Got Windows mining working (built 0.11.0 binary link here)!
Using Arhag's guide to cross compiling Steem to Windows I managed to produce a working Steemd.exe and CLI_wallet.exe! Its hashing right now on my Windows 10 PC.
You can get the binary's here:
https://github.com/vonkoda/steembuilds/blob/master/release/0.11.0/0.11.0.zip
Get the download of Blockchain here (not my link):
http://46.101.158.30/ (from this thread)
And start Steamd with --replay

tysm !have been waiting for this
still getting the same errors. I can't get it to work.
wow hash rate on this version so low, around 1 - 4000hps for core i7 5820k -.-
nvm it went up to 40k now
What errors exactly? Did you try deleting the Config.ini and starting again? Also make sure you get the newest Blockchain and manually put it in the blockchain folder (and start steamd with --replay)
Im at about 31-32k on a I5 4690k @ 4.5Ghz, so that seems about right.
thanks. forgot to start with replay.
hi man, did u get any POW yet, i tried 2 days with ubuntu and get nothing
It works! Confirmed!! Just replace the cli-wallet.exe and steemd.exe over the original ones, download the new blockchain and run steemd.exe --replay. For me it worked!
Cool... I finally got the mining to work. This is all new to me.
So how do we monitor the results?
I am getting this error while starting cli_wallet.exe.
Thanks for this ...hasn't been working for me previously but will try this method and let you know the results...
Start steamd with this appended to the command: --rpc-endpoint "127.0.0.1:8090"
Depends how you created the account you are using to mine. If its your SteemIt account and you are using your private key, you would check it here:

If you setup a new account via CLI_wallet, then it wont actually activate on Steamd.com until it finds a POW, which could take ages.
Just replying to my own post, I noticed twice now that it mines for hours then pauses, no errors but no mining. Can be closed gracefully with CTRL+C.. anyone else have this problem (it could just be something on my PC, its overclocked etc)?
I might try rebuild it today anyhow with the newest version of Boost (1.61), already tried 1.60 and its doesnt execute.
Do you have any Ubuntu 16 - How to Instructions if someone asks?
I built this on Ubuntu 16.04. I run it natively too of course. There are good guides on Steemit on how to build, like this one: https://steemd.com/miner-category/@clayop/steem-miner-setup-in-ubuntu-15
steemd working . why "Mined false" display https://steemd.com/@vita1ico
Thanks so much, looks like I am up and running! :)
Got it working by appending: rpc-endpoint = 127.0.0.1:8090 in the config file. However, after unlocking, the commands don't seem to be working with steemd.exe running.
The help() command threw this:
I think Mined True only appears if you created an account with CLI_Wallet and your miner has successfully found work. I have two accounts and the miner only account shows true and the SteemeIt account shows false (even though its mining too).
Is Steemd itself working?
I am mining at win7 64b and i see the steemd occupies 2GB of RAM!!!!
this should be a memory leak bug!
Also i don't see any steems in my account after 2 days mining at 40K :(
Yeah, Steemd works fine. I get around 13Khps though. 6th gen i5, 940M.

FYI, just built a couple of versions of the new build (0.12.0), will test them out and post a link in the next couple of hours.
As above, new version here:
