I released Nexus sp-mod #6 with a reverted celeron cpu fix.

Release #6 works on small chunks of hashes like in #3, so the performance is down abit, but faster block finding. (works best when the diff is small)
This version use more CPU, so if you have a fast CPU you get more hash..
I already found a block with 300MHASH, so it seems to work good..

I have found blocks with both release #4 and release #5. and it works on the celeron. #5 has been out 3 weeks, and noone have complained but you.

In release #6 I will add gpu selection. so you can split into 6 seperate windows processes.

OK, I appreciate your feedback and thanks for trying to help out.

I know that there are many others in the Nexus Slack with the same problem on #5. Most people have stopped using #5 and have gone back to #3 or Majoh.

Just wanted to make you aware and help you to try and fix it. Any chance you could add the celeron fix to #3? That seemed to find a lot of blocks for me.

As I mentioned earlier, I've been using #3 on a single 1080 and finding ~1-2 blocks a day (Acc = 1 or Acc = 2 etc)

Now with #5 it runs exactly the same but never finds a block. Everything else is the same, no system change or wallet change, just using miner #5.

Problem is #3 won't run properly on celeron.

Here is my output with 6 10 47 - looks fine.



If i use default (remove 6 10 47) it's the same just 1ghs (200mhs lower)

I am running with default intensity like this:

:loop
skminer.exe  127.0.0.1 9325
goto loop


a healthy output looks like this:





Did your output show Acc=0 and REJ=0 in 48 hours? If you get Acc>0 it will take a while until it shows in the wallet and you can spend it.

:Run
skminer.exe 192.168.0.2 9325 6 10 47
goto Run

Try to run in benchmark mode


skminer.exe 192.168.0.2 9325 6 10 47 1

Do you get accepted solutions?

I have cpu verfication of the hash in the benchmarkmode.

The problem is it finds no blocks.

The miner runs fine at 1.2ghs (200mhs per 1080). Runs for hours, height updates perfectly and in sync.

On your version #3 I would find 1-2 blocks per day on my single 1080 gaming rig. Unfortunately I cannot use #3 on my 6 gpu celeron rig as it crashes all the time.

It cannot be right that I haven't found a block on a combined 7 1080s in 48 hours using #5.

Cheers,
Jimmy

Can you show me your batfile please?

:Run
skminer.exe 192.168.0.2 9325 6 10 47

So what is your problem?

Did you add a failover in the batfile

:loop
skminer (...)
timeout 10
goto loop

If the blockchain is ddos'es and the wallet loose connection, the miner will sometimes exit.

OK, thanks for the update.

Do you think I can start with 4 threads whilst I buy more RAM? Should this work?


You don't need to add more ram. You just have to increase the ram in windows. (harddrive ram)

http://www.pcworld.com/article/2840886/if-windows-virtual-memory-is-too-low-you-can-increase-it-but-there-are-trade-offs.html

It's already set to over 18GB.

Do I need to further increase?

I have 8GB or RAM. Apologies if you stated that it needed 16GB (Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere).
It's currently on using 50% of my 8GB. I assume it requires 16GB?

If you have more than 4 cards in the rig, you need 16 GB virtual memory

Are there any minimum system req?

Did you add 16gig of virtual memory?

OK, will try that. I have 1.6 ghs and haven't found a block in 48 hours....

very strange diff is not that high, with the open source version that was way slower, and this current diff i was finding 10 blocks a day

sp you need to check if it work because last tiem i got a reject with your build

At the moment none of your miners work reliably for me.
