Does anyone know why this miner wont run on my laptop? I have it running on my desktop with no issues but when I try and set it up on the laptop in the same way I get this issue -



Thanks.

missing cpuminer_opt file.... check your antivirus and set exclusion to it.

download from rplant pool or srb-multi

I did disable all anti-virus and firewall and it still wont work with a new download. I then changed "cpuminer_opt" to just "cpuminer" and it runs.

On my desktop there also is no "cpuminer_opt" file and just a "cpuminer" executable, but the "opt" command works for the desktop, but not for the laptop.

Very odd.

It can be syntax fault...

You should run it as for example C:\MinerApps\WhateverDirectory\cpuminer_opt.exe  ........
Instead of just getting into folder and running  cpuminer_opt

Your system on laptop is probably different than on desktop ..or at least its differently configured. On laptop it doesn't recognize cpuminer  as a command.
