This file is included in the Windows binary package. Compile instructions
|
|
for Linux and Windows can be found in RELEASE_NOTES.
|
|
|
|
cpuminer is a console program that is executed from a DOS command prompt.
|
|
There is no GUI and no mouse support.
|
|
|
|
Miner programs are often flagged as malware by antivirus programs. This is
|
|
a false positive, they are flagged simply because they are cryptocurrency
|
|
miners. The source code is open for anyone to inspect. If you don't trust
|
|
the software, don't use it.
|
|
|
|
Choose the exe that best matches you CPU's features or use trial and
|
|
error to find the fastest one that doesn't crash. Pay attention to
|
|
the features listed at cpuminer startup to ensure you are mining at
|
|
optimum speed using all the available features.
|
|
|
|
Architecture names and compile options used are only provided for Intel
|
|
Core series. Pentium and Celeron often have fewer features.
|
|
|
|
AMD CPUs older than Piledriver, including Athlon x2 and Phenom II x4, are not
|
|
supported by cpuminer-opt due to an incompatible implementation of SSE2 on
|
|
these CPUs. Some algos may crash the miner with an invalid instruction.
|
|
Users are recommended to use an unoptimized miner such as cpuminer-multi.
|
|
Changes in v3.8.4 may have improved compatibility with some of these CPUs.
