Title: Anyone have Wattman working with TeamViewer or Remote Desktop?
Post by: tf2addict on September 25, 2017, 07:20:58 PM
Wattman just displays a white window (or sometimes translucent) in both of those remote viewing apps.  So I literally have no way to use Wattman remotely, I have to plug in a monitor and keyboard/mouse to the rig.  Very irritating.

Why don't I just use Afterburner?  Afterburner doesn't work with my AMD cards, never has.  That's a whole nother problem.

Well I guess, this is associated with your problem, All my AMD rigs can do remotely and can open up wattman or MSI Afterburner to do configuration or play around with it, you may try to fix this first, as I see something is messing up with your wattman or MSI application, I am using teamviewer to do remote and sometimes VNC and I dont encounter any problem with it.

It's really strange Afterburner don't work with your setup... It should be ok

Are you using the latest AMD Mining driver ? Then you should go to the topic on bitcointalk and check for some advice to make it work with Afterburner

Good luck

2 of my rigs are still running (I checked in pool) but when I login to Teamview, it always likes "initializing display parameters".

Wattman only works if a monitor is plugged in. A HDMI to vga dummy plug can simulate a monitor: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/laptop-to-projector-hdmi-to-vga-cable-converter-adapter-hdmi-vga-video-convertor-hdmi-vga-cable/32516776717.html
