Title: CGMiner Error - Not Picking Up Devices
Post by: Abysinian on April 09, 2013, 07:14:56 PM
Hi there,

GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7970M
CPU: i7-3610QM

I just downloaded the new version of CGMiner (2.11.4) and opened it up and received this error:

 [2013-04-09 20:04:54] Started cgminer 2.11.4
 [2013-04-09 20:04:54] Error -1: Getting Device IDs (num)
 [2013-04-09 20:04:54] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable
 [2013-04-09 20:04:54] No devices detected!
 [2013-04-09 20:04:54] Waiting for USB hotplug devices or press q to quit
 [2013-04-09 20:04:54] Need to specify at least one pool server.
Input server details.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on and why it won't pick up either of my devices? Using GUIMiner I can mine with my CPU but it doesn't pick up my GPU either. I know that the GFX Card is working so it seems odd that it's not showing up.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.
