RE: Mining donations are good to go
If you have no other options, yes - but it is slower.
Without a pool (a large group of users) it'd be pretty much certain never to make a penny, in a pool it can help a fair bit.

pikajedi is running on windows 7 just fine - are you sure you gave it permission to run?
Also, did you have the CPU miner running about 90 minutes ago? I noticed a small amount of activity then but haven't been able to find who it was running it, and your question just now implies it may be you - if so, leave it running overnight and close it when you need to use the computer again.

RE: Mining donations are good to go
It was running it on 2 computers(CPU miner), now just one. I will keep it running there for a while to see if there are any results
I tried the regular on this XP machine, it works fine. With folding@home running it really slows the browser down,tho

RE: Mining donations are good to go
I don't recommend running the CPU miner while doing other stuff - it'll suck every last cycle it can. Perhaps I should put a warning on the page actually.
I can let you know if there's any results from it by the way if you want to give me the IP you're connecting from (because someone else might decide to connect so I can't just assume all the shares from the CPU miner are yours until I get this thing tracking individual users).

RE: Mining donations are good to go
What kind of rates are you getting (khash /khps)?

RE: Mining donations are good to go
Everyone has better hardware than me 
I'm at 17000-ish khps on my desktop and about 30000-ish khps on my laptop
There are some theoretical ways to improve the algorithms a bit, I should look into that more

RE: Mining donations are good to go
Of course, when I get round to it I happen to own 2 PS3s capable of running linux (had one given to me as a gift recently - still on original firmware), one of which has the PS2 emotion engine too, that's a lot of computer.

RE: Mining donations are good to go
Just switched this to a different pool which seems massively more efficient as shown by the lovely dynamic image they offer:
