Title: Is my worked saved in between reboots? Post by: dnkyb0n3z on February 15, 2011, 02:29:08 AM I followed these instructions here: http://www.newslobster.com/random/how-to-get-started-using-your-gpu-to-mine-for-bitcoins-on-windows and have a few questions.
One is, is my worked saved between reboots, and if so, is there anyway for me to see completion of the current block? Two is, should the bitcoin client running with the -server switch be reporting CPU + GPU Khash/s? My command session for the video card says about 50000 khash/s, and the client running the CPU's says about 3600 Khash/s. THanks! ***edit*** I'm running windows. ***edit*** -M@ Title: Re: Is my worked saved in between reboots? Post by: Dude65535 on February 15, 2011, 02:37:23 AM There is no work to save. You are constantly making attempts each of which has a very very small chance of producing a valid result.

I guess I don't fully understand how this works then. THanks for the response :)

thanks, -M@ Title: Re: Is my worked saved in between reboots? Post by: Fractality on February 15, 2011, 08:19:06 PM The client doesn't do GPU hashing, so it can't report that rate, I think.
