Man, that sounds like a horrible thing to have to live with... Kudos for picking yourself back up and just getting on with things!

I was using v3 of nwools' bfgminer build, but have just switched over to v3.10.0 of the official build which seems to be working equally well (get it here)

Before using it you need to go into device manager and uninstall the drivers for each antminer (make sure you tick the box to delete the drivers when you do it), then install the VCP driver again. When you've done that, unplug the hub and plug it back in and it should detect the antminers again.
You don't need to mess around with that zadig nonsense now... It should be ready to rock if you just run bfgminer with a command line like the following;

Code:

bfgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://sha-256.megamultipool.com:5000 -u myusername.myworkername -p mypassword -S antminer:all -S all --set-device antminer:clock=x0981

Enjoy the playoffs!

I finally got a chance to switch to bfgminer from cgminer... and um... yeah... much better! Thanks for the help!

And yeah, the headaches are absolute torture that no one that doesn't get them can possibly understand. I've talked to women that have gone through natural childbirth that say their cluster headaches are much worse. Happily I have great family and a truly exceptional wife. There are plenty of times I would like to end it all, but at those times I usually don't have the energy to follow through with it, and I don't want to do that to my family, or frankly my dog. The family would understand, the dog wouldn't and she takes very good care of me. She even occasionally warns me when one is about to hit me. Sadly my dog is getting old, 13 and a half now and last summer she got very sick, we thought we were going to lose her. $10,000+ later (and of course my wife lost her job shortly after that and it took 5 months to find a new one, but she's worth every penny, we'll get it paid off eventually) she seems to be doing very well health wise, however last week she lost her second eye so she is totally blind now. We don't know if the illness had anything to do with it or not, but her she developed really extreme glaucoma in one eye last fall causing her a lot of pain. She blew some blood vessels in the eye and couldn't really see out of it anymore so we decided to just remove it to stop the pain. 3 weeks later she detached the retina of her other eye so she was pretty much blind from then on. 2 weeks ago she developed the same extreme glaucoma in the other eye, very swollen and painful so since she couldn't really see anymore anyway we decided to take the other eye a week ago Friday. She definitely seems to be feeling better now though! she just gets lost sometimes so I get to be her seeing eye person. So yeah, I get pretty down sometimes, but I try to enjoy the times I'm feeling good. Life goes on, just make the best of the good times. the headaches have slowed down a lot, I'm only getting one every few weeks now, though I still have a constant sort of mild migraine it's still much better than it has been. And I'm hopeful I will get another complete remission for a few years. That happens from time to time too. I've had them since I was 8, and the longest remission I've had was around 5 years. So hopefully I have one of those on the way soon after 12 years of not having one. Grin

That would be nice!

Sorry if I'm oversharing... sometimes it helps to just dump it out on complete strangers. I hate to dump it on my family or my wife since they already have to put up with me.

Anyway, love the ants and bfgminer looks to be far superior to cgminer at this stage. So far my average speed looks like it is 2ghps faster across 6 ants overclocked at 2Ghps, so like getting one of them free in comparison to cgminer. and no hardware errors yet. In cgminer over 4 days of continuous running only 1 of the ants had less than 1000 errors.

I'm going to go pet my dog now Wink
