Using 14.9 driver.
Initially the 6th card was showing the code 43 error and after running the mod, the device got unlisted from the device manager.
Now showing only 5 cards.
Couldn't retrieve back.
Kindly help.
In case something goes wrong
By default 6xGPU_mod will create backup registry file in the current folder - launch it and reboot.
Also simply re-installing the driver should help - all changes done by the mod will be gone. However, device disappearing from the device manager.. weird, maybe there is hardware issue. |

OH GOD! What do I do? ... Then it only picks up one out of my two cards  Add: ... wut? using mint, 2x 290 cards. On Win it usually points to driver issues, fixed by cleanup and re-install. On *nix.. maybe the same. |

isn't this program related to having a modified vbios. Usually a undervolted bios that works in linux but not windows
This file is part of AMD video driver. When something is wrong with the hardware usually that's the driver showing as the reason of crashes/bsods. In this case however probably the driver is causing crash cause it is buggy, or at least I hope that it is. |

I have no idea why, but it works fine. Thanks
weird.. Maybe cause of "True"? CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run "F:\miner.bat", 0, True-> invisible.vbs: CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run """" & WScript.Arguments(0) & """", 0, False
bWaitOnReturn
Optional. Boolean value indicating whether the script should wait for the program to finish executing before continuing to the next statement in your script. If set to true, script execution halts until the program finishes, and Run returns any error code returned by the program. If set to false (the default), the Run method returns immediately after starting the program, automatically returning 0 (not to be interpreted as an error code).

Can someone explain why sgminer automatically forces a terminal window to be open? I really hate having the terminal open while I'm using the pc, so I was using the following vbs script to hide cgminer: CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run "F:\miner.bat", 0, TrueIt works perfectly fine with cgminer and runs the .bat file without issue, and without a CMD window, but whenever I try using it with sgminer it will force open a CMD window. The above vbs script will open the sgminer bat file without issue, and sgminer will run without issue, but it will sit there in a CMD window. Any way to get this to work similar to cgminer, without a CMD window? Scheduled Tasks: start on logon -> inv.cmd: wscript.exe "C:\Coins\invisible.vbs" "C:\Coins\start_miner_bg.cmd"
exit
-> invisible.vbs: CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run """" & WScript.Arguments(0) & """", 0, False
+ start_miner_bg.cmd: @echo off
cd "C:\Coins\sgminer-5.0-daily-20140712-15-win32\"
6950_7950_Powercolor_Stock-p8h6v_BG.cmd
+ 6950_7950_Powercolor_Stock-p8h6v_BG.cmd: @echo off
....date crap...
sgminer -c 6950_7950_Powercolor_Stock-p8h6v_multi_BG.conf 2>c:\log\sgminer_%ldt%_bg.log
exit
Works for me on Win7. |

Not compatible with 14.9.Please update.
Sure, however I need access to 6+GPU rig. Mine are at remote(very) location, also they are equipped with IDE HDDs, and since modding driver requires a lot of reboots and sometimes rigs hang, it is too painfull for me. |

GIGABYTE 990FXA UD3 motherboard, FX 8320, 4 X 2 GB RAM.
The problem comes when i install 5th 7990 which adds two more GPUs. Thes it installs driver and after restart when windows 8.1 is loading appears some kind of blue screen where is written that ATIKMPG of something like this file caused problem and windows will restart trying to fix this problem. And if no AMD driver is installed? Have you tried adding more RAM? Do you see BIOS on the monitor? Anyway, if this is AMD driver issue, maybe I will be able to mod the driver, pm me. Btw, what's ur motherboard revision? |

Don't use it - use TeamViewer or something.
Guess that is one way ,,, I have been using team viewer but it's so slow and small compared ,,, So if the temp's and fan speed don't show, does that mean they are not there or do they still work in the background ? if i remember right it completely disables them as if you used --no-adl well i guess the GPU clock settings are working because the hash rate is still the same ,,, I'll listen out for the fan speed changing LOL ADL is the part of AMD driver used for monitoring and adjustments. When you connect via RDP the system is no longer using AMD GPU driver but switches to m$ RDP video driver, ADL is trying to bind to it and fails, hence no clocks/temperatures. However the GPU continues to work fine and if you somehow log back on console u'll see temps. I prefer VNC instead of TV for mining rigs. |

