Title: How to minewith 5 GPUs on win7? Post by: Glandoux on March 11, 2014, 10:53:38 PM I just added a 5th card and I get error 43. I searched around the net and it says win7 doesn't allow 5+GPUs but I only have win 7. I also read there's a work around but there were no details as to what this workaround is. Anyone got any advice?

2. for clarification are you using 5 single gpu cards. 3. what kind of cards u using in your setup. should add some more hint what's wrong with your setup... Title: Re: How to minewith 5 GPUs on win7? Post by: Glandoux on March 12, 2014, 04:26:33 AM I am using 5 club3d 270 cards and the board is the bit coin Asus one.
I figured I didn't have to put that because I read it was Win7 that limits to 4 cards and there's a work around. If this isn't the case I can post all the details of my rig. Title: Re: How to minewith 5 GPUs on win7? Post by: prometheianz on March 12, 2014, 12:24:08 PM Check out my guide:

It's unstable and doesn't work with jane, is that normal? Title: Re: How to minewith 5 GPUs on win7? Post by: MineNerd on March 13, 2014, 10:35:56 PM If you can't get 5 cards to work with Win 7, try the 90 day evaluation version of Win 8.1
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/hh699156.aspx It will auto detect all 5 cards on install, no additional drivers needed. I did this with a 5x r9 270 rig. Easiest rig i've ever setup.
