Title: Radeon + cgminer = "invalid nonce - HW error"
Post by: hax on June 07, 2013, 11:30:34 AM
Hi,

running cgminer on Radeon graphic card keeps causing error mentioned in the topic. I tried different versions of cgminer and catalyst driver. Always either graphic card is not visible or cgminer is able to generate only HW errors. I checked the card and it seems to be fine. Any idea how to solve that problem?

Hi,

Please tell us your graphics card model and cgminer parameters.
You need proper settings (especially --thread-concurrency) for your miner and proper clocks for your graphics card to avoid hardware errors.

what ATI model do you have? What version of catalyst? What version of cgminer?

the catalyst version is most likely the one causing you problems, if you have an HD58xx you'll need to use a downgraded catalyst version

Hi,

as for your questions:
cgminer version: 3.2.0 (but I also tried different versions)
catalyst version: 13.4-3 (but I also tried downgrading)
Graphic card: Radeon HD 6770

as for Nacsiar post - I also tried it but it haven't solved the problem :(
