Title: SGMINER - Scrypt HD6870 configuration - HELP Post by: Jayjay04 on February 25, 2014, 04:57:46 PM Hi everybody,
I'm in need of a generous soul to help me with the configuration of my HD 6870 for mining scryptcoins. My setup is pretty simple, I have 2 gpu, 1 nvidia quadro 600 and 1 HD 6870. I don't want to use my nvidia as long as my screen is connected to it and it's pretty useless. I need explicit and detailed information how to configure only the HD6870, and how configure sgminer to only select this one. I've tried lunching sgminer with -n parameters, to help me with the classification of my gpu, but it closes as soon as it opens. So, I need help here. First, which programs, update or drivers to I have to install on my computer ? (catalyst Drivers, APP-SDK and sgminer are install on my computers.) Is there something missing ? And after, how do I configure my bat file or my config file or my shortcut with parameters to make it work... that's where i'm pretty lost in all the geeks explanations... Thanks for your help.

Is there anyone that can tell my how to specify to sgminer in my .conf how to select only my second gpu (the hd6870), because for now it seems that is uses only my gpu 0 (the nvidia), which make my computer crashes ! Thx for your help Title: Re: SGMINER - Scrypt HD6870 configuration - HELP Post by: Starscream on February 26, 2014, 04:15:05 PM Simpliest way is cloud mining. No need to buy any hardware, just need some btc to buy Khash/s http://scrypt.cc?ref=baars (http://scrypt.cc?ref=x-x-x) Nuff said.

But I just got a HD 6870 from a friend and trying to make it work !! It seems that not much people uses 6870 with sgminer... Title: Re: SGMINER - Scrypt HD6870 configuration - HELP Post by: Jayjay04 on February 26, 2014, 04:41:26 PM I can't believe nobody is able to help me here !
Is it even possible to mine only with my second gpu (hd6870) while I have a nvidia quadro 600 set as my primary gpu for my pc !??!?! Title: Re: SGMINER - Scrypt HD6870 configuration - HELP Post by: Jayjay04 on February 27, 2014, 05:37:02 PM For the ones interested, I found my problem !