OP doesn't state if 14.7 R3 is supported OP does state this, tho - Supported driver versions and operating systems
Any Windows and any AMD driver version should be supported in theory.
Anyway, if you try it and it won't work, I'll take a look. |
|
|
|
Lol, what a mess. Oh well, hope he clears things up.
ha, if that was the plan...it was pretty elaborate.
Yeah ; ) At this point I even hope that all that was intented and planned scam, so at least someone will get something positive from all this. So far I see angry ppl loosing money and Litecoin assoiciation/mods, CacheCoin, XC taking hits and Jasin dissapearing ; )) |
|
|
|
|
As for XC.. I don't even know what that is.
Whats is clear.. some ppl think that.. Jasin smells.. and so everything connected to him smells too.
|
|
|
|
Whoa there!!!!
Can someone please link me to the "proof" that Jasin' been naughty? I find it hard to believe.
And I can tell you without a single shred of doubt that the Cachecoin dev is not in anyway linked with any shady shit.
Very naughty ; ) https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=2702.0No proof there, tho. But some things do look.. u know.. weird ; ) Fib ASIC marketing was nice - aim at forum members, LTC defense blah-blah, 'trusted' distribution. Most of concerns raised were flagged as 'trolling'/'FUD'/'shill attacks' and sometimes post deleted. Also - 'we are not forcing you to buy our Fib ASIC' type answer was used frequently to answer some of the concerns ; ) Litecointalk forum moderators were made involved by making some of them 'trusted hosts'. And ofc it is very hard to separate your private interest from public forum moderation. This resulted in biased(imo) mods actions in Fib ASIC threads and other ASIC manufacturers threads. As in - in Fib thread mods were making warning and deleting(?) 'concerns' as fud/trolling and posting similar 'concerns' in other threads by themselves ; ) To confirm read all posts of mods in all AISC threads.. (yeah it's very annoying, but funny). CACHE.. Jasin started accepting CacheCoin as a payment for Fib ASIC at a fixed price, higher than on the exchanges. Some members on bitcointalk and litecointalk had "ASIC coin" in their signatures. CacheCoin exchange rate went up. If I'm not mistaken litecontalk moderator Sy had huge ammount of Cache(mined?) so he bought a lot of Fib ASICs. After Fib stopped accepting Cache exchange rate plummeted down. Some ppl claim that this was an intentional pump&dump of Cache and that the developer of Cache was involved. Cache dev(kalgecin) and jasin apparently were working together(?) on some Cache features and jasin occasinally made claims that he is very interested in Cache(and XC) and has some plans for it. At the time, the proof from jasin that is was not pump&dump I've read was that he has not sold any Cache received for the ASICs. However to gain profit from this possible p&d you don't necessarily need to sell aquired Cache, you just need to make enough profit on Cache rate fluctuation you knew in advance and number of ASICs you can buy with Cache was intentionally limited. Also there were some allegations(with proof) that jasin wife sold some Cache prior the pump. Also Fib ASICs were not sold as actual asics instead they were sold as hardware shares also Fib profit shares were sold. Exchange was promised for those to be implemented. It was never completed cause.. jasin said dev run away. There is also no proof that it ever was developed. Also defense line - 'we make ASICs no websites' was used to 'calm down' ppl concerned that Fib site is buggy and exchange is not completed yet ; ) And ofc that ppl are trolling and are shills of the competitors and that they are not developers and don't understand how much effort it takes to make and test a web site ; ) What's funny is that long before Fib began sales there was a talk that practice of giving money to 'trusted' ppl should be stopped. mmitech(litecointalk) argued that there are enough cases when 'trusted' ppl collected vast ammounts of BTC and dissapeared after. At the time Jasin said that comparison is wrong, cause he have not collected any money yet ; ) Well.. now he has ; ) After 'fud' of corrupted litecointalk mods, admins and LiteCoin association spread, TheMage(litecointalk mod) organised a meeting with Jasin where some 'trusted' ppl representing investors were allowed to ask Jasin some questions. Some of the info was not made public, cause Jasin said it is a part of NDA between him and ASIC chip designers. However, total ammount of planned ASIC chips was made public - ppl counted their orders and realised that planned ammount is much(?) less. Also coversation revealed the fact that Fib is still on ASIC prototyping/simulation stage. This is odd cause when KNC announced their scrypt ASIC, Fib raised performance, claiming that they have been designing ASIC for years and that at first they revealed well below performance number not to spook competitors. Again concerns were either marked as trolling/fud and partially answered with 'we have genious salsa dev'. Also Jasin claimed that ASIC design company(or fab?!) is not aware that they are designing ASIC to be used for litecoin mining and that it was deliberately made secret, because they hate everything about the cryptos and won't do the job if they knew. |

