Title: Stupid Noob help with GUIminer
Post by: Sorrowfox on May 24, 2013, 04:48:24 AM
Gah, been searching and reading so much my eyes are seriously hurting..

GUIminer refuses to see my Sapphire 7850. I've uninstalled/installed 3 different driver versions and still nada.
It only shows 0-0 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770
                   1-0 Pitcairn
                   1-1 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770


I'd try asking for help in a more specific location but I'm still limited via Newb Access =(

Try seeing if guiminer scrypt recognizes your GPU

Have you tried cgminer or bitminter?  Just go with what's easiest.

Try some browser based miners such as http://www.bitcoinplus.com/generate

Thank you guys, but for some reason none of them see my GPU. Only the CPU and "pitcairn"... the hell is pitcairn?

This is your GPU card! AMD Pitcairn is the name of the architecture for the HD7800Series

Try some browser based miners such as http://www.bitcoinplus.com/generate

Better use pool like bitminter (https://bitminter.com/) than this.

Ok, so I learned pitcairn is my GPU and started getting the opencl error, reverted from 13.5 beta to 13.4 and GUIminer see's my cpu,pitcairn and now my IGPU HD4000, which I remember it didn't show last time I had this setup... but alas, still the OpenCL error.
