Title: Can anyone confirm this?
Post by: pornluver on April 13, 2017, 03:32:35 PM
Will 16.11.5 be the best driver for claymore? Will it fix my problem?
And cannot be closed.

Not even end task in task bar would be able to close it.

Only in 1 rig and only for claymore run through multipoolhubminer

What happen is multipoolhubminer will try to open another claymore with the same problem

It basically stuck at the initial stage

Restarting the rig works.

But kind of a pain. Also if it happens in the middle of the night I am screwed.


It's always at the initial stage. Happens very rarely. However, the way multipoolhub did is that it sometimes restart the whole thing.

I am using 16.9.1 because it's the only driver that doesn't require bios check.

- use DDU to uninstall 16.9.1
- install 16.11.5
- install Claymore 9.0, use -asm 0 first
- do not overlclock
- match the required power with no more than 80% of the limit of your PSU
- do not use multipoolhub

Once stable you can mod parameters one by one

I don't know if it will fix your problem, but I have had the best luck with those drivers. Initially I was having trouble with claymore mining xmr and my rig with those drivers was stable, so that's what I run on all my rigs now and it works well with any coin I mine.

I have 16GB of ram and plenty of SSD dedicated for virtual memory.

The reason I ask is because changing driver isn't easy. Most versions require signature check except 16.9 to 16.11

I used to want to squeeze every last penny out of my mining but you'll get to a point where convenience, simplicity, stability, and time become a big factor.

Just mine ETH or dual mine ETH+Whatever. If ZEC becomes more profitable, mine that. If XMR becomes more profitable, mine that. Done.

I agree with that. I also do not do much overclocking now.

Virtual memory is not generated by RAM. It is taken up as storage on your hard drive / SSD. As long as your hard drive is big enough to have 16GB, then you're fine. I use 120GB SSD, so I up my virtual memory up to 32GB. Not sure if this makes a difference, but I have the storage to spare.
