      Hi,
      Do you by any chance have a guide on how to setup a Gekkoscience Compac F miner into a Windows PC system?
      Thank you

      Day 2 and my Mars Lander unit is still not working after doing some upgrades to fix it. It now displays the I.P address but that is all. It appears that Bitcoin Merch has refused to contact me to resolve, replace or refund me. My suggestion now is stay as far away from Bitcoin Merch as you can. Lots of reputable mining companies out there.
