Title: Windows 2000 and hash rates and overclocking Post by: dudemier on July 24, 2011, 06:22:47 PM I'm thinking about setting up a windows 2000 mining rig with a radeon 6870. Can I mine with this? Will my hash rates be lower than Linux and Windows 7 users?
Can I also still overclock the card with windows 2000? Title: Re: Windows 2000 and hash rates and overclocking Post by: Gabi on July 24, 2011, 07:52:55 PM I don't know but using windows 2000... is not a good idea
Title: Re: Windows 2000 and hash rates and overclocking Post by: bigjake52 on July 24, 2011, 07:55:37 PM I can not get a miner to work with windows 2000 it needs windows xp and higher and windows 2000 and xp are quite close to one another,
So just run windows xp, and install a light antivirus and your good to go Title: Re: Windows 2000 and hash rates and overclocking Post by: hmblm1245 on July 25, 2011, 09:24:06 PM I don't think the 6xxx drives will even work with Windows 2000. Why not try Ubuntu if you don't have XP,Vista,7?

The last driver for Win2k was 6.2 over 5 years ago!!!!! ;D Title: Re: Windows 2000 and hash rates and overclocking Post by: Smalleyster on July 25, 2011, 10:24:57 PM I run an ancient truck with win 2000 as my daily driver. Nothing bitcoin related works on it.
If I were you I'd set up a linuxcoin bootable USB stick, assuming your mob can boot to usb. Title: Re: Windows 2000 and hash rates and overclocking Post by: mc_lovin on July 26, 2011, 04:30:35 PM I wish I could travel back to 2000 and go bitcoining. If that makes any sense.
