Somehow I can't get my miner to mine on Alpereum pool

Anyone knows how to join this, my miner just crash everytime it tries to join this pool.

Dwarfpool works fine.

Thanks.

I am now experiencing the 300/300 problem with gpu0, regardless of how I set up my rig or which PCIe slot I use.

Before this afternoon, everything was cruising along fine for the last week with my 3 x MSI rx 470 gaming 4GB rig. Today, I received risers in the mail, and proceeded to make my 3 gpu rig into a 6 gpu rig. I eventually managed to get it to boot up and everything looked like it was going as planned, but gpu0 was stuck at 4.04 mh/s (with the dashboard indicating it was clocked at 300/300), while the rest of the cards performed as expected.

I began working backwards, thinking I had a hardware problem, but after a couple rounds of unplugging what I thought was gpu0, and upon reboot, gpu0 still operating at 4.xx mh/s with the dashboard indicting the card was clocked at 300/300, I started to suspect otherwise. I finally got down to one card, and after several reboots and moving it around to several different PCIe slots, same thing.

I upgraded to the beta 4.11 kernel, and that didn't help.

After all of that, I started reversing the other changes I made to my rig in anticipation of adding additional cards. I purchased an MSI Z170A Gaming M5 mobo because all of the mobos traditionally favored by miners are scarce and, to put it politely, selling at a premium. There are several people who said they were able to get 7 cards running on this board, and they outlined the changes to the BIOS that were necessary. When I undid those changes, my gpu0 went back to working correctly. The changes to the BIOS consisted of the following to the PCI subsystem settings:

PEG0 - Max Link Speed: change from [Auto] to [Gen1]
PEG1 - Max Link Speed: change from [Auto] to [Gen1]
Above 4G Decoding: [Disabled] to [Enabled]

Through process of elimination (i.e., testing my system with only one card installed directly on the mobo), I determined that changing PEG1 - Max Link Speed from [Auto] to [Gen1] is the culprit. As long as I leave that setting on auto, I can change the other two settings as described above and gpu0 functions properly, but as soon as I change the PEG1 setting, gpu0 goes back to 4.xx mh/s and 300/300 on the dashboard.

To be clear, I didn't type all of this up because I expect someone to help me. To the contrary, this is a hobby to me, and I will work through it. However, it seems like the 300/300 problem has reared its ugly head multiple times without a decisive resolution of the underlying cause. I'm just hoping that the info I provided will help tytanick diagnose the problem.
