Have you switched it to use onboard graphics as primary display device in the bios?
Mobo: ASRock H81 PRO BTC R2.0 S1150 Intel H81 GPU's: 6x Sapphire RX570 Nitro+ 8GB
I never had any problems booting the system before as I was setting the rig up whilst the screen was always plugged in and now when everything is set up I must plug the monitor in to boot the system. Never ever had this kind of problem with any other computer systems.
Mainboard Bios -> advanced settings -> disable render stand by. I'm not sure which suggestion helped more as when I entered BIOS I have change switched on together. Now it boots perfectly from the first time. Thank you! Good to hear. I've tried the first suggestion on my vega 56 rig and it didn't work for me. This weekend I'll look for the render standby setting . I'm using a different board, so hopefully I actually have that setting.

Not trying to kick you while you're down or anything. Just please don't go the shady route again. Those guys could have just as easily been honest people, but unfortunately there are probably way more dishonest people than honest ones out there.
I wish I would have thought of this before you got scammed, but you should have just bought hardware and got into gpu mining. No age restrictions on mining into a pool and no age restrictions on setting up wallets. Your investment would have been in the hardware, but you would be getting paid back for that investment in the coins that you mined. You would have the coins you mined in your own cold storage and there are even some legit exchanges that don't require verification until you start doing high dollar amount trades. I'm kicking myself for not suggesting that to you, because it's a decent way for someone under 18 to get into the crypto world, especially if they have tech knowledge.

I did that last weekend on my vega rig and it wouldn't boot at all. With or without monitor in the onboard hdmi.

Let me know if that works ... Might give that a shot this weekend, if I have time.

If you are still a child and not yet a teenager, I suggest trading bitcoin in the care of your guardian, after all, all investments are risky.
I am a teenager and as I mentioned my situation with parents/guardian are not standard. Didn't anyone try to talk you out of doing this? Anyone could have seen that scam coming from a mile away, so I'm not sure why you didn't. Hate that it happened to you, but damn man. You have to be smart about stuff.

I have a Vega 56 rig (different mb) that has the same problem and I have yet to figure out why it won't boot without a dummy hdmi or a monitor plugged into the gpu that's in the pcie16 #1 slot. Even using igpu when I need to plug a monitor into that rig fucks everything up. My 1070ti rigs ... No issues at all with that sort of thing. Honestly though, for me ... If it's going to take too much time to troubleshoot and you can fix it with a ten dollar dummy hdmi, that's what I'll do. I spent two hours last weekend trying to get igpu to work and it's just not worth wasting any more time on right now. As long as the rigs are hashing, we're in a good mood.

I am fairly computer literate but not an expert by any means. Don't build my own computers or write programs etc. What is the best way for me to go and what coin(s) should I look into mining?
Hopefully you don't think editing your Christmas List in MSWord qualifies you as computer literate. If you really aren't an idiot, I would say, go for it. Build some gpu rigs.

|

I wonder if these people are just trolls or if they really are that dumb.
|
|
|
Really? There isn't anything else that I could do? What type of gpu's and board do you have? Did this just all of the sudden start happening or has it not ever worked? But yeah, I would first try the hdmi dummy plug.

I have $10,000 available to purchase mining equipment and unlimited free electricity provided through a company lease.

If you don't build your own computers, don't build a mining rig. Take your $10k and go buy Bitcoin at $13.5k, sell at $16.5k, rinse, repeat. NO! He'll lose money every time doing that. You have to buy it at 14.5k and sell it at 17.5k to make that magic internet money.

Spend some of that 10K educating yourself. I'll give you a free lesson though.
Lesson 1: Learn how to not ask retarded questions.

I have two rigs running with that board. Zero issues.

Who is buying these things at 800 dollars? At that rate why not go with a 1080 Ti? The Vegas are only amazing at Cryptonight from what I can tell. Almost a cryptonight ASIC as a mining card...
Why wouldn't they? A modified vega gets double what a 1080ti can net you in returns. Even if it's cryptonight/ethereum only there are these things called Exchanges where you can then convert to your coin of choice. Not sure if you've heard of them before. Can't even imagine the crazy profitability we'd get per card if ETN makes a price action, would be insane. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

!!! SCAM ALERT !!! - There is no actual picture about the miner
- I personally wouldn't trust this kind of seller
- How he want you to pay for him
- How you find this seller ?
Oh this is an online deal? I thought the nigger was a friend of his. IF THIS IS ONLINE (as in, you don't personally know him), GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM THIS DEAL ASAP. At the end of the day, nigga gonna be a nigger. Enough said. Stop TRYING TO GET SCAMMED!

Send your mom over to my house. She can mine with my laptop all day long, if she works out a trade with me for the electricity. LOL. WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? You still have a lot of research to do!
|
|
|
This guy is a fucking idiot. That's all I have to say. If he wasn't, he would not ask idiotic questions that contain stupid scenarios.
|

I personally wouldn't buy from someone who sends you pictures via photobucket and then you click the next button, and it shows you a picture of a pack of NIKE socks! WTF? Not saying it's the sellers fault, but photobucket is dogshit these days with the ads.
Can't tell heads from tails.
He just walked out of the meeting after I told him that his business was bullshit. Who is fucked up in that scenerio? Me or him? Can you really ever know?
That kind of situation.

Hi leowonderful, Many thanks for the reply.I am not very technical
Thanks
No kidding? I would not have guessed. You better get technical very quickly or hire someone who is. Otherwise, just buy low and sell high.

Unless you are using the laptop to control USB miners, where the actual WORK of mining is not being done by the laptop, VERY VERY BAD IDEA.
Laptops are NOT designed for high-power usage 24/7 like mining imposes on a machine, you probably WILL kill the laptop fairly quickly if you try to mine on it.
This is also probably the 50'th time AT LEAST this question has been asked since I first started visiting this forum.
Only the 50th? You've been here much longer than I have and I feel like I've seen this question 50 times.
