHZ at 1.32v. Checked on it before I went to work, it was down to 3.5GH/s, don't remember how many HW errors but I'd assume there were a few and it only gathered like 3,000 shares so it stopped really hashing right after I went to bed. That was about 7 hours ago now. Unplugged the stick and plugged it back in, checked volatge and it was 1.34 (didn't touch potentiometer) and restarted cgminer, been hashing 100MHZ at ~10GH/s all day but I've got about 9 HW errors...are those from getting too much power?
