I have the exact problem as reported in this thread (except I have a 6850) but the solution doesn't work for me. Any other ideas?

update:  Hashrate keeps dropping to about 120 then climbs up to 300ish and then up and down

The only conf file I have is an example.conf

Also I wasn't sure what you meant by "CD" to cgminer and type that stuff.  So I made a new Batch file with what you said...not sure if that gives the same effect.  

Anyway it is running...hasn't crashed yet

Hmmmmm

Try the following, use cgminer:

First delete your .conf file in the cgminer folder (back it up somewhere else if you want)

Open cmd, type:   setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

Then press return and close cmd. Then open a fresh cmd, CD to your cgminer folder and then input the following:


cgminer --scrypt -o yourpool -u yourusername -p yourpassword -s 2 --expiry 1 --queue 0 --thread-concurrency 8192 -I 13 -w 256 -g 2

Press return and let me know what happens Smiley

Slight update....I wiped all my drivers and went to reinstall catalyst 13.4 and I got an error when I installed SDK 2.8

AMD APP SDK SamplesFinal Status: Fail
Version of Item: 2.8.1016.5
Size: 130 Mbytes


EDIT:  Wouldn't let me install the SDK samples because there was an old folder in my documents.  I deleted that and now it installed.  Still having my issues.

I guess my real question is, should I uninstall my drivers and go to an older version?  If so which catalyst and sdk drivers are people using successfully?

Hey all,

So I can mine BTC fine, but I want to mine LTC....but I always crash.

I have tried using multiple configurations in guiminer scrypt, reaper, and CGminer.

I have a sapphire 7950.  It came clocked like this:
GPU Clock: 925
Memory Clock: 1250
VDDC: 1250

This card is in a PCI 2.0 X16 express slot
I have 8GB of Ram.

My best success is using the high usage in setting in Guiminer-scrypt....sometimes I can up to 3 hours before it crashes, at about 530khash/sec.

I am using the 13.4 Catalyst Drivers and I think the 2.8 SDK  Whenever I try to reinstall the SDK I get a failure....not sure if that is because I upgraded to 13.4 catalyst.

Any ideas?

I never go over 75 celcius and my PSU is 730W

If I run CGminer...my comp crashes

If I run guiminer scrypt I get stuck on compiling kernal

and if I try reaper I get this: http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/8959/reaperfail.png
