WHY on earth you don't try it yourself, you have a 1070, you just need to install windows 10 to see if it fix neos also, it's in your interest to do it...

win 7 and 8 are most likely fucked, but all the other algo should work good on win 10 too, so no reason to live in the past

So someone has already tested this and it works? Will there be a update for W7/8 or are they SOL? Does this also pertain to other memory hard algos, such as NeoS?

I know from a reliable source that a driver update will increase page size to 2MB on Win10 and this will fix the issue, just like it works on Linux. It is on the way.

Amph doesn't know what he's talking about. He doesn't have a 1070 or any proof that anything works the way he's saying or it will be fixed.

it should fix it for etheruem and pascal, since we are all waiting for wddm to kick in, and they may be there already you can try with the last driver version, it's a driver problem, nothing can be done via mining software

Will just upgrading to windows 10 make it work? Or what exactly is the "fix already"? Dload links for drivers/fix?

Crying? You sir are crying about people using Win'doze'. Ethminer works natively in Windows. You should've seen people freaking out about SP asking people to run his miner in wine... even though it gets the same performance it would otherwise.

1. I run all my windows machines in headless mode.
2. It's not any more stable then a properly running Windows machine.
3. Time is money and having to google each and every variable because in order to do anything in Nix you have to know exactly the right command to use is a huge waste of time and money. I'm not going to employ someone to run a OS either. There is a reason Nix is relegated to doing background infrastructure where they actually employ people to use it.
3a. A lot of software isn't even made for nix. OCing is a huge PITA in nix in addition to monitoring the hardware outside of custom built packages that you just install and use, but have relatively little way of changing outside of programming the OS yourself (another huge waste of time and money).
4. To do what that I can't do right now? Recompile kernel and waste a bunch of time? Nix is a hobby OS or it's something you do as a job, it's not designed for the majority of people.


Don't push your elitist snob attitude while shoveling 'nix is better' crap. That's like people saying you don't get viruses on nix either... just like with Macs.  Nix is a waste of time and resources for the majority of people, which is why almost everyone who is mining is running WinDoze. If it was outright better people would switch.

Believe it or not, some people have used WinDoze and Nix... and can make informed opinions on the matter.

But I get better hashrate  on Windows :d

then stop crying and port the windows miner to actually drivers and hardware !

Linux is the better plattform for mining !
1. could be installed in headless mode, so that there isn't used any GPU Power for anything else then mining
2. more stable to use
3. free to use without any license costs
4. fully control over the hole system

Considering how much a handful of you kids kick and scream when stuff isn't released for Nix... I'm not to certain about that. Sorry that you have to witness a bug on Windows which pretty much everyone uses.

And no, using nix isn't a 'fix', just like reinstalling everytime something is broken isn't a fix either.

Link for download this driver modded ? . I dont have capacity for compiling .

350.12 with a modded INF file to make Windows think it's a 960. Then use the 1.1.7 CUDA 6.5 build.

Why my gtx 950 only 4 mh/s on win 10 last update 64 bit ?

problem is driver ? i dont remember actual version .

Which is the best driver nvidia gtx 950 for nicehash hashimoto dagger on win 10 64 bit ? .

Thanks .

use windows , but use windows 10, there may be a fix already

also linux you need to use the server version not desktop, it give you more perf...

Switched over to Linux, happened once there already as well, so not Windows related either. Testing to see if less OC will affect it.

Dual boot is your solution.

Then don't count on a "fix" for 15 years of driver bullshit caused by vendors with no
clue what platform them need to support in what-ever language Micro$oft tells them they have to use next.

BalmerScript? Gates++? who knows?

Brilliant! This is my main PC and gaming rig. I'm going to be using windows.

No, the miner code is in geth is like 3 paragraphs - super simple.

Parity is Rust, which you can argue is more efficient than Go (geth).
That's what they are probably saying.

We'll see - I built a test instance of parity about a month ago and wasn't impress enough to switch from geth.
It's supposed to be thinner, but, I remember is stayed above 90% CPU for the entire test period.
I wasn't even mining, just syncing the blockchain. I never got it to settle enough to test.

Hey Clintar,
Yep - you and I have been thru this bullshit.
What you're saying is accurate according to my observations too.

NiceHash is requiring pools to track a miner unique id with a 2-byte token they are calling "extranonce".
They also have an ETH pool somebody wrote in dotnet, which made me giggle.

Anyway, until we have a consensus, the shitshow will continue.
