Read my mind, just had to restart the instance in interactive in order to watch an episode of HIMYM. But like you said its a thing that's just for convience.

2 questions:

1) I have a NVidia 660TI, all works fine. If I run it on a machine with NVidia GT 530, it gets overheated and shuts down. Is there a setting that the graphic card get's not that much heat?

2) when i run cudaminer after I played a game, it crashes (no error message). When I reboot the machine, cudaminer works fine again. Is there a way to "reset" the graphic cardf without rebooting? Or a setting for cudaminer to reset all graphic card settings maybe?

Allright, today I found two consecutive Yacoin blocks in a row.

Block 378923

Block 378924

to the Moon!

Just 160 or so more confirmations until they mature...

With my 3.35 KH/s is it better to solo mining or mining in pool ?

0 blocks for me under 15 hours @ 4,3 kH/s.

Go to your Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin folder and rename or relocate cvtres.exe and do the same with another cvtres.exe under Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin\amd64, then run Visual Studio 2010 and try compiling.

If it doesn't work, just change everything back.

Yes, interactive mode is on when i use my pc, but i change it off when i go to sleep.

But anyway, cudaminer is awesome!

Ps. if you know how to get more out of my card, tell me..

I'm pretty happy with the latest cudaminer.

I get 136 khash/s with my asus gtx 650 Ti 1gb and maxed out with gpu tweak 174 khash/s. I got win 8.1.

When i tried some other miner when i started mining at first it was like 60-70 khash/s but luckily i found cudaminer and best settings for it.

First i used auto tune couple of times and noe i use this: -H 0 -d 0 -i 1 -l K12x16 -m 1
I use interactive mode at daytime and disable it at nigth and my pc i still some how usable in non-interactive mode.

Excuse me, but since when is asking for help with something that isn't working properly considered whining?

I've read the past few pages, I've read the documentation, and the autotune comes up with a different value every time I try it. The version from 12/1/2013 does not exhibit the problem of not utilizing the full GPU power, but unfortunately gives a lower hash rate. Something has changed in the newer versions that causes the program not to fully engage the GPU at times, inexplicably.

It amazes me how little help I've been offered here. I've posted several times, always polite, asking for assistance. What am I supposed to do, lie and say it is working fine for me, even when it isn't? How ridiculous.

Free or not, this utility is being offered as a potential solution for mining on Nvidia cards. All I'm trying to do is get a little assistance so I cant get it working for me as well as it seems to be working for others.

Asking for help is not whining. Insisting that all comments be gleaming endorsements of how wonderful something is, by implying that anything less than that is "whining" is beyond unfair and unreasonable.

Certainly there must be a way to make it use more than 25 to 35% of the GPU power? It's almost useless at that speed. I only get speeds above 100 kh/s randomly when I try it out on a pool, and I have to keep restarting it when I see gpu usage top out at a grand 35%. There's got to be something in the code (or missing from the code) that is preventing it from using all the resources available to the gpu every time it is run. I have my gpu set to always remain at the same max clock speed now, it doesn't throttle, and cudaminer still only uses 35% most of the time unless i restart it a dozen times and hope it randomly chooses to actually use the gpu.

I realize the software is free, but you are claiming it helps with mining on nvidia cards. I just want to come up with a config for my 4GB GTX 670 that gives me consistent, reasonable results, and uses at least *most* of the gpu power available to it.

This is up and until commit 82. It's built for Windows (32 bit executable, runs under x64). Please note that I didn't get any valid results with this version and my Fermi card though!
I don't know why, but output looked like this:

Startparameter:
D:\bitcoin\yacoin\test>cudaminer.exe -a scrypt-jane -i 1 -l F12x1 -o http://yac.coinmine.pl:8882 -O username.2:password -C 2


https://www.dropbox.com/s/0yfhgko6iodecxa/commit82_32bit.rar

i run it, and just on the first hash attempt the driver crashes and recovers, then it carries on

ok so i had everything installed, can not for the life of me figure out how to clone the git so i am going to give up lol

My hashrate should be similar to that of the 780ti as its tue same rough performance and memory. So 3.2kh/s plus I could stick my cpu working if power is less on the gpu

If I can find a pool I will try it. Maybe cbuchner1 has a better pool as he is testing his hash rates I believe?

Just found yac.coinmine.pl
Seems to have some good reviews and 0% invalid. Do I need to do anything to the last official zip file to mine them?

Do I need to compile from github or just use what I have now? And what settings would I need to set? Worth a try to see how many I can get this early on in the coins life

Cudaminer doesn't do SHA256, only scrypt

What is a command line to enable my card to watch HD 1080p movies while mining with cudaMiner, without lagging in the movies?

The mining aggressiveness should be very low

I should be able to play games too while mining
