Title: Errors scrolling on screen while miner is running
Post by: zerf2004 on April 16, 2017, 01:50:43 AM
I am seeing this message scroll over and over on the monitor while mining claymore 9 (eth/dcr) on smOS. What is this error trying to tell me? I currently am running 6 msi armor 470s on a tb250-btc.

Any ideas of this error is something to work about or not? What is it trying to say? Anything I can try to do to fix it? How do I identify which card is having the issue?

Try to clean all PCIE connectors. Fence likes to cause such errors.

Another tip:
You must recognise card that have problem.
You have 2 ways.
1. Disconnect all cards and then connect one by one and test.

2. Disconnect one card and test. If there is still error, disconnect another one. Last disconnected card was haveing problem (if only one have problem).

Regards

PS for cleaning i am using grain alcohol.

Lucky, when i have bad connection the pc crashes without these errors.

Clean the slot, blow it out and insert the riser/card a few times to get a solid connection.

Might have a faulty riser as well.
