Funny that every day an equipment disappears of the monitoring on the site .. restarts in another wallet and no name. but nothing happens in ethman. would the platform with bot to select some pool inside the file -epool and changing without restarting the machine? very strange .. I get email from the pool saying that my miner is off but in ethman nothing happened

It's not bad power, that wouldn't cause one card to flake out. It could be a bad riser, cable or the little PCIE chip that plugs into the slot. I've had bad risers that run fine for days or weeks and then all of the sudden cards will drop off. I hate to be obvious, but have you updated the BIOS and tried to set the Gen settings for the slots etc? I have one ASUS board and the rest are ASROCK H110 pro's. The H110's are setup for mining and fired right up, I have 6 10 card rx580 rigs running SMOS. The ASUS board is 8 cards and was kind of a PITA to get running. Had to set everything related to PCIE to Gen1, disable SATA controller, audio controller etc. Finally it has been running for over a week. I read ton's on boards before setting up my 10 card rigs and stayed away from the B250 as it seemed to have overheating issues and just be unstable compared to the H110 or another board. Hell, I paid $129 for my Asus Z270-P and it runs 8 cards...
Thanks for your answer.
In the B250 bios there is a mining mode where everything gets set properly right away (gen1, above 4g decoding). I turned off the audio already but I can try and turn off all the things I don't use.
Tonight I'll do that and also embark on a mission to identify the faulty riser, if any. I don't want to run with 1 risers at a time to identify the faulty one... I guess I'll try removing them 1 by 1 instead even if it might not be as accurate (if I have 2 faulty ones).
Otherwise I already ordered a new 6 pack of risers earlier this week since I have 3 more GPUs on the way.
Make sure you aren't trying to boot with a monitor plugged into one of the mining cards on B250. Also I found that mining mode doesn't really get you exactly where you need to be. You still need to set all your pcie to gen2 enable csm(I think that's what it's called). And make sure to enable onboard video.

Is SMOS down? Getting long login retys and other fucky things happening?

Hi everyone! I have a problem with 12*1060 rig with h110 motherboard. It can work fine for days, but suddenly hashrate falls. For example , from 320 sol to 20 for all cards. The different miner (claymore) don't change the situation. Any idea?

Hi Guys,
I'm writing this post hoping that there is someone who could help me with some answers. I'm new in mining, as you all were in the beginning so I'm still trying to find my place in the huge amount of info.
Well, I've just set up my RIG (6 x XFX RX 470 8gb) and I'm currently trying to understand if the frequencies for memory and gpu shown in the SM console are the stock frequencies of the video card or the values I see there are overclocked by SMOS? It's currently show me 1180/1950/card.
Do you have any info on this matter?

If you have not set any OC values in Simpleminer then yes, they are the stock clocks on the card(s). If you load ATI winflash as well as polaris bis editor, you can save your BIOS and load it into polaris to look around at the stock values.
Hi,
Thx for the answer. The idea is that I didn't use the cards in windows before. Just installed the rig, inserted the usb with simplemining OS and that was it. This is why I was wondering if the frequencies shown in the console are the stock frequencies. I didn't change them, just wanted to know for sure that the OS does not apply any OC at all.
Got it. So yes, stock values are shown that you can tweak with the OC settings in SMOS. Keep in mind that you won't get as good of undervolting results in SMOS VS modding the BIOS. For me atleast the power profile setting in SMOS doesn't change much. Modding the BIOS voltages works great, have to know what you are doing though.

can anyone with asus b250 mining expert share their bios settings with smos?
i have tried many combinations of settings with 9 cards and smos registers each card but mines less tan 4 hashes each card, i have manyhours trying and cant find good answers online

