any possibility to run this software under 64 bit operative system ? like win server 2003
It's running fine with Win 7 64Bit, it shouldn't be a problem running it with Server 2003.

The 4wayminer screensaver seems to be working, giving me about 4100khash/s on
my 2.9Mhz AMD dual core cpu. Ive got a Radeon4200 that seems to be openCL
capable, and Ive got version 1.3 of the latest updates for it, but the openCL
miner which did not work at all before, after the updates, works for a few seconds
and then crashes. The GPU options settings for both screensavers would not
accept input before, and now do, what sort of options should I be trying in the
GPU section? aggression, gpu, threads, etc.
I really want to know. If you'd rather email me, Im [email protected]
And if anyone wants to be kind and generous enough to give me my first
bitcoin dollar(or a few) it's 1KASaeM4cLYQnrY1Qyz28fr3pj9hx1TPWx
I also think my ATI RADEON 4200 is capable of SSE2, whatever that is, and Ive
heard there is some way to use this to make mining even faster.
And yes, I am BitCoin clueless. But if you have a website you want to add bitcoin
to Id say www.bitp.it is the place to go. I have the code on my website, (you do read, right?)

TUESDAY JUNE 14TH and Ill let you know if it has any effect.
And I do my pool mining at bitcoin.cz - is this the best pool for an occasional screensaver miner?
I dont really feel guilty of money laundering, yet I still get an illicit thrill. Am I crazy or what?

Got rcpminer-cuda.exe working fine on one machine (from the extracted folder on my desktop surprisingly).
Tried the same set-up on another machine and I was getting an error so I moved the files under C:\Windows\system32 to alleviate any PATH issues and now I get the following System Error from rcpminer-cuda.exe:
"The program can't start because curllib.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
Well... I see curllib.dll in the extracted folder, and I see it in C:\Windows\system32.
Also, I didn't really *install* the software - just extracted the ZIP. Seems like it'd be pointless to do that again.
Did a search in the forums and didn't see any curllib.dll issues, and seems odd that everything worked fine on my other system.
Both are running Windows 7 64-bit with Nvidia GPUs.

hi all, as a complete newby it all seems very complicated and i'm more confused now than i was when i first started 
I understand i need a miner to mine with and have to have a wallet for the coins but i can't figure out how to get the miner to work. I've downloaded the file for the miner but can't get my head around what to do with it. Do I have to build it? or does it come already built and is ready to use? Is there an idiots guide somewhere that i can follow? There were basic instructions of some sort with the download but i just don't understand it.
Any info. or guidance anybody can give me would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

OK, next question (and I'm sure I'll be kicking myself when I get an answer, because it can't be particularly complicated): how do I get the miner running on two GPUs? I'm working on a remote machine over SSH, and it sees two cards (and can select either one), but there doesn't seem to be an option to select 'both'.
[Edit] By the lack of response, I guess two separate instances is the only option, then?

I'm having some trouble compiling on a remote system; the build gets as far as the linker step without problems, but then gives an error "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcudart". I've already had to add the boost path to LIBRARY_PATH to prevent a previous linker error, but adding the CUDA lib64 path to either LIBRARY_PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't seem to help (the latter does nothing, the former goes back to giving the same boost linker error).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
[Edit] Problem solved - just added -L/usr/local/cuda-2.3/lib64 to Link.txt in ./cmake-rpcminer/CMakeFiles/rpcminer.dir

i do have a pretty decent pc at work (iQ9300 quadcore).
i am, however, behind a firewall, so the bitcoin client connected via a SOCKS4 proxy.
so i have realized that it's no use cpu-mining on my own... so i'd like to get in on some pool mining since the thing basically just sits there all day.
can someone just "real quick" give me a command line that would invoke the CPU-miner with my (potential http://mining.bitcoin.cz/ account)? It'd be much appreciated. Since I do not currently OWN any BTCs, I can't pledge one.
I will, however, give my first 0.1 BTC to the bitcoinfaucet, if someone can make this work for me.
thanks in advance!

