Title: Any applications to let me know of Graphic Card Crash?
Post by: newyorkyankz on January 02, 2014, 04:02:29 AM
Any app that can email you if your graph card crashes?  This doesn't happen often to me, but if i could be notified by an email or something it would make things easier.. Anyone know of any??

CGwatcher for Windows seems to be a popular one. Never tried it myself, but you might want to take a look into it.

If you're on Linux, you just have to watch the process using any method you want. Here's an example:

You could just add a command to mail yourself instead of restarting the process: http://www.simplehelp.net/2008/12/01/how-to-send-email-from-the-linux-command-line/

Whenever I go out of town, I use teamviewer for windows to moniter my cgminer.  It's free for private use and fast. Unlike remote desktop connection, it doesn't interfere with cgminer, and you can actually work on your desktop while you are away.  So if it crashes, you need to adjust intensity, reconfigure the .bat, etc... you can.  Hope this helps!
