Hello,

When I open BFGminer.exe it shows me a blank black screen with a floating dot and doesn't ask for any prompts. Is there some configuring I need to do? (running windows 10 64-bit with bfgminer version 5.5.0).
Thanks

Hi. I have the same Problem with same Windows and same Bfgminer Version. Like SaNdMaN4847.
Windows has done some updates. Since that it doesnt work anymore.
I tried different GPU Driver versions (nvidia) but there is just the black DOS Box.
No Errors to follow so i dont understand the problem. Cgminer works in the same System. I need Bfgminer to listen on Stratum ( i mean the --stratum-port Option) to connect my Miners to the chain.

Is there a solution for this issue? I ran into the same problem with Windows 10 and BFGMiner 5.5 64 bit version.
