LOL 8-|Next I'm not an expert but I have been mining, testing, reading and researching just for this post for about a month.There are so many ways to mine crypto-currency it gets super confusing so I will list the easiest ways for a beginner. You can mine in your browser, with a phone (not iphones they only have one cpu and most no gpu's), tablet, laptop, desktop... Will you make any money? Well probably not unless you have free electricity. If you have solar and your electric company doesn't steal your kwh's (SCE says 500kwh's per month but the solar company says 1500 to 1600kwh's per month) you can mine a few hours a day for free.Next you want to mine in LARGE mining pools. Working as a group you have a much chance of finding and completing jobs! One of the reasons I really like Minergate XMR Monero Pool can be as high as 74,000 miners!I will start with the easiest GUI application... less

CPU's can mine but unless you have a very fast one it will take a year to make $10. :)All the cards have a 100 MHz overclock on memory only. There wasn't enough gain going above 100 MHz to be worthkilling the video cards. (you will see a slight gain at +50MHZ on the clock and 125 to 150MHZ on memory) I ran each coin for 10 minutes to see an average speed. Of course the speedsare always changing up and down. So I went with the lowest average speed.First thing I learned was buying 1080's or 1080 TI's is just a huge waste of money. Unless you really just don't have the space. The best hash for the cash are the EVGA 1060's you get about 20 MH/s on Ethereum, 1080 SC 23, 1080 TI 28 to 30. So for $340 you get 20 to 21 (using the GUI) for $700 to $1,000 you get 23, for $1,100 to $1,400 you get 28!Three EVGA GTX 1060's get 60 to 63 MH/s for $1,020 (You will make about... less

I'm no longer doing any Apple Personal Computers (PC's).For those that don't know, Remote Repair is when someone else takes control of your computer and repairs it. It's not "The Outer Limits." They don't have complete control. lol :) Doing remote repair can be very fast! Something that may takes you hours or even days, may only take a geek a few minutes. I've tried lots of programs, most of which are just not very good. :( If enabled, Window's own built-in Remote Desktop, can be hacked and in just a few minutes, anyone can take total control of your computer and/or web cam. There is Log Me In, Join Me and so on. Again, just more hacker playgrounds using what's called Peer to Peer connections. Anything on the remote computer can infect your computer.

FIRST Dump the UEFI boot & Secure boot, boot legacy, set your sata drives to RAID but don't create a raid partition. If you're using a single drive create one NTFS partion on the back of the drive. Install Windows 8, 8.junk or 10 on the front of the drive (IN THE FREE SPACE) it will make both of it's partitions (or three for Windows 10). 100 to 200meg system partition & the windows operating system. After Windows is installed delete the NTFS partition you created on the back of the drive. Install EASY BCD, boot to a Linux CD or DVD. Tell it to use the free space on the back of the drive (It will make all necessary partitions. I did make mine manually so I could have a smaller swap file partition) By default it will load the Linux boot loader, if windows still boots you're done!
