Hi. A friend of mine have a problem.

When he tries to start miner (all packets on bitcoin updated) ALWAYS get: "Starting..." and nothing happens.

He is register on deepbit, all data is correct, but can´t start to mining, always status is "Starting..."

Any sugesstions???

Thanks

What I don't understand:
I have a 5770 and I can mine while watching HD video, youtube etc.

A friend of mine has a 6950, had the latest GUIMiner running and when he clicked a youtube video he got a hard freeze and had to reboot.

Is there anything one can do?

Get right click on the youtube video screen, and Disable hardware acceleration on the flash player options Grin

I'm new

. Installed this and got it working but my hash seems really low compared to others in this forum (searching for 20 mins). I've got an nvidia 460 and I'm running about 40-50 mhash/s. I see people with this card or a 470 getting well over 100.

Did I do anything wrong? I tried some -v -w flags but it didn't do much. How do I fix this?

Thanks!

the 470 has about 1/3 more stream processors and runs at a much higher clock speed, so it will yield a bunch more hashes.

a single 460 should yield about 50 Mhash/s.

the people reporting 100+ Mhash/s with your card are running two of them.

Thanks compro01!

thanks, "-f 48 .." - "-f 55" range is okay in my case, but im put it into "-f 70"[OS behave safer, w/o mining impact(only about 1.2% drop)].
MyndkryM saw similar behavior with wrong auth data in "e-mail" field[not password], try check you Id/password.

Hello,

I saw a comment earlier that another individual was having problems with GUIMiner connecting to a pool. I am also having this problem...was there a solution that I missed?

So far I have checked my UID and PW settings, and have tried connecting to two different pools (slush's and BTCMine).

I'm not getting any errors, just stuck at Connecting.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated in troubleshooting this.

Thanks in advance.

Wil be great to put support for Phoenix miner too, cose it become anough popular.
Phoenix miner seems to be well supported and flexible.
Plus it have more advanced network code (usefull for users with connection issues).
Best regards.

PS: I am donated twice (summory 2.12 BTC) and will continue that way.

If you're using OpenCL for GPU mining (the default), there are two options for you. The -f flag decreases the minor priority, try a value like -f60 or higher and see if that lets other processes run. If that doesn't give acceptable performance try the -s flag with a value like -s0.01 or higher which forces the miner to sleep in between runs.

Let me know if this works for you or not

is there no way to limit peak saturation of GPU ? [preferably with "10%" step] :/
cuz default uncomfortable in some configurations[miners can't watch video, use videoconferencing, watch youtube and do rest nonsense, usual for people :-] and ability to tweak that upon needs could be cool/handy, IMO :-)

You have idea to add phoneix & phatk, besides poclbm, coz all share same methods.

in poclbm i get 270-300, but in phatk i get 313 Mhash/s

Besides, i added -s flag & miner says starting only & never starts.

dishwara, what you've mentioned has sounded here before...however Kiv is noone's slave, if you guys wanna have a feature implemented why won't you offer a bounty?
Say a 10 btc? hum?

I would be interested in phatk support through GUIMiner as well. Bounty maybe? What do you think Kiv is it possible?

Donated 1btc and will continue to do so each update.

For my account on btcmine.com i have obviously an username and a password. Then i create a new miner profile and there i have a miner nickname and its password.
What of them i have to set in guiminer?

miner nickname and its password.

username: user@miner-name
password: miner-password

Thanks

Unfortunately it's not that easy - the GUI has to understand what the miner is saying, so I have to actually write code for each miner used. It's not possible to just automatically have any miner work.

plz, instead of "Extra Flags" can u make a "Full flags" including the executable, so we can use any minner, not just poclbm, like phoenix one, thanks...

Can anyone tell me why my confirmed reward from mining.bitcoin.cz account does not show up on GUIminer? My balace on GUIminer is 0 but I have confirmed funds in my account.

EDIT: Its ok. I've figured it out. I needed to paste my token in the miner.
