it seems to be a common issue. just update sdk, or restrict the miner to one core.

Hi guys, just got all the things for my new mining rig. is a: msi MB, sempron, 4 5830 & 875w PSU.

Installed windows 7 64bits, and catalyst 11-3. Using 1 monitor, and the other cards have dummy plugs.

My problem is that the cpu usage gets really out of control, opening just 1 window spikes it, and while mining cpu usage is 100% all the time!

Please what should i do? use linux? never used it, would have to learn it from the beginning   Embarrassed


Halpz!

Pretty sure that was a bug with 2.1(?), update to 2.4 and it should fix it.
