Title: GUIminer problem
Post by: stefsom on February 28, 2013, 12:35:29 PM
Today I installed the latest beta drivers from ATI 13.2
But when I start GUIminer I get 'Verification failed, check hardware! (0:0:Juniper, 79163386)' error.

I've never seen that error. I used to run GUIminer, but replaced it with cgminer last summer. cgminer is great.

poclbm always gave me an error when trying to run it (I used BitMoose for a few weeks and I forget my first mining program, but both gave me some sort of error).  Switched to command line cgminer after taking the parameters from BitMoose and haven't looked back.

I had the same problem today getting the "verification failed" message on 13.2 drivers and then having guiminer and every other miner crash on start up after switching to older drivers.

What I did was uninstall all AMD software/drivers, reboot and install catalyst 13.1 drivers.

Then I followed the steps listed here: http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=359883 and now it's working fine.

You should always do some research about newer drivers before installing them, I was running on 12.8 all the way up untill 13.2beta6 (Works great for me btw) because all the other versions had problems, like i couldnt mine, Games would crash, horrible artifacts, The works.