Is there any way to do this with Nvidia 750ti cards?
What is the issue with nVidia cards exactly? |

Hi,OP.My rigs lost audio after implemented this reg mod.It acts as HTPC sometimes.Can you post one without disabling the audio?
You have 5+ GPUs in HTPC? ; ) You can edit mod reg file before importing it. For example delete all lines setting DP_DisableHBR2. That way maybe you will find the key affecting audio. Probably this one - DalNumSupportedHDMIConnections. Since I don't use audio from GPUs and don't have any device which can use audio from GPU there is no way I can find which setting causes it. |

Setting clocks above def. works fine, underclocking doesn't work. I read it's a catalyst problem...it seems no one has a solution with "unofficial oc mode without with pp support" selected in AfterBurner, miner is able to under/over clock for me. |

Since Linux works, I really don't think it is a hardware issue.
Well, its not like hw is broken, but prly some combination of something is preventing win or driver to work properly. Like that 6x290 on rev.4.. we never figured what is going on.. tried 32GB of RAM, all available BIOS-es, different BIOS settings, risers, etc.. Or that 'full logo show', just crazy - how exactly gigabyte logo at startup help BIOS to boot? ; ) I personally think, that GA BIOS simply does not work if GPUs report no display at all(and 290 cards do that) but 'full logo show' is bugged and ignores display info from GPUs and just outputs.. The truth is out there ; ) Ah, btw, if you have display plugged in, make sure that BIOS is visible at boot if not plug it into different card until you see it. Some mobos and later win go nuts if display is plugged into not 'init first' card. |

this rig has 4gb of ram; the working one has 8
try this one first, should take the least time and ram sometimes is important |
|
|
|
Also, I got rid of:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
in my batch file. Is this necessary any more or not? Seems to make no difference either way.
Yes, but they come in effect after first run and logoff/reboot or immediately. No need to set them again and again. Tho, x11/x13/x15 barely use GPU RAM, so prly GPU_MAX_ALLOC is not required at all. |

I checked the box for Modify Registry and ran the app, restarted the machine and still had one of the cards showing a 43 error code. I then checked the box for Modify Registry and Force, ran the app and also merged the reg file manually then restarted and all cards were working. I should have restarted first without merging the reg file to test properly but it had been a long day so sorry for the poor testing there.
Hm.. maybe I do have some bugs in 'Modify Registry'.. Or not.. Sadly I've not implemented reporting mod results back to me so I could find what exactly is going on.. Anyway, will check. Headless, I was running windows 7 x64 with 6x Sapphire Tri-x 290's and mining Monero but kept getting lockups with any of Claymore's miners past 3.4 so I decided to give windows 8.1 a try. I have four of these rigs but testing on two of them, if I remove the monitor and then teamviewer in, all I get is a black screen. This issue was present before the mod and I have read a few people stating the exact same thing - http://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/comments/1wdawz/headless_windows_81_290x/ - With windows 7 I was restricted to a 640x480 teamviewer window, but at least I could see the desktop and there was just enough space to use the machine, windows 8.1 I get nothing. I have ordered a few of these - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00C9UB9OK/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - as the cards only have dvi-d, hdmi and display port and all of the dvi converters I have are dvi-i > vga. Fingers crossed. Yeah.. 640x480 also pisses me off. I've solved it by plugging dummy display emulator - into one of the cards ; ) This restriction comes from some mess about display detection logic and unlikely to be fixed ever. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/8a9b5aa7-fe33-4e6d-b39b-8ac80a21fdc2/disable-monitor-off-detection-how?forum=w7itprogeneralLong and sad story how certain software and hardware manufacturers could not or didn't want to make things 'right'. Try - setx DISPLAY ":0" and reboot, without this my Windows Server rigs don't work headless and both TeamViewer and some VNC servers show black screen. |
