I just bought 4GB of RAM and everything is working ok. Thanks guys for all your help
Sucks you had to try everything else first. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Reaper is the memory hog. That program loves it's system RAM...

with 12.8 driver i still get the same error. I hope it's just a RAM issue
so far I tried 13.4 and 13.6 beta. Downloading 12.8
Could be memory or driver. If you install new driver you will need to completely remove old one. ATIMan is one of the few utilities that does a complete job of removing ati drivers thoroughly. AMD uninstall utility does not always work (didn't for me). It leaves orphans. ATIMan does take a long time however and it may be easier to reinstall OS. You can google ATIman for more info.
In a few hours we'll be sure.
Tnx everyone for your help
GSnak I'm on it

Try AMD's driver removal utility and load 12.8.
It's almost definitely the low ram, system overhead + GPU allocation for a memory intensive algo
win 7 64 installed....same problem
gpu 0 failure, disabling
thread 0 being disabled
mabe it's really low RAM?

If you delete all .bin files from your CGMiner directory and type "cgminer --scrypt --benchmark" does it still crash?
completly same

7950's are NOT an alternative crypto currency!
moderator move the thread.
fucksakes.
if you are going to abuse the forums, you deserve to be penalized. this is why you were made to wait 4 hrs and post a bunch before you were given permission. there's some responsibility involved you know.

Did you move from windows 64 machine to a 32 machine?
yes. should I install 64bit?
The problem occurs only on scrypt mining when concurrency is required.
Now I set integrated as main graphics but problem is still there
With win 32 you can't go as high. Start at 8192 and ad 2048 increments. I use 14336 on my windows 32 machine and can get 650khs when litecoin mining. Or you could install 64. Up to you.
downloading 64 right now
Probably best choice.

Dont remember the numbers but 2G ram is not enought for scrypt mining, 4G should be fine... it's somthing like 1.6G per 7950 card.. and 2G isnt enougth for system and one card
Could someone confirm that this is true for cgminer ?
I remember reading somewhere that another mining software (guiminer maybe ?) needs loads of system ram, but I have a 7950 and cgminer use less than 20MB (be it windows 7 64 or linux).
Each "thread" from thread-concurrency use around 128kB of *video* ram at lookup-gap 1 (and you divide this by lookup-gap if it is greater than 1)

If he is using KHS it is an alt currency issue. And this is where the mods have been pushing these type of questions dipshit. Read the forums a little more. And quit spouting off your fat lips.
Dont see anythign about KHS in his post, but i guess we're about to find out.
Here I'll help you....this is from the first paragraph.....
I used to mine with cgminer sapphire 7950 3GB with boost usng scrypt. With the settings below card could get about 650 kH/s
If you don't agree with policy bring it up with John K, because he is the one that has been moving them if they are not bitcoin related.
