1) I have several computers at my office and I would like to put them to work for BTCs. How should I do it? I mean, can I install a client and provide my login details to it? Each client will receive proper information to work on different crypto? Or all of them will do the same work and I will lose the advantage of multiple computers? What is the proper solution? A kind of concentrator? Clients suggestion?

2) Preferable I want a client for Windows (since all my computers are windows based) and that are able to be called / executed via command line (no graphical interface). This will help a lot to automate the process and waste time going box by box to install and configure it.

3) Also, is there a client with these requirements that allows both CPU and GPU? Preferable a client that is able to find all my CPU cores and GPUs and put them to work. Suggestions?

4) Another very important feature, is there a option to define at this client that it should only use idle time of these computers?

Subtle...

Hi Jedi95,

I'm interested in begin working with BitCoin mining, I have good experience with computers but very few experience with BTC mining and I would be very thankful if you could help. I'm looking for a bitcoin mining application that meet my requirements:

What operating system you use?
I've tried from AMD SDK 2.4 to 2.8 version with the same error.

Windows 7 64 bits.
When you uninstall the AMD SDK, the registry entries are deleted, but the files stay on the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder.

You have to uninstall, and then delete manually the files: amdocl.dll and OpenCL.dll. After that, you can install other AMD SDK.

Damn! You solved my BFI_INT problem! Thanks a lot!
My performance now are a little increased

I think the driver version is not important, but the AMD SDK version is.
For example, I can use the driver 13.3 beta with the AMD SDK version 2.5; and the BFI_INT works.

Sadly it gives me less MHash on a 6770 and I'm thinking to change the whole driver (I don't want to).

BFI_INT option is never supported with the latest Catalyst drivers(12.10 or newer), also with the "old" Radeon 5850? I get "Failed to apply BFI_INT patch to kernel!" error.
Thank you.

Aggghhh!
I keep getting message to setup CFG file!
No idea how to do so!
I see the CFG file, I click to open it and it brings up a blank screen...that's it!
Click the Phoenix2 .exe file again and same message..."Looks like first time running Phoenix. Please edit Phoenix.cfg file". Same thing over and over for two days.
Can someone please help me understand where I'm going wrong?

You have to paste the code. Check the DOC folder, and the "example.cfg" there you can find all the attributes you can use.
For example, in my 6770 I'm using:

[general]
backend = http://USER:PASS@SERVER:PORT

[cl:1:0]
kernel = phatk2
WORKSIZE = 128
AGGRESSION = 6
vectors4 = True

I haven't found guide on how popular the cfg file. I took one of the configurations posted in this topic and modified for me.

thanks kslavik. I tried running it via Slush's proxy server and got a msg saying Phoenix doesnt support Win 64-bit. Any ideas why that could be?

I don't know why it is not working for you. I'm running on Windows 7 Professional with 64bit myself against OzCoin directly. I have 5830 card with 2.5 drivers. I did try to use proxy and it did work too.

I'm getting better hash rate with phoenix2.0 than any other miner - the only problem with phoenix could be on unstable pools. Sometimes it fails to switch back to primary pool from the backup.

Thanks. I'll try again this evening and see if I can get it to work.

Yes it does, it is running in 32bit mode. I'm still running it.

hm, with cgminer I get even less Mhash than Guiminer.

I think phoenix lies. I used it with my 5870s and it gave me stats that were consistently higher than the pools I had them pointing to said. whereas cgminer matches what the pools say.