What GPU's are you using, this info would help?
I have the same issue. Currently I have 4x 570 4Gb and 1x 580 8Gb.
I have 2 more cards I did not test with the mobo yet and 3 more on the way, all RX 570/580 4/8Gb.
Otherwise I have a more general question as well:
I had SMOS running in 1 rig on an SDD.
Can I take this SDD and use it to run SMOS on another rig? Or does SMOS udpates itself and becomes dependant to the HW it runs on (just like windows does)?
EDIT: I forgot to say these 5 cards were running fine (28-29Mh/s) on SMOS on a Z170 PC Mate. Now that I switched everything to the B250 mining expert I have this low (and varying) hashrate problem.
I solved my problem. It was quite stupid but you have to know it: don't use the damn 16x PCIe slot!
After I moved the riser from the 16x slot to a 1x it solved all my hashrate issues.
The above solution did not solve all my problems. The hashrate was good for a while but then went back to crap.
I followed the advice on Reddit and filled my PCI slots in the numerical order (I had read elsewhere it did not matter). Now that I did this my rig is mining at the expected hashrate again.
F*** me it's still not stable. It can run stable for like 6 hours and then the hashrates start to go up and down.
Yesterday when I was running with 5 GPU, it went OK with all of them for hours. Then only 1 of the GPU went down to 3-4Mh/s and the others were all fine.
In the evening I added a fan blowing on the little chip that some people say overheat on the B250.
Then I plugged in a 6th GPU and started mining again.. It was stable for a few hours only and then the issues started again. Not just 1 GPU went down to 3-4Mh/s, many did.
Could it be bad risers? Can they they somehow work for a while and then start causing issues? Identifying the bad one would be hard since they all appear to work, at least for some time.
Could it be the power? I currently run this on a good EVGA gold and a not so good Cooler Master (I had to RMA a corsair, that's why). The only other thing I have running on this breaker is a single light and the fan to cool the rig. The wires are a bit old in my basement where my rig is.

Hello everyone! I recently got into mining and 2 days ago I finished setting up my first mining rig (6 RX 470 XFX 8GB on a gigabyte H110-D3A with a intel Pentium Dual-Core 3.3 GHz). I use SMOS with claymore 10.5 and thus far I got twice (once every 24h) an error that makes a lot of hardly readable text rain down my screen (I'll attach vid). Any ideas on why this might happen? What should I do to try correct this? I want to let my rig mine while I am 200km away. This error makes it unresponsive to simplemining dashboard commands (I can't reboot/ restart from it) so I'll have to figure out how to use SRR which seems difficult

I usually get that if A) The motherboards isn't setup properly for mining. Disable as much as you can onboard. Try changing PCIE versions from Auto to Gen1 or Gen 2 and test. B) The GPU's are overclocked or undervolted too much.

Just an idea, but be mindful of your power situation. I have 4 D3's and they will throw errors if I run too many in the same room because the house wiring is weak, there's not enough power for all of them. If it doesn't trip the breakers, they will throw the errors. Another issue could be your power cables. You want a 14 gauge I believe? And you want them short, longer cables lose efficiency per foot.
The fact that 1000 watts powers one rig fine but fails to do so for the others indicates a power sourcing or delivery issue to me. Potential fire hazard. Take care with your other PSU cables as well, I've read they can catch fire sometimes if overloaded. Better safe than sorry.
Another idea could be poor internet connection that causes errors while updating, ip conflicts or data dropping, but that's unlikely.
Lastly, it could be a problem with the OS itself, which also seems unlikely.
Hi, maybe a motherboard problem?
Putting on and off again and again many times the riser connectors may damage ports.
Yesterday I noticed that one of my Pci-Ex ports cause senseless heat problem to GPU.
What are the last errors of OS before rebooting?
Thank you for the substantial inputs!
I solved the problem, actually found the problem. One PCI port in each card is not working. I added the cards one by one and found the slot causing problem. I tried with one gpu on that slot and it is not working. Sometimes it starts to mine with that slot but lasts 5mins or so. Tbh it does seem unlikely to have one slot in two mobo, but maybe I screwed smth during restarts, changing risers etc. Today I am going back to the store, maybe they can replace if the slot was DOA.

@tytanick
Is it possible that you add this miner : https://www.bminer.me/? It runs much better as Dstm not only with better Rates, it use less Power then all other Miners withe better Hash Rates.

Yes they are I know 
Accually the NV and RX image should and will work on most R9 GPUs as well.
I will soon merge this into ONE image.
The reason that i have separate images is to give more clear info that you CANT MIX amd and nvidia in one rig

Can you please add bminer to your SMOS? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annbminer-a-fast-equihashethashcuckaroo29z-miner-for-amdnvidia-gpus-1649-2519271
I have a problem with dstm miner in your SMOS. Using 12 x P106 mining cards, they all work good for about 2-3 hours, after that time, the hashrate is starting to decline from 3700+ Sol/s to 2000 Sol/s for unknown reason. When using ewbf miners, the speed is lower and the machine is restarting more frequently, but the miner stays at 3500+ Sol/s. bminer should be better alternative to both of these miner programs, and I found out that it gives higher performance and also better stability.

I am having the same problem as you..running 12x GTX1060...tried DSTM miner..after 2-5 hours..hashrate drop from 3700 to 2000 sol/s.
EWBF having lower hashrate but somehow stable after running 12 hours...
Developer please help to add in bminer .
