I just added a 750 Ti to my computer which has 2 x Radeon 7950's in. Unfortunately the second I run cudaminer I get "The application was unable to start correctly (&xc000007b)"

Windows 8.1 and running cgminer 3.7.3 Kalroth edition with the 7950s.

Thanks that works, getting about 260Khash with -i 0 but then teamviewer cuts out and so does cgminer. If I change it to -i 1 then I get about 160Khash and everything else still works but I lose more than 160Khash off cgminer. Maybe its because this rig only has a sempron 145? I've got a spare mobo/cpu which is a 4ghz dual core FM2 chip, would this help?

possibly running with the -H 1 option? that one puts a lot of stress on the CPU. Switch to -H 2 if possible.

Try T15x24 and open a google chrome window with some flashgame.

If that was for me, I got the cpu does not validate.

On a side note it took about 15 times of restarting the bat file to get the card back to 99% gpu load. Even trying the flash thing did not work.
As i saw it is a scrypt coin and with 15x24 i get better results , remove anything exept -H2 -i 0 -T15x24 . Can you  post your actual overclock readings? 290 is good , but for scrypt i get 320 when overclocked.

I am using PrecisionX 4.2.1 and have no idea how to get it to show actual clocks like AfterBurner. I just have the GPU Clock Offset to +105 and Mem Clock Offset to +265. Even when I click on Performance Log it only shows my 670. If I click on my 570ti it stays on the 670 readings. Maybe Precision X isn't made for the 570ti yet. I'll see if I can find an updated version.

actually, if you want to do solo mining, you might want to try the helix coin tomorrow night (at launch time)

To elaborate on the last few posts, when they say a while, it's more along the line of months rather than hours.

Pools exists to reduce the high variance of solo mining. With a high difficulty coin like dogecoin you're very unlikely to find any coins solo.

This is getting about 264khash.  But where are my coins?

You're playing a lottery.  How often do you expect to win the lottery? Wink

Two solutions
a) buy more tickets (i.e. get higher hash rates: create a MEDIUM to BIG size mining operation with AMD consuming industrial amounts of power)
b)  join a lottery pool. You'll win more often, but smaller amounts, as you share the winnings with other users.

solo mining doge, it might take a while before you see one block...
Try to join a pool, they are plenty

Your solo mining. You may not see coins atall
Be patient and wait

I'm trying solo mining for the first time. My test coin is doge. Cudaminer seems to be mining. The screen is scrolling the man khash numbers like it does when I mine with a pool. However, I never see any "yay!" in any of the lines. What does this mean? Am I not successfully getting any coins?

Also, where do I see the coins? Do they just automatically appear in the wallet as if they're deposits? 

I have a GTX670. I've had it mining for about 30 minutes but there has been no change in my wallet balance.

My configuration is

-i 1 -l K7x32  -C 1 -H 1 -o localhost:22555   

This is getting about 264khash.  But where are my coins?

here' my screen:

likely a lack of Visual Studio 2010 SP1 runtime libraries. Scroll back a page or two to get the download links.

You should probably add this in the readme or something...

Hello, I need some help with settings for UTC. My video card is GTX 780ti and my setting are --algo=scrypt-jane:UTC  -l T15x24 -d 0 -i 0 -m 1 -H 2 -C 0. I make only 213kh/s Sad. Any suggestion?

I recommend to use -D -l T, and then watch the numbers as autotune does its job. Maybe you can find a better setting for the T kernel that way.

The higher the N value goes, the smaller the "best" warp counts become. It appears that we run into some performance cliffs in the table determined by autotune, so picking the maximum warp number (x24) is often a bad idea. When I get home I can post my Vertcoin autotune table. It's pretty scary how performance drops with higher warps.

there is however a difference in the memory access method used.

for scrypt I use David Andersen's memory access code with warp shuffles and such
whereas for scrypt-jane I default to a simpler method.

It would be interesting to see if switching to the simpler method also helps with
scrypt:2048 and higher. I will check this tonight.

I've received a bit of an optimization from nVidia engineers for the t and k kernels used in Yacoin. It will add an extra kHash/s to 780, Titan and 780Ti devices for N-factor 14 coins.  I am going to try this tonight, and maybe push an update if I can confirm the gains.

Seems these guys are doing my job now, lol Wink

Yes please!
Please?
Awww please? Cheesy

Im looking forward to the high end maxwell. Nvidia are really trying on the mining game. I am still wondering about the new maxwell, was it true their suppose to be having a processor inside? And a usb? If so I wonder if its possible to perhaps send data instructions to tye onboard processor to tell the gpu what to do, a usb gpu? Removing all pci bandwidth issues?

That would be very interesting. Motherboards would change a lot, and so would cases. It would be a huge benefit to miners aswell. I mean we have already seen manufacturers making their own external gpu enclosures

Why not make them full usb?
All my mining rigd are off now as it doesnt seem anythibg is very profitable anymore (damn you maxcoin for raising my expectations)
I was on the impression that the pcie was "better" than usb (I mean I don't think there are ssd which plug into usb, while there are ssd pluging into pcie)


The idea is that the usb send commands, and the processor in the gpu decodes them, so instead of the cpu doing it and sending it via pci, it would be sent in command form. The onboard would then decode request and cut out the pci lines entirely

well as long as it convers the electricity costs, you still get free heating.
Unless you live in Australia where it's summer/autumn, this might still be very
desirable.
