Python OpenCL miner problem with ATI Stream 2.1

To answer my own question:

Apparently there is a problem when you use the ATI Stream SDK 2.2 and just copy over the atiocl.dll from version 2.1

What works like a charm though is this:

  • Install ATI Stream SDK 2.1
    poclbm won't detect OpenCL for me then
  • Replace c:\windows\system32\OpenCL.dll (32bit) with the file from ATI Stream SDK 2.2 (which is OpenCL 1.1)

Then I can mine quite a bit faster with Catalyst 10.10 installed.

HI,

I had ATI Stream SDK 2.2 install with Catalyst 10.10 on a 5870

everything was fine, except for some dropouts to about 8 MH from time to time.
So I tried SDK 2.1 which includes OpenCL.dll Version 1.0

Result:
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "poclbm.py", line 3, in
  File "pyopencl\__init__.pyo", line 3, in
  File "pyopencl\_cl.pyo", line 12, in
  File "pyopencl\_cl.pyo", line 10, in __load
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.
When I try the newer OpenCL.dll 1.1 from SDK 2.2 it works but I cannot mine because atiocl.dll from SDK 2.1 seems to be incompatible.

Here are the CAPS, both versions work fine in other applications (such as GPU Caps Viewer and its demos)

    • Please help? or is this combination not possible? Can someone notify m0mchil of this thread (newbie restrictions)? Never mind, after posting this I can message him.
