Title: 5830 - "DEAD" until restart Post by: DeLorean on December 09, 2011, 03:49:24 PM Here's a paste of what I see when this happens: http://pastebin.com/xMn65yvk
Twice now in the last week, cgminer says the card is "DEAD" and all I have to do is restart it and it works fine for a few days. What could be causing this? Title: Re: 5830 - "DEAD" until restart Post by: Tullphan on December 10, 2011, 12:57:34 AM Try reinstalling the drivers.

I reinstalled the driver and I'm still having the same issue. Anyone else? Title: Re: 5830 - "DEAD" until restart Post by: P4man on December 13, 2011, 07:59:58 AM GPU crashes. Try reducing your clocks.

If you are not getting a small pop up from task bar(Win 7) stating the driver has crashed then it's your clocks. Not all configurations can support the same OC.

[Not all configurations can support the same OC. This. Just because someone else can get xxx/yyy doesn't mean you can. You need to experiment. As someone else pointed out you know you are close when it goes days before getting a dead. A slight tweak from there will likely make it stable for weeks. I have one rig going now for 3 weeks. Usually I don't get more than a month due to software changes, dying USB drives, power outages, etc. Also just because you can get xxx/yyy with 50F ambient (input air) temp doesn't mean you can get xxx/yyy with 105F ambient temp.

Both for the cards and for your power supply(s). Spending the few extra bucks on an 'overkill' PSU will pay for itself quickly in reduced loss from heat inefficiencies. |
