neither the link for downloading the x86 or x64 Windows versions are working.

pooler commented 11 years ago

Would you care to mention which links you are referring to?

hrobeers commented 11 years ago

I think he means the corrupt win32 zipfile from here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55038.0

The archive at Sourceforge? It works for me... http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/files/pooler-cpuminer-2.2.3-win32.zip

hrobeers commented 11 years ago

The download works, but have you tried to extract it? I Tried on different machines with both winzip and 7zip.

I get an error that it is not a valid archive.

I wonder if your problem couldn't be caused by the redirects at Sourceforge. What size is the invalid zipfile you get?

hrobeers commented 11 years ago

I can extract the files in linux like you do, but it fails in windows (same zipfile). However, there are no issues extracting the win64 zipfile.

pooler commented 11 years ago

I have asked two Windows users to test the download, and both were able to unzip and run the miner with no problem. Could you please provide a checksum of the zipfile you downloaded? (I think 7-Zip can show CRC32, and one of the testers also mentioned this.)

pooler commented 11 years ago

No response, closing as works for me.
