Ok, I was being stupid. I figured it out, setting intensity to 14 solved the problem ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . I would recommend reviewing the executive summary in the first post of this thread. It has some good suggested starting points along with the most common command line switch's. Sam

Could somebody help me with an issue I'm having using any miner (cgminer included)?
My cards are only using 50% of their CPU constantly, as shown on the screenies below:
Are you purposely running your intensity that low? Are all of your GPU's running displays? Do you use your system while mining or is this dedicated? I would suggest only using one display and setting the intensity for that GPU to dynamic if being used or 7 if it is dedicated. Then the GPU's that aren't driving displays set the intensities to 8 or 9 and then tinker around a bit for best performance. But that's me, Sam

On bitcoin 0.6.x, there are the dumpprivkey and importprivkey RPCs - how to use them should be fairly obvious.
I appreciate the hints. I just wish this were properly documented so that I didn't have to rely on it being "fairly obvious". Thanks, Sam "bitcoind help" documents how to use them and the release notes mentioned the new capability. It's even in the wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_Calls_listWhat else do you expect? That looks helpful. Thanks, Sam

You'll need to import your keys into the new wallet client.
eleuthria, How does one go about doing that exactly? I have seem many references to do this. But have never been able to find any documentation or instructions on how to do it.

After disabling Namecoin log-polls and 12 hrs... EMC 0.7-0.8 Oz: 1.7-1.9
:/
It got worse?!? Does that percentage include NMC now? It didn't used to. Might ask ckolivas about that. The only other thing that I can think of is to disable sending stale shares and see what that does. Sam

omg how do unlock the btc address in my acc?
Uh, you don't. The purpose of locking it is so that nobody else can hack your account and change the address and steal your payout. Sam

I have a strange issue with cgminer... After a day or two of work hash rate starts to slowly drop from usual 440 Mhash/s and reaches 340 Mhash/s within 30-40 minutes where it stops. Restarting cgminer brings hashrate back to usual values. Any ideas why this happens?
Does the utility drop too? Sam

We're almost half way through this difficulty. Shouldn't there be enough data for the average and luck calculation to be present under the stat's page again? Sam

Oh wait, it was turned off? I don't see the option anymore (sure I saw it the other day!).
I don't know then, I only started mining here full-time yesterday. Previously was a back-up pool.
Go to Worker, on the left side of the screen then select edit and it is the first check box under comment. Uncheck it and see if that helps. It helped on mine but I didn't pay attention as to how much. Sam

Seem to be getting a reject rate of 1.2-1.4% What are others getting?
As a comparison, on EMC I get 0.6-0.7%. I have 4 BFLs on CGminer with load balancing between Ozcoin and EMC pool.
Did turning off the Namecoin Long Polls help? Sam

I sent you some NMC's, enjoy. Sam
Wow, that was generous ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Thank's again Another option would be to add possibility to donate unused BTC and NMC to pool's owner. Even if it's small amount - it just doesn't seem to be right if it will stuck in account forever. No problem. I do donate NMC's to a pool. I also have some stashed in an offline wallet too. As far as being stuck in an "account forever", I like to think of it as saving for the future in the hope that BTC will be a monetary standard at some point. Sam

I was merely thinking about getting several BTC cents and may be 0.1-0.2 NMC as side effect of merged mining. I cannot mine much more with my current hardware anyway. But you can send as much as you want of course ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) My NMC address is MwaoMwvuJgzevoEAHLyoDb2gU1PUw3PhwW Thanks. Well you mine approx 3 times more NMC than BTC with Merged Mining. I sent you some NMC's, enjoy. Sam

Or maybe you can reduce these thresholds, especially for NMC?
How many Namecoins do you want? Send me your NMC address and I'll be happy to send you a few worthless things. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Sam

You should probably Twitter it as well.
Oh, the way's company's have at their disposal to ignore their customers is mind boggling. Sam

Thanks for the info. If not for this posting I probably would have missed it since I don't frequent the area which it was posted. Thanks, Sam

It's a 480 GB SSD, I don't think Spinrite will help The box is a fairly recent reload, I'm not keen on doing it again. I was hoping someone might have a magic bullet. Ah, no I don't think it would be good to run any hard drive utility on an SSD. Is your swap file and temp directory set to the SSD? If so I would put a regular spinning hard drive in the system just for that purpose. It's supposedly bad to continuously re-write data to SSD's. Sam

I'm seeing some odd behavior if I use load-balance for the pool strategy under 2.4.1.
I'm mining on EMC and Ozcoin. If I use the default failover pool management strategy, I get a rejection rate of 0.4% or lower with either EMC or Ozcoin as the primary. If I use load-balance, my rejection rate goes up to around 4 or 5%.
I believe this, at least partially, because of Merged Mining. You get allot of Namecoin Long Poll's. On Ozco you can disable NMC LP's, don't know about EMC but I would check and see if disabling NMC LP's helps. Sam

Ok, so I'm at stumped, maybe someone has an idea:
I have a W7 x64 box that I reloaded recently. I loaded the ATI drivers and the SDK... firing up CGMiner, it mines just fine. However, when I q out of CGminer, W7 will BSOD with a SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION in atikmdag.sys. I've Googled the hell out of it and tried all the suggestions and nothing seems to work.
Anyone?
Did you find this article? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff558949%28v=vs.85%29.aspxI would run Spinrite on the drive. Sam
