Title: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: ajg007 on May 20, 2013, 03:13:34 PM Hi. My problem is exactly whats described in the thread below
CGminer - GPU0: invalid nonce - HW error (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=179718.0) I have tried all of the suggestions in that thread and none work for me. The only mining software I've been able to get my card working with is Reaper, but i have to use the proxy so it uses stratum. Now that's fine until i find a better solution as sometimes the proxy takes 7-8 mins to send a reply back! Are there any other alternative software out there that will allow stratum? and work with a ati radeon hd 5670 (before you laugh at the card...i've only been mining a week and just sorting out the technical issues before i spend hard earned cash on better hardware) P.s I know guiminer/cgminer work as my onchip graphics work properly Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: ajg007 on May 20, 2013, 03:17:27 PM The 5670 is now in a dedicated rig running win7
Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: ujka on May 20, 2013, 03:25:41 PM Try mining with Ufasoft coin-miner.exe (http://ufasoft.com, file is in /files/ufasoft_coin_0.58.exe).
It known as CPU miner, but new versions also use GPUs. And can use stratum pools. Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: hashkey on May 20, 2013, 05:10:26 PM alg007, have you tried to rollback your Catalyst to

Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: DaGreatRV on May 20, 2013, 05:48:50 PM You could try the Bitminter client. It's not that great in performance and you will mine for the bitminter pool. But, it's got a GUI! ;D
Anyway, its worth a shot I guess.

I only got this error when I over-overclocked my card. Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: hashkey on May 20, 2013, 06:22:33 PM You could try the Bitminter client.

What's the version of your last working Catalyst before you had this cgminer problem? None have worked with the 5670. Only been mining a week. Only reaper works :-( The cards never been overclocked Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: keccak512 on May 20, 2013, 06:58:51 PM That's strange.
Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: ajg007 on May 27, 2013, 11:22:54 AM I've now got the 5670 working with cgminer.
I had to use the ati removal tool to completely remove all traces of drivers then download and install catalyst 12.8 drivers. After reboot i had to then find the opencl setup and manually install it. Now cgminer works, but get some errors and wondering if people could help? http://i43.tinypic.com/33x8qhx.png Now there is no monitor attached and whats the issues with the adl? Thanks Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: ajg007 on May 27, 2013, 04:24:57 PM I did have it working, but for some reason temperature and fan speed was not being reported.
So i uninstalled everything and done exactly what i did before, now cgminer/guiminer/bfgminer wont even start! lol Back to reaper for me :-( EDIT:Now have bfgminer working with cgwatcher Happy days :-D Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: SistaFista on May 27, 2013, 07:05:07 PM Lower intensity to 12, 8192 threads :)
Title: Re: Problems with cgminer/guiminer Post by: ajg007 on June 01, 2013, 03:11:40 PM Ive cracked it now.
Cleaned out drivers using ati tool and installed 12.10 and cgminer works flawlessly. |
