Hi!

I cant get to work the watchdog on eth, if a gpu crash i want to reboot the script or the pc eitherway is fine by me, any help would be gladly appreciate it

Sorry for my engrish

--watchdog exit
When this is used and a card is detected as crashed the miner will exit with exit code 42. If done so a simple bat like it is in 1.24a script might wait for some seconds and just fire on the miner again. Easy as that. But makes only sense on Nvidias, on AMD one either should pick
--watchdog off (this would continue mining on the good cards) or the default --watchdog script - this one will make the miner call an external script, where the user can decide what to do, e.g. do a full reboot (note: in order to make this work the script needs to be able to run in the same credentials the miner had before... so if the script does something the system needs a "sudo" for, you need to start the miner with sudo as well)

Thank you !

So just to continue on my journey and share with the other noobs out there. I have (2) rigs. Each with (12) AMD rx570 8GB cards.

I took the advice and while still on Windows, backed up the current GPU BIOS and then continued to perform the one-step GPU bios mod. It was a lot easier than I had thought it would be. And feel better with the original BIOS on hand if needed.
I used:
GPUZ (to view/read the GPU and also to backup the original BIOS)
PolarisBiosEditor 1.7.5 to load the original BIOS and click the one-step patch. Save as the new modded BIOS.
Saved both to a USB stick.
Then with the high recommendation I moved off Windows and went with HiveOS. I have to say, I really do like the setup. Everything on one screen. And a lot easier to manage. It's even easier to flash the BIOS as I as able to upload the (2) versions of the BIOS, select all the cards and flash. Reboot and away I go. (of course with overclocking settings in place)
I was getting approx 21-22mhs per card. With this new setup I'm currently getting 30mhs - 31.5mhs
So thanks to those that helped. It's nice to get it back up where it was when I was running Claymore previously.

Just noticed something and have an email into HiveOS about this. Am I correct that under the free account I should be 'free' up to (5) workers/rigs?
I've been running off one rig/worker for a week and noticed that it was telling me it was free. But this morning i added the second rig/worker and it's now showing $0.04/day [a day left]

Just need a little help explaining that. I thought that with the (2) workers it would still be free.

and to top it all over, the rig/worker I just added seems to reboot [lolminer reboot] every handful of minutes

Heya.

Figure i mine for a payout at nanopool hence i have some old eth laying there.
So i wanted to lower the payout from standard 0.1 ETH to 0.05 ETH. In the batch file for email adress would it be like on old claymore workername/email adress or some other command.
this pool just have their own miner but i dont want to use that, and no step by step setup for these more popular miners.

%WAL%/%WORKER_NAME%/%EMAIL%

Cheers i figured it out.

Also I think, I have seen the %WAL%.%WORKER_NAME%/%EMAIL%, the first with a point and the other with / , but I don't remember where

is there any oprion to set undervolt for core and mem?

You have to use 3rd Party Apps. In Windows for example MSI Afterburner with the Profile load and in Linux if you use a mining OS it will be very easy to do it.

Hi friends,

Anyone use your Desktop computer for mining?
I use my Desktop computer with 2 470s & 2 570s for mining, and use one of them as my primary display card.
When I use Firefox browzer for browzing, the system sometimes collapses the Firefox due to system resources(e.g. RAMs)

How can I reserve some system resources for my computer daily jobs?
It made me trouble reset the mining computer in order to do normal daily jobs!

Try to run it like start /MIN lolminer.exe.... that will let more resources for what you need :-)

Thank you useful information for me to try! Indeed, I like Lolminer! Grin

I hope it worked

If you want to mine while using the computer at the same time you need to use the onboard video. Most motherboard have a built in DVI connector there. Plug your monitor there. If you don’t have this you can only mine on the other 3 while you are using it.

Also increase your virtual memory in windows to like 16Gb or 24GB if it’s not enough. If this doesn’t work then just disable the GPU that is the main GPU when computer is in use and just reenable it whenever you don’t use the computer. All you do is push 1 key in phoenixminer and claymore to do so.

Thank you your sharing! I would try to increase virtual memory first!

Well 24mhs is not bad however anyone know the power consumption. Because on stock they pull like 250watts, with a stilt bios I think they pulled maybe 200 watts or so. This was around 29mhs a few years back.

So with 24mhs anyone know how low you can put the voltage so it’s stable? If it pulls maybe 175 watts stable then profitability is pretty decent. I mean even at 250 watts now there are still profits to be made since profits are high right now. And in a few weeks profits can be 50% higher if the gas fees go up again.

Wondering if anyone here has an R9 290 (Hawaii) 4GB Videocard? Any idea if you can mine ETH with it or any other coin for that matter.

I got a few of these left and wondering whether to Craiglist it or mine something. I remember these pulled like 200 Watts hashing at 27MH/s so even with that huge power consumption right now it would still pull a nice profit. If its possible I can put it in the x16 pcie 3.0 slot and wondering if I can get that 27MH/s speed back.

If not is there anything else out there that this GPU is capable of mining anymore these days? Thanks

Direct to Mobo with Gen3x16 I have seen in Zombie mode +24Mhs... but you need to be in Linux

IMHO its not for long Sad

With the zombie Mode in Mobo and Gen3x16 it could be until summer :-) you can always make a benchmark to test your configuration to know until which EPOCH it will be avaliable...

I meen 24 Mhs not for long. Each EPoch lower it for 2 Mhs. So , In a month it will be 15 , then 10 , etc....
