Title: 11.6/2.4 and still cpu bug on Windows 7 x64 *SOLVED*
Post by: BCMan on January 25, 2012, 11:08:34 AM
 Moved today from XP to W7. I cleaned remained dlls from 2.5 SDK and double checked that 2.4 is installed, but I'm still getting that damn bug. No issues however on XP. What's going wrong?

Are you still using the same install of the mining program?

 I use phoenix with same parameters as used on XP. Should be a difference?

Need more info. Single/multi gpu? x86/x64? What gpu(s) exactly? So far the only no-cpu-bug combos I found with my current mining boxes are single gpu setups. I havent found any reliable multi-gpu setups that have no cpu bug and ensure 99+% gpu activity during mining.

12.1 + 2.6 + single gpu + low-medium aggression = no cpu bug. (5830 @ 975/1200 AGG7 WORK64 VECTORS4 phatk2 phoenix, ~310mhash)
11.11 + 2.1 + single gpu + any aggression = no cpu bug (5830 @ 990/330 AGG12 WORK256 VECTORS phatk2 phoenix, 322.7mhash)

I think 11.6 + 2.1 + multi gpu = no cpu bug, but I had problems with my gpus not maintaining 100% gpu activity and my hash rate suffered.

Multi gpu, but second gpu is a mobo chip. HD5770 and internal chip HD4250 on motherboard. Windows 7 x64. I use 4250 for browsing, bd movies, games, etc, just to offload 5770. I don't have cpu bug with XP (32 or 64 bit) with both 5770(arrgession=12)/4250 active and 11.6/2.4 or 2.1 (same performance to me).
 Cant get 2.1 to work on W7x64, more here.
