Title: Cgminer Questions (W7): Access is Denied, Crashes... [bounty 25 WDC] Post by: 0nlyBTC on March 18, 2014, 09:31:30 AM I just built a new computer with these specs:
OS: Windows 7 64 Bit Drivers: Catalyst 13.12 Ram: 8GB MotherBoard: Asus 990x Sabertooth CPU: AMD FX-8350 GPU: Sapphire R9 270x Toxic cgminer version: 3.7.2 Objective: To run my "miner" optimal (generally safe levels) and mining WDC. Situation: I decided to use the .bat method instead of the .conf settings for cgminer. I want to mine WDC using wdc.coinmine.pl using my R9 270x Toxic via cgminer (3.7.2). The recommended settings from the pool is here https://www2.coinmine.pl/wdc/index.php?page=gettingstarted (https://www2.coinmine.pl/wdc/index.php?page=gettingstarted). I create a new .txt file (in the cgminer file) and insert these settings (I do know not correct settings from my GPU) however I inputted these below: Code: setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 I obtained these settings from http://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/comments/1rcwpj/radeon_270x_cgminer_config/ (http://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/comments/1rcwpj/radeon_270x_cgminer_config/) *I changed the intensity to 16/17/19 with no change in results* Results: When I save the .txt file to a .bat file > I run the .bat as an administer > cgminer open & crashes immediately upon opening. Cmd says "access is denied." Next I run the cmd: I drag the .bat file to the cmd window> I get a new window saying "C:\Users\Anon\cgminer.exe is not a valid Win32 Application" Solution: ? I have been trying to get cgminer to work for the passed week with no avail. I searched and tried available solutions for forums and tutorials and had nothing. Again I a complete noob at mining. If you can find a solution for my situation complete my objective I'll send you 25 WDC in return. |
