Running a Nicehash AMD legacy miner on a rig with four RX 580s.

Every night between 2 and 4 AM something happens to the rig where it loses it's connection and stops mining. When this happens it can no longer be remotely accessed and requires a physical power cycle to get running again. Makes it a real bitch when you're 400 miles away from the machine.

Any idea what the problem may be? The log file says:

"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:4000"

OK fine it can't connect whatever, but why would that knock the whole computer system offline requiring a restart?

Go to setting your Nicehash :
1. choose a tab advanced
2. you can looking Api Bind port pool start (to the right of the third column in second). change of value to 5000

The default windows update time is 3am, might be worth to check that as it might try to install latest drivers and fails
