Please help. I've screwed my PC up trying to mine Quark Coins.
I was attempting to follow instructions on the following youtube line:
http://reviewoutlaw.com/how-to-start-mining-quarks-bitcoins-mining-the-simple-guide/The instructions are pretty simple and nothing should have gone wrong in theory. I was able to set up my Quark Wallet and install the mining tool as instructed.
However, after mining for a whole day or two, I had picked up no coins, so I gathered that either I have made a mistake in pasting my Quark Wallet address, or maybe I'm too late in the game and there are no more coins to be had by using a home PC.
My inclination was for the former, as I am visually impaired and use a screen reading software to access my pc and it is highly likely that I could have made a mistake in pasting the address.
Anyway, I was trying to stop my pc from running the mining script but could not do so. And in the process, I ended up changing the mining tool's settings from 'Start when Idle' to Start when not idle'. Or at least that's what I think I have done.
I have since then deleted the whole folder that contained my wallet. But the issue is that every time I try to use my pc, the cpu goes insane. This is especially the case when I am using the internet. I think the mining script is running even though I have deleted all the related folders. And now I can't stop it at all.
Please, please help.
Mind you, my PC runs on Windows 7. Also, I've gone into system config and tried finding a process in startup but could not find anything out of the ordinary.
