Hello,   First post. I poked around and hope I am posting this in the correct location.

My names Brian,  I wanted to see what my computer could do in terms of turning it into a miner machine so I could learn this entire process as its really fascinating to me.

I loaded NiceHash Miner v2.0.1.4 and the program picked up my CPU and GPU.

CPU#1 - AMD FX-8350 Eight Core Processor
GPU#1 - EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti

Windows 10
1000W Gold PS
32 gigs of ram
SSD HD

I let it benchmark everything and start mining.  

My CPU is mining the algorithm CryptoNight at a speed of 255.200 H/s
My GPU says its mining Equihash   0.0000000 H/s


I am clueless as to why.   I did see it work at like 400 plus H/s for a few min today randomly.

I went through the troubleshooting and activated the settings in the Nvidia control panel for computation.

I am currently going to try the legacy app and see it it treats me any better.

thank you for any help you can offer.  I am new but will be up to speed in a few days.

I wish I could help, but I've been having issues with them now ever since they "upgraded" their new GUI. Almost never works for me, and I've tried a lot. If I were you I'd just mine the profitable coins directly on other pools with other miners.

Update:   I fixed all my issues and I am now using the new version 2.0.1.4

I have an ASUS router and under AI Protection > Network > I turned off the feature "Vulnerability Protection" and now im cooking with gas.

CPU#1 .  Cryptonight . - 243 H/s
GPU#2 - Equihash  -  418 h/S

Daily Estimated at  $USD 2.40

thank you

Yea!! you just solved my problem!! I never would have thought of the router!! I have a ASUS RT-AC66U_B1 router, and I was having the same problem.

They should make this a sticky, so people will know to check their router.

Sorry to bring up a dead post but I've tried everything until I found this. Thank you so much. Went from $0.65/day to $3.85/day.

Again.

Thank you.
