@3Dfilament
thank you for posting your 7950 settings!
works better for me

Feathercoin, a newly created alt coin, a Crypto Currency, that uses the scrypt algorithm for mining and transaction confirmation, (and is quite fast), which will ultimately mine out 4 times as many coins as litecoin ... can be mined with tacotime's GUIMiner.

Tacotime, perhaps you might consider looking into the finer nuances of mining this feathercoin with your good code, FC, which is exhibiting a high degree of affirmative Crypto Currency community adoptive chararacteristics ... 'jus sayin' ;-)

ok, but can i have guiminer and guiminer scrypt instaled at one comupter?
does it cause some porblem? or they can work together without issues?

Use GUIMiner for BTC, PPC, TRC, FRC, and other sha-256 based coins.

Use GUIMiner-Scrypt for LTC, NVC, and FC.

I can at least confirm that it works on LTC and FC.

thanks for answer..
so if i want to mine other crypto, can i install normal guiminer?
isnt it problem to have 2 guiminers installed at one computer ?

To be slightly more helpful than NO.  There is the original GUIminer for most other coins. This is strictly for coins that use the scrypt algo. Those only being LTC at this point.

NO

is possible to use this script for mining other crypto? like ppc?

Update will be coming later this week, expect CUDA miner support and a few bug fixes.

SOLVED!

I was using two risers to get more length, it didn't like that.

I cant run GUIMiner. This is what i get:


And this is log file:

taco, are you planning to update the package with cgminer v3 ?

===============================



===============================

This is one of my everyday in use workstations, I have an additional Nvidia card in the box which I use as the working monitor feed, no dummy plug on the 7950.

No overclocking the 7950, fans gentle, card warm of course, but running easy.

Rock solid hashing rate with hardly any variance, a stales rate I want to improve, but averages about 3%. I'm in the U.S., Coinotron is in Poland.

THANK YOU tacotime, good code, running very, very well. I look forward to any modifications or improvements you might create, looks like your Alpha is a strong Beta, :-)

I will be building a few rigs this month, 3 card rigs, and I'll be using your software on those, thanks.

Perhaps a feathercoin GUIMiner next, FC seems to be coming along and scrypt, well, that's going to be a popular structure for alt coins as the BFL and the Avalons are hitting the pools, sucks, but that's life.

Thank you so much!

Now I'm running into a problem where I get a blue screed of death when i launch it.

Here is the log. I have absolutely no idea what any of this means.

Anyone know how to set stratum up with this program?

How does stratum work? My cgminer ports are supposed to be the pools or what? Not sure but i can't figure it out. Is there a noob step by step guide out there?

check %appdata% Poclbm and remove the ini
if it dont work
update your driver "aticaldd.dll"
try the latest catalyst 13.3 beta !

same bios on all machines? motherboard and grafic?

I am offering a 5 litecoin donation or equal in bitcoin to anyone who can help me figure this out

I am trying to set up a few mining rigs with 4x6870s (sapphire) and 2x 6860x2 (Visiontek) and am having some issues. On the first computer I set up I was having trouble getting windows to recognize the cards but that I can figure out as its probably something simple, but the main problem is

On the other computer once I tell GuiMiner- Scrypt Alpha to start mining with more than 4 cards it tells me I have an error and it needs to close. It doesn't close and keeps mining with the 4 cards that have started but will be in an internal deadlock saying its starting or connecting but never will. I dont know why the first computer would allow me to miner with more than 4 gpus but has other errors and this one wont let me mine with more than four

I have have 4 rigs all being built and have alot riding on this.

Specs: Mobo Gigabyte UD5 990FXx3, UD7x1
CPU- AMD 145 singlex2, Dual core, and X640
GPU - 16x sapphire 6870, 8x visiontek 6870x2
PSU - Coolmax 1600w, 3xkingin 1000w, OCZ 1250w, Coolermaster 800w, Diablotek 600w
RAM- 16GB Corsair Dominator 1866, 3x8gb Gskill 1600
Windows 7

I am a previous bitcoin miner and have had many systems with more than 4 gpus. And the big thing is on one computer I was mining with more than 4 gpus for a while but now on my other ones I am having issues.

Having a very strange and frustrating problem with GUIMiner:

I cannot get any of my cards to connect to any pool. As far as I can tell, everything is put in right - pool name, user name, pass, settings, ect, but I get a constant "Connecting" message that never resolves, even after ~10 minutes.

I have another rig with the EXACT same setup, but no errors whatsoever. I tried deleting GUIMiner and re-extracting everything, then starting up a test miner, but no luck. Nothing I do seems to work. It makes no sense. Why would this be happening? What could I do to fix this or run some tests? The console tells me nothing other than that it starts, and is listening, but never updates with errors, or anything.
