Title: CGMiner Scrypt Problem Post by: misternoodle on October 02, 2012, 03:54:18 AM I had a 5850 in my machine and was able to mine LTC without any issues. Popped in a 7970 and update my configs and drivers, now I'm getting tons of HW errors displaying.

Since it was originally created for a differnent generation of card that mayyy have been causing your issues.
I've run cgminer on my 7950 before with 'non-normal' --shaders set and it wasn't an issue crashing wise. (just crappy hash rate lol) Title: Re: CGMiner Scrypt Problem Post by: tacotime on October 03, 2012, 04:58:50 PM I posted about the bug in the main thread for the second time: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.msg1242236#msg1242236
Maybe if we complain enough ckolivas will finally fix it Title: Re: CGMiner Scrypt Problem Post by: tacotime on October 07, 2012, 07:50:14 AM I posted about the bug in the main thread for the second time: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.msg1242236#msg1242236 Maybe if we complain enough ckolivas will finally fix it Problem has been fixed, now cgminer should be able to use 7xxx cards effectively as of v. 2.7.7 :-) |
