Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit System Hardware Specs: NVIDIA GTX 1660ti Description of Problem: No devices are found. BFGMiner is not detecting my gpu. I dont know if this is a configuration issue, a driver issue, or if im just not pointing to a proper path where the gpu is located. The application was initialized and built with --Scrypt enabled. The gpu is being detected in device manager and in NVIDIA control panel. WinUSB Drivers, Latest NVIDIA Drivers are installed Code: bfgminer -D -d -L --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://us2.litecoinpool.org:3333 -u RipSwear.1 -p 1 NO DEVICES FOUND Quote lowl-vcom.c _vcom_devinfo_scan_windows__hubport() : The system cannot find the file specified. I also have findings about Quote --scan|-S <arg> Im not sure how to properly set the path to the gpu on windows using --scan. For Educational purposes and would appreciate any help.

But its a waste of time if you want to mine scrypt with GPU because the algo is dominated by asics ! Dont know if BFGMiner 5.5.0 support scrypt algo for GPUs.

miners which do support scrypt mining in gpus are obsolote now and it will not work well with the latest gen of gpus i will suggest mining nicehash and renting scrypt hash from there if you want to mine something |