Im new to mining, have just signed up to slush's bitcoin pooled mining and downloaded puddinpops miner software. on bpm it says i now need to 'run my miner and connect it to this url http://mining.bitcoin.cz:8332'... how do i run the miner and how do i connect it to that url?
thanks for any replies
thanks for any replies
I run this on a Nvidia GT240 on Windows 7 and about 8/10 times i close the miner I get a bluescreen error (that I can't see because the display output dies) ...
I just discovered this miner a few days ago and it worked perfectly, without any setup! Used the GUIMiner. Great work! Props from a fellow CUDA developer :-)
Hi,
I have the 0 khash/s problem with ATI HD 5850 4way and cpu are okay. What should their be wrong??

I'm new to all this.

4. Ran make
[..]
4. Ran make
This didnt work. I had to 'make rpcminer' specifically and only, or I got errors. But doing this ONLY, worked. I got an rpcminer binary in the cmake-rpcminer dir.
5. Got .cubin files by running
nvcc ../src/cuda/bitcoinminercuda.cu -gencode arch=compute_10,\"code=sm_10,compute_10\" -gencode arch=compute_11,\"code=sm_11,compute_11\" --keep -gencode arch=compute_20,\"code=sm_20,compute_20\" --keep
nvcc ../src/cuda/bitcoinminercuda.cu -gencode arch=compute_10,\"code=sm_10,compute_10\" -gencode arch=compute_11,\"code=sm_11,compute_11\" --keep -gencode arch=compute_20,\"code=sm_20,compute_20\" --keep
This didnt work. I assume you ran it from the cmake-rpcminer dir (where make made the rcpminer binary). I had to forcefully include all the libs and headers, it
coudlnt find them (?!?!).
I ran:
Code:
$ nvcc --verbose -L /usr/lib -I /usr/include,/usr/include/crt --pre-include /usr/include/crt/host_runtime.h -l cudart -l cufft -l curand -l cublas -l cusparse ../src/cuda/bitcoinminercuda.cu -gencode arch=compute_10,\"code=sm_10,compute_10\" -gencode arch=compute_11,\"code=sm_11,compute_11\" --keep -gencode arch=compute_20,\"code=sm_20,compute_20\" --keep
which gives, from -verbose, last couple lines output before fail:
Code:
#$ g++ -m64 -o "a.out" -Wl,--start-group "bitcoinminercuda.o" -L"/usr/lib" -lcudart -lcufft -lcurand -lcublas -lcusparse -Wl,--end-group
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3.4/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In function `_start':

not finding main() is pretty serious, Im guessing
Any help? Thanks. I'll post a detailed summary of how to get this working if you can get me thru the last few steps.
thanx.

Sorry if this has already been answered but it is a very long tread.
Can I use GPU and CPU on the same worker or do I need to run booth cuda and cpu. cuda with -gpu does very little to my cpu usage rate and starting rpcminer-cpu also as a seperate worker does not seem to do anything to the hashrate in cuda. So is running cuda and cpu on 2 different workers for mining.bitcoin.cz a sensible thing or no? Only time I got a negative result to hashrates on gpu was when i set the cpu process to higher priority then the gpu process...

I am running 2600k at 4.8Ghz and getting 7000 khash/s
How is it compared to lets say ATI 5870 ?
In other words, is there a point of mining on CPU ?..

Newbie miner here. I'm having trouble getting -cuda working. Pretty sure that it's now connecting (used to get a CURL 22 error, don't anymore).
I'm running with an Nvidia 280M and Win7 64-Bit Pro.
The matrix location varies before it ends. Sometimes it stops at (128, 128), (128, 256), etc. From what I've read from Nvidia's site there should be 128 CUDA cores for my card, but I'm not finding any solution with/without the gputhread or gpugrid arguments.
Any suggestions?

Please forgive this very stupid question, but how do I actually compile this to run a command line miner under Ubuntu 8.04 ..? I've never compiled directly before, but installed form the repositories.
I'#e extracted the source code, but am struggling with the right command to end up with a runnable CPU miner that I can connect to a pool. Can someone please take pity on a noob and help me with some commands to compile?
