First of all, I HEAT MY WORKSPACE WITH ELECTRICITY and I already had the hardware. so this is NO cost litecoin mining.

It's a Crossfire rig and I set GUIMiner for the card, added a mining pool as a host, cut the part after the : off and put it in "port", put my wallet ID as username, and watched ONE card get stressed.

I tried running a second instance of GUIminer from the same directory and crashed something, so I made a new copy of the directory and set it to my second GPU, same as above.

Other than the fact that my cards are now running at full tilt, how do I know it's working?

Guiminer tells you your hash/s. You could look at your wallet though it may take awhile.

I guess I should know it's calculating litecoins instead of bitcoins because I set a litecoin pool server as the host?

Yes the pool selected would determine what type of coins.

Ahah, my pool has a stats page. I'm pushing around 2.5 MH/s peak is that good?

I haven't mined litecoin but apparently it's a lot less that mh/s than bitcoins. 2.5 is great. Is guiminer not telling you mh/s?

Yep, I just wanted to know that the hashes were going where they were supposed to. After that I wanted to know I was getting paid. And after a few hours I started getting paid BIG!
