Title: Afterburner and Claymore HELP...multiple instances
Post by: opies32765 on August 27, 2017, 02:07:46 AM
Guys,

I have an issue with one of my rigs that i cannot figure out. I have

asus z270-a
6 GTX 1060's 6gb
2 GTX 1070

IF i start afterburner before i start the miner the computer freezes. I have switched the motherboard with a new one, the processor with a new one(G4400) i have switched the memory, i have re installed a fresh copy of windows 10, i have changed out my PSU's...I even added more than enough power to see if its a power issue but nothing....

The only thing i can think of is because i have 6 1060's and 2 1070's something is not working correctly at the start of claymore. I have also tried 9.7 and 9.8 and the ame thing happens....

Does anyone know if its possible to delay an instance of claymore by lets say 30 seconds ? I know how to run different instances but cannot figure out if it possible to delay one of them....

I want to be able to set it up so that if the rig restarts it can start running the instances with AB

Thanks in advance

I use a bat file to start my miner 30 seconds after windows loads, so put the following right above your miner line:

TIMEOUT /T 30 /NOBREAK
then your miner line executable goes here


I had to use the /NOBREAK due to various windows booting processes that were interrupting my 30 second countdown.

Thanks Gary

I tried that and no luck. It has to be something to do with the miner trying to start all the 1060's and the 1070's at the same time

arrrrrr
