How to ask for troubleshooting help V2
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/264823-31-troubleshooting#t1934282
I apologize for troubling you fellow's
I am still searching for a solution.
This is what is happening. The miner performs fantastic with 4 cards but when I add a fifth card only 3 cards are running. The 2 cards that are not mining show up in the device manager with code 12 - not enough free resources.
This rig consists of the following -
CPU G4400 Skylake 1151
Biostar TB 250
4 gb RAM
4 x MSI 1070 8gb Armor , 1 x MSI 1070 gaming 8gb (all on powered risers)
EVGA 1000 P2
120 gb SSD
Windows 10 64 bit Pro Version 1703 (just updated)
I ran into a similar problem with RX 570's and never quite figured out the driver patch until I watched Cryptomined's video. By then I had already switched over to ethOS. Which by the way runs fantastic. To bad there is no support for Nvidia with it. I have 4 rigs running that presently. Rig5 is the first Nvidia rig and today is the first time I have had more than 4 cards.
If someone could point me to a link or thread or anything I would really appreciate it.
TIA
I think your PSU is too thin on power.
(5 gpu *150w)+(5risers*25w)+100w for the rest= 975w at 82% performance = 1150w.@ the wall.
Thanks for the response.
I swapped out a 1300 from a different rig. I am getting the same result. The four card system is drawing 628 according to a killawatt.
I have searched just about everything I can think of. I haven't even found anyone else having the same problem.
This error won't be related to power or available power, it is most likely due a shortage of PCIe lanes. Are all of your PCIe connectors set to 1.0 or 2.0 in the bios?
How can I affect the PCIe lanes on a Biostar tb 250?
At the start of the day PCI-e's were set to automatic and were working fine. They are now set to gen 2. That has had no effect on the system. I just changed miner mode to disabled. No effect 3 out of 5 work. Take one off, 4 out 4. I have swapped out one of the armor's for the gaming and 4 out of 4. I replaced the riser on the new card (gaming). same thing 3 of 5 , 4 of 4.
Thanks again.
