Title: Windows 10 loses hashing speed!
Post by: molitar on January 11, 2017, 05:07:35 AM
I have Windows 10 and it keeps blowing up.. It will run great at default 27-28 MH/s for each RX 480.. I reboot than bam I am down to a lousy 19-20 MH/s!  I have to system restore.. than damn system restore blows up and I can't restore back anymore.. Anyone else having issues with Windows 10?  I am about to try the damn Windows 7 more than 6 GPU hack as I have 7 GPU cards!

I actually had that happen to one system this past weekend.  I ended up just putting a dummy plug on the gpu not hooked up to the monitor and that fixed the problem.

I was just glad that i happen to be able to find at least one of my dummy plugs after i moved... i think the rest of them ended up in storage 1400 miles away...  :'(

hello molitar

maybe a weird idea but maybe you could consider using pimp a Linux based but easy to get into mining OS.
we have not had a incident where this has happend and we offer the best miners out there so you are able to chose your personal favorite.
and we are constantly updating so you have the latest and greatest without the use of dummypluggs.

if you have questions just come and take a look at our site getpimp.org or come chat with us on irc #pimp on the freenode server

Use Windows 8.1 pro - I have run 7 GPU no problem

Make sure that no monitoring software (like HWiNFO64) is launching at the start up. It may impact hashing speed seriously, especially main GPU. In my case it was 28MH/s reduced to 6MH/s on the main GPU.

It seems like underclocking/overclocking issue to me, are you trying out some miner's own clocking tools? I faced that problem once I undervolted the GPU's too much.

I don't think that it's the issue with Windows 10.
