Title: Help with cgminer .bat file Post by: spilltime on December 03, 2013, 04:38:53 PM I recently just started mining with an avalon ASIC. I was unable to get the tplink router working so I decided to wire it directly to my computer. On average I run at about 67gh at its default settings. I want to increase the frequency to about 325 to bump the hash, so I wrote my own batch file. My only problem is, when I run the .bat file cgminer also miners from my gpu on my computer and I do not want that to happen. Anyone have anyidea what kind of configure I need to only run the asic?
Below is my current .bat file start /D "C:\Users\Sean Spinner\Desktop\cgminer-3.4.0-windows\cgminer-3.4.0-windows" cgminer-o http://api.bitcoin.cz:8332" -u _______ -p _____ --avalon-freq 325 Title: Re: Help with cgminer .bat file Post by: Stewy12 on December 03, 2013, 06:12:49 PM I'm probably wrong but does it not have to be "cgminer-nogpu"?

I will find the newest cgminer update Title: Re: Help with cgminer .bat file Post by: vm1990 on December 03, 2013, 09:13:51 PM Update to a much newer cgminer. A lot has changed in that time. what do you recommend? BFGMiner? no hes saying update cgminer. hes the brains behind cgminer so if you look in his sig under his post is a link to the cgminer development page which has a link to new versions of cgminer.. current latest is 3.8.3 i think newer cgminers dont support cpu or gpu mining and are there just for ASIC devices Title: Re: Help with cgminer .bat file Post by: spilltime on December 05, 2013, 04:05:17 AM Update to a much newer cgminer. A lot has changed in that time. I've updated to 3.8.3 Now im lost. I tried using the same setup .bat file as the earlier version and I cannot get it to compile. I want to overclock my asic and run it around 325-350Hz but i cant figure out how to write this file.

Anyhow, there will be two executables you can launch, one of which is cgminer-nogpu. This contains the extra goodies needed for ASIC related mining. The other one is for GPU related mining, which doesn't seem to be what you are wanting.
As for mining with overlock... that is out of my area of knowledge. Title: Re: Help with cgminer .bat file Post by: -ck on December 05, 2013, 11:41:35 PM There is no cgminer-nogpu executable any more. The current version cgminer.exe only supports ASICs and FPGAs. If you're not even successfully getting your device running, then there's a 100% chance you have not yet set up a driver for it. Read the ASIC-README.txt file included for how to do that.
