So the good news:

Got 3 of my 4 Compacs cranking steadily and stably at 300MHz.

The bad news:

Yeah - just 3. One of them zombied out. I would just figure I killed it, but if I fiddle with the voltage, it will catch low GH's but then degrade to MH's and eventually zombie out again. But most of the time it won't hash.

Also, when I plug into the hub I don't get the nice little Win10 sound. Doesn't matter which port in the hub or if it's by itself or not, so it's not the hub (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VDVCQ84/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1).

I even scaled back the power and clocks to 275MHz. Still the same. When I plug straight into a USB port in my PC tower, it DOES make the Win10 chime, but still doesn't try to hash.

Any advice - or is prolly fried?

Thanks all!

A few questions.

How are you cooling your mining sticks?
with 300MHz clock speed, what is vCore voltage reading?

Also a suggestion.

Instead of using official cgminer releases from ck, use one written by vh, which can be found: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1764803.0
This cgminer 4.10.0 is for SideHack's new 2PAC sticks but it also works great with original compac USB sticks.
