I changed as post #210.  and still got ZOMBIE after only a few seconds at almost all miner settings.

I wonder why the red led comes on when the usb plug is inserted and not the power cord.  My thinking is that the unit requires a powered USB port.
switching the unit over to a powered usb, stopped my ZOMBIE problem.

Also the thing is a lonely beast.  All other miners were removed from the computer (win 7).

messing with the voltage and freq settings it tops out at 66.5Gh/s which quickly declined.

It hovers around 53GH/s at the setting recommended.

Zombie, unplug, reset, zombie, etc...

I just unloaded my 13 BFL on ebay and bought a chili rig. Just within the last couple of days, I've gone from .0019 to .0013 a block running at 35 gh/s. It's all about custom rigs that can turn out 100's of GH/s plus. No reason to buy the little stuff.

Also, remember this:
USB stands for yoU Suck Balls. Don't buy a USB miners.

Chili rig?   Audio equipment.

Wow ! i'm really glad i started following bitcoin information.  After read a few posts on mining, i discovered my drivers for my graphics card were out of date.  (maybe not even installed) Withthe help of GPU caps Viewer i was able to get updated.  Now i'm checking out the GUIminer program.

I like the open air computers the miners are useing.  I saw some frame material on ebay at the 80/20 Store.  They sell extruded t-slot and an aluminum quick frame product.  They also sell the plastic connectors for the ends.

I am the newest bee in the hive.  I barely know what a bitcoin is.  There is a great article in WIRED magazine about bitcoins.  This led me to do google searches, etc.. download a wallet, bit miner pool website.
I like the hardware side of bitcoin and mining.  My lowly celeron 440 just cant mine bitcoins fast enough.  Any help getting started?
