Thanks N8!
No worries, thanks to mc_lovin, I believe it's his site.
yup!  and we just upgraded our server, instead of 100 kb/s speeds, one can now get 1.5 mb/s speeds Smiley

edit: check out the link now!  I put anchors on every post for easy navigation from the OP.

Yes it's down. I was looking for another img to burn myself.

At the risk of talking down to you... have you uncommented the relevant lines in bamt.conf? You need to remove the beginning '#' on any line that you want to take effect. And of course, remove noOC from blah/blah/ACTIVE if you put it in there to test the cards.

This was it! Thanks so much. And, if that is in one of the docs I must have missed it so I apologize for that. Thanks for the advice on the clocks too! Thanks everyone that helped aswell!

I'd love to, but like I said, changing the clocks in the bamt.conf file don't change the clocks that the system is mining at.

Ah... bamt.conf is YAML.  Spacing/indentation is important.  Mess up the spacing and the conf settings aren't used. Use space bar, not tab.
Post your bamt.conf on pastebin and provide the link here.

It runs. Just not well. I get about 320mh/s per core. But I'm sure I can get more out of them with less power since the memory is running at 1000mhz.

That sounds about right for stock settings (I get 321 or 322 so neener neener). If you can get the memclock down to 300 MHz successfully that'll get you 327ish and less heat and power consumption (actually not sure how much power you save, but less heat is always good). At 800/300 they can do 369 MH/s.

I've seen you want to run the cards at 875/300/1.075. Ouch! I'm not sure it's possible to set the voltage above 1.05 in BAMT. If I were you, I'd leave them at 725/1000/1.05 for a day or two. Then gradually reduce the memclocks by 100 MHz at a time until you get to 300 MHz, leaving them for a few hours or a day at each intermediate setting to check they're happy. Then once you're at 725/300/1.05, bump up the engine clock similarly but in increments of 5 or 10 MHz until you get to 800 (or possibly 810 if they can take it... not in my experience)

Of course all that assumes you actually can set the clocks at all. Have you tried running atiweak? Do the following on a command line:

atitweak -A0 -P2 -m900

Then check with gpumon and/or the web interface, that the memclock has been set properly. If it hasn't then something's very wrong.

I'd try 775/1000 first.

Currently they are stuck at 725/1000 @ 1.05v. I would like to run them at 875/300 @ 1.075v.

does it run fine not OC'd?

copy the noOC file into ACTIVE from CONTROL

It runs. Just not well. I get about 320mh/s per core. But I'm sure I can get more out of them with less power since the memory is running at 1000mhz.

change the clocks in small amounts from stock.

What are the exact clocks you are running?

I just started using this (it's great) but I can't seem to get the system to run with the clocks I have set in the bamt.conf file. Also there is no file in the /BAMT/CONTROL/ACTIVE/ which people had said to check.

If it matters I am running 2 5970s (only using 3 GPUs as one is bad).

Thanks
