Hello every1.


I'm totaly new to this Cheesy. So I'm mining with my "older" rig that has a AMD 4890 and I'm getting around 95 mhash/s with no flag. On the fifth side of this topic some1 said we should use -v -w128 on a 4890 but that decreases to 87Mhash/s. So do you folks have a better idea?

I'm having some issue... I tried to update my miner, so I deleted my old one, folder and everything included, downloaded the new one, but now when I try to run the application it gives me this:

---------------------------
Errors occurred
---------------------------
See the logfile 'C:\Users\xxxxxxxxx\Downloads\BTC\guiminer\guiminer.exe.log' for details
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

Then the log file has this to say:

ERROR:root:Exception:

I haven't heard of this issue before. There's no particular reason for any GPU to behave differently than the others. A bit more detail might help me or other posters figure it out.

What cards are you running? What pool and what settings? Are you using OpenCL or CUDA?

I have a problem with GUI miner on one of my dedicated rigs
I have four identical cards running, all with identical settings

GPU1 and GPU2 are having connection problems intermittently while GPU3 and 4 are solid.

What would cause this?

I'm having the same issue.

I'm reciving "Connection Problems" error as well.

The thing is it will work on launch then stop and give the error than maybe pick pick up again in 20sec and work for lie 5 sec and the give the error again.

Its like on and off.

It was working great since I got it till today. No clue what is going on.

INFO:

1 GPU (5870) with SDK 2.1

Just got the latest version of the GUI and same stuff is happaning although it went from 360 Mhashes/sec to 402!

OH MY GOD ME TOO!

My guess is that the ATI card doesn't support CUDA and you don't have OpenCL installed. You'll probably have to install OpenCL to mine on an ATI card.

I'm having some issues. I was mining with a 560 Ti using the CUDA miner. I added a ATI 5750 and it wouldn't show. I can't get the miner to show the 5750. Any ideas?

I have the newest Open CL installed. I tried a earlier version and I get an error message that says "The display driver installed on this system does not have OpenCL support for AMD GPUs" I have the AMD driver installed.

Now my 560 Ti isn't showing.  Huh

Ok if I unplug my GTX 560 Ti and put my display on the 5750, the 5750 appears. I can't get both to appear though.

I overlooked that use case - it will prompt for a token if you haven't entered one, but if your token changed
somehow, it won't know to prompt again. I should probably change it either so it prompts again whenever you get a 403, or have a dialog where you can view all your tokens.

am i the only one with this problem or is retrieving balance for the deepbit pool broken or blocked or something?  just kicks a 403 forbidden error when i try it, but mining is working fine.

nevermind, seems my API token changed somehow.

where in the GUI do you enter the API token?  i couldn't find anything and needed to go edit the config file.

I just tried refreshing my balance and it worked perfectly.

Glad you got it working Smiley

For future reference, all guiminer application state is stored in .ini files either in the miner directory or in %APPDATA%\Roaming\poclbm. I don't like the registry so I didn't use any registry keys Smiley

*Sigh*  It's always after you type something up and serialize your thoughts that you think of *one more* thing to try.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Catalyst and everything is peachy.

I like that..keeping it old school unix style (ie with separate conf files) Smiley

How true that is...

running the latest (11.4?) catalyst drivers? Did you have an nVidia card before?

Geek3d's GPU Caps Viewer is a nice tool to figure out if openCL is running or not: http://www.geeks3d.com/20110331/download-gpu-caps-viewer-1-11-1-and-gpu-shark-0-4-4/

Then you'll have to play with your driver installation until you figure the problem out. Apparently openCL is picky about previous driver installations, windows not being up to date, stuff like that. There's also an openCL driver only available from the AMD website, but it should be included with the latest catalyst drivers anyway. If you're trying to run older drivers for whatever reason, you may need to download and install the ATI Stream SDK.

You need to get openCL running.. I spent hours trying to figure it out on my machine and it turns out if you're running windows XP, you need service pack 3 or the openCL drivers won't work. Which OS are you running?
