Greetings.
It's been a while.
I have two things: 1: I have had 3 NewPac running pretty much nonstop for 3.5 years now. Amazing!
2: One of them is no longer recognized by cgminer as a valid device and I want to know if there is anything I can do or if I should just let it rest in peace.
I tried moving it from the GekkoHub on a pi to windows and got the same results. Both see the other 2 newpacs with no issue leading me to belive it's the one unit.
This is the message in cgminer from windows. Yes I have WinUSB installed using Zadig. When I run the windows driver installer the bad newpac does not show as a NewPac but as FWICsomethingsomething.
