Don't use RDP! When doing some folding I discovered severe problems when starting an RDP session.
This might be the reason for your problem.

Teamviewer or Logmein should be fine.

hmm, never seen this problem before. looks like the driver does not see the cards at all. please pm me the -x output. mining and everything works fine? what does catalyst say?
Mining is ok, catalyst I don't install, only driver and OCL. (v11.12 with replacing files to get the same speed with 11.11).

When I connect via RDC, teamviewer or logmein I have the same result.
When I connected directly, but via onboard VC, I have the same result.
When I connect monitor via one of mining VC, clocktweak works fine.

Hi!

I have a problem using ClockTweak:


Win7x64, VideoCards: 3x6930 + 3x6770. All VC connected via risers. I connect to rig via RDC. Try to use TeamViewer, but it shows only black screen.

Just bought the tool, and it didn't done the job.

I have 3x6990 in first box, and 2x6950 flashed to 6970 in the second.
I have power-meters on both boxes.

When I set clocks via ClockTweak it says that it's all ok, and with -o it reports clocks and VOLTAGE which I've requested.
But system power consumption is way higher (30% higher to be precise, 1050W vs 700W), than when I set up clocks using legacy MSI Afterburner.
I carefully monitored power consumption - and it does not change at all, when I change videocard voltage to any value.

Same behavior for both boxes.
OS - Windows 7.

Command line:
clocktweak.exe -c 700 -m 234 -v 925 -a all -y

PS. Needless to say that I almost lost my mining block due to this. 3x6990 on stock voltage draws more than 1000W PSU can give. So for 5 minutes PSU was working quite over-spec.

I added some more warnings to the initial post. Good thing you were watching your system.

please pm me a -x after you set the clocks like above. what is the manufacturer of your cards? what is your driver version?

the posts from crazyblane and madhacker above describe the same problem. still trying to narrow this down.

anyway send me your bitcoin address for a refund if you do not want to use it any more.

I have hacked together my own bitcoin payed download link. For now the price is only BTC 0.01 until I am sure the buy/download system works ok.

You can lay out a program for sharing ClockTweak?

just realized the download link at bitcoinservice is broken, notified them.

infazan, I have sent you a personal message.

:-D

Yes, full speed - my power supply is the limit. Otherwise I would go far higher. But only for those rigs where I don't pay for electricity.

The one I'm running at home comes close to 2,5 MH/W.
Anyway the current behaviour of our banks lead me to the conclusion that something needs to be changed. And this can be done by Bitcoins.
Otherwise I haven't seen / didn't get the correlation between the downfall of Dow Jones and the poor Bitcoin exchange rate. It should be the other way round.

Another test result from my workbench:

3 x 6870 @1000core 300 RAM gives u ~ 305 -310 MHashes/s per card

Cards are beeing recognized. Only fan adjustment is not working.

6870 from Powercolor (900 / 1000 stock clock rates)

Hi Jab! Smiley

thanks for the Info. Are you still running at 1000Mhz? @ 2.x $/BTC undervolting is the new trend  Cry

Fine. Normally it does not take any confirmations but works right away.

Looks like it is working again.  I hit refresh today and the download worked.

Weird it took that long.  Even @ 1 confirm it was still not allowing the download.

Maybe a suggestion to pass on to the site owner's.  If they are relying on confirmations maybe they could change the message to
"payment received waiting for x confirmations" when they have an unconfirmed payment.

As far as the address.  Not worried it is tradehill's address and it isn't my deposit address so I assume they do some account aggregating.

You pay link isn't working.

I used link was prompted to pay 0.2 to ...

I paid 0.2 to ...

Here is the transaction
http://blockexplorer.com/tx/...

Webpage still says to pay 0.2 to ...  Huh

I recommend not publicly posting bitcoin addresses. They can lead to your stash.

Assuming you did the reload as the site says it is probably a problem with bitcoinservice again. I will look into it.

edit: you got pm

Have you checked now?
May be it want to wait atleast one block confirmation, which nowadays take longer to take.

That does suck. Go to 900/775 and you should run a little cooler. I may try playing with my bios this weekend and will let you guys know how it goes. Unfortunately I've also read that booting into Windows is impossible if you lower the clocks on a 6990 too much... I may try just changing the high profile settings in the bios and see if I can still load Windows.
please let us know how it works out

Well, bad news, Lowering the clocks on the performance setting in the bios causes windows blue screen at bootup. I tried the following settings on performance level 3 for master and slave in the bios:
960/330
900/625

Another bit of bad news, it appears the issue exists with 6970s as well. Anything over 125mhz below core and the mem clock is back to default. The temperature diff was a little more subtle but my 6970 was running at 79 degrees with 900/300 core to mem and 76 degrees at 900/775. "ATI Tray Tools" appears to be the only tool that can actually lower my 6970 past the 125mhz barrier. My 6970 runs at around 72 degrees celcius when clocked at 960/330 through ATITT. Unfortunately ATITT can not handle more than 2 GPUs and is a really shitty application
I still wonder if there is the same problem for other brands.

by level 3 you mean level 2 as counted from 0?  did you reduce levels 0 and 1 to be lower than level 2?
