Title: BFGMiner Requesting work Updates
Post by: locohammerhead on May 01, 2014, 03:49:23 PM
I currently have CGMiner up and running fine but I want to switch over to MultiMiner for the profitability switching.  The problem I am coming across is BFGMiner just keeps requesting work updates but never actually mines or reports to the pool. 
In MultiMiner the hashrate will go up to about 700 (I get 910 with CGMiner) and will then plummet to lower than 25KH/s also does not report to the pool.

So from what I can guess the problem is with BFGMiner but I have absolutely no idea what could be causing it.  Should I try an older version?  Will it work with MultiMiner if I do?
Troubleshooting I have done so far.

Running AMD 13.12 drivers I tried 14.14 but they did not work at all.  Tried other driver versions with the same results.
Removed and setup BFGMiner from scratch a few times
Windows firewall is not blocking the application.

Here is my config file.  Of course I have the worker and password in my actual config.
