Also, I would turn off all the updates on windows if you are mining windows 10.

I do have afterburner, not using it at the moment.  Bat file is very simple, but it worked for a long time previously so I don't think that is the issue.


Here is the bat, obviously I took out the usernames and whatnot:


EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool coinotron.com:3344 -ewal user.worker -esm 2 -epsw password -allpools 1 

-cclock 1250 -mclock 1850

trying putting that into the .bat file without awesome miner on. I know it may not seem like the issue but this saved me before.

also before it freezes does is there a pop up in the bottom left corner saying AMD setting have been restored to default?

I might murder my rig...

I cannot figured out what is wrong with my rig. Everything was working great for two months and now nothing. Not one of my cards will hash, everytime claymore starts it goes to 0 mh/s then freezes. Meaning, my whole system freezes up and I have to hard reset. When isolating the GPUs this still occurs.  Does not matter if I have one running or all 6.  I am ready to shoot this thing.

I suspect that is it my motherboard or power supply. None of my cards will work on this rig, but they work without issue on other systems.

Claymore will run for no longer than 30 seconds until the entire system freezes.  When I restart my system after the hard reset I have a notification of, "Application has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware."
.

System Info:
-6x MSI RX 570 Armor 4Gb
-6x Victony PCIE x16 Risers.
-1x 128Gb SSD w/ windows 10
-1x 4Gb DDR4 RAM
-1x BioStar TB-250 BTC 6 PCIe
-1X EVGA SuperNOVA 1000W 80+Gold -
1X Intel BX80662G4400
-Running Windows 10
-Running Claymore miner 11.5, ETH only



What I have attempted:
-DDU
-Clean install of the driver
-Pixel Patcher
-Loaded each card up one by one
-Tested the risers
-Reinstalled Windows 10
-This: https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/application-blocked-accessing-graphics-hardware-error-windows-10-solved/
-FUCKING EVERYTHING

Any ideas?

There may be a problem in your windows OS or power cords connected from the PSU to cards will be the reason for it buddy. Please choose the right os which is specially meant for mining alone. If you use the general windows OS with the claymore means you will find these kind of issue.
Check and restart after 15 minutes whenever you find the issue on your mining rig.
Sometime changing the OS only will give the result for this issue. Please try it and let me know.

Can you try the following, use OverdriveNTool and under volt your cards just a little bit, let say 900mV and report back. If you can mine with this then you might have an PSU issue

how are you overclocking the cards?
I had this problem when switching algos and editing inside the .bat file. If you are overclocking in the  .bat file then mess with the occlock and mclock

Not overclocking at all as of this moment.  Just trying to get things up and running right now.  Everything is at stock settings.

Do you have afterburner?

can you copy your .bat file on here without your address of course.

Have you tried using one GPU directly plugged PCI-e x16 slot on the board, then fire up miner?

I suspect that is it my motherboard or power supply.


If the above setup runs successfully, you either have a bad riser or power supply issue

-snip-

So I attempted to put one of cards on the PCI-e 16x slot, and it worked fine.  Hashed without issue.  However, I do not believe it is the riser.  I have swapped out MULTIPLE risers and still had the same issue.  So you think it is the power supple then??

Then you can add one more card using a riser, just to make sure what the issue is. If with one card directly plugging to PCIe 16x plus one other card using a riser was fine, then add one more card.

I have not tried that. I will do so shortly and report back.

I upgraded my rigs from Win7 to Win 10 not long ago and had an array of problems to resolve to get mining going.
I suspect your Win 10 is preventing Claymore miner from starting up.  Great help is not far away, however,
I for one snatched up a few tips from this site https://mining.help/
In particular, I ran the script descriped under section 4.2 WINDOWS 10 REGISTRY TWEAKS FOR MINING
This is a bat script that stops parts of Win 10 to interfere with your mining.   For example it turns off Windows Defender so it
doesn't stop miner programs


Hi,

Thanks for the response.  Windows defender is completely disabled through the registry.

check your drive integrity.. have you tried reformatting and reinstalling?

cant hurt to burn like ethos to a usb stick and boot it to rule out any hardware issues.

dont connect your risers with sata or sata to molex/6pin adapters...it can work well for some time, but usually ends up like this
connect them directly from your psu with molex or 6pin and not more than 2 risers/line

Risers have always been connected correctly.

Are you getting error message in claymore "No GPU detected" ?

No claymore detects all cards without issue.

Have you tried hashing with half of your cards? At least three cards.
In the new Windows 10, have you increase virtual memory?
Also, this could be powering issue, hows you powering your GPUs and risers (power scheme)? By the way.

How about GPUs temperature?
Bad risers also can be causing this kind of issue, but you said all of the risers was fine.
Don't forget to make sure you have to set your mobo's bios correctly.
