Check this first:

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison

Your 4350 will make something around 8Mh/s...

That is 0.003834 BTC per day or with a course of 11USD/BTC something like 0.042174 USD per day

Four cents a day doesn't seem at all worth the effort. I think I'll pass on bitcoin mining then, thank you for your help!

I'll try out Ubuntu 10.10 later. I'd gladly try another card, but this is all I have. I'm currently running Windows 7 64 bit, and there are AMD supported drivers for both my OS's.

I'm only running that one card and I have a monitor plugged in. I'm just trying to mine bitcoins in the time that I'm using my PC, so it'll always be using that card and have a monitor plugged in while mining.

@nopan There is not.

If you're on a Windows OS connect a display device or a modified adapter to the card, otherwise Windows doesn't activate the card.

Activate the display in screen resolution dialog before you start the miner and it should work.


Could you elaborate a bit on this? I'm not very hardware savvy.

Safest way of selling bitcoins?

Is there any truly safe way of selling bitcoins? I've been looking at bitcoinexchange.cc, though I'm a bit uneasy about using this as somewhere to get money for my bitcoins. I hate using paypal, but I don't feel safe giving out my bank info either, so a way to get cash for my bitcoins would also be nice to know.

Thank you in advance to all who are helpful.

I'm currently running an ATI Radeon 4350 HD card, and I've installed the latest drivers as well as AMD APP SDK, yet GUIMiner only picks up my CPU. Has anyone else had this issue and know how to fix it?
