anyone have any problems with the miner not hashing any shares. It did for a few days but now, just shows new blocks. No change to my bat file and I've tried all the miner software (cpuminer/cgminer/bfgminer). They all produce no shares, but also, no errors...
Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks!
Screams of comm port FIFO overflow errors, to me.
First, turn off your miners. Reset time!
Fire up the 12V first - wait 1 minute at least.
Fire up the USB 5V power - wait for green and red lights to start flashing.
Reset each comm port either by menu (right click - reset) or manually by unplugging and re-plugging in each USB port one at a time waiting for an ack' from the PC that it's been recognized and loaded.
IF you can't soft-reset each port, unplug all ports manually, then start plugging them in one at a time waiting for an ack' as above.
Try resetting your STM comm port/s (or what ever driver) FIFO's to the following settings.
Transmit buffer to (14)
Try that first, see if shares start being submitted again.
If you are submitting shares but they keep losing comm every few to several hours,
try resetting the Receive buffer to (
This worked for me and my pods have been in comm with the pool over a day now ...no issues X-my fingers. Ran all night and through the day without any comm / completed work 'yay' submissions.
One other thing to try is make sure your USB ports are not set by WindBlow$ power saver to shut down at any time.
Cut off this feature so it never causes a disconnect. I believe the option you want is 'never'.
Make sure the PC runs stably and never tries to sleep or go idle - unless you're using an external controller in which case none of this may apply. This is primary for USB but, buffers are buffers. All comm ports use them from one degree to another.
Try this stuff and see what happens.
Good luck!
As always, try this stuff at your own risk!Wolfey2014
Pea Ess, I presume you are not attempting to overclock higher than 850.
If so, you may want to try a lower speed (600 default) until you square away the other issues.
Do not exceed 850MHz - it's become known as the best average overclock performance the miners can do.
Gewed luck!
Thanks for these things to check. I'll let you know if one of them works for me. I'm not at the location so can try everything but unplugging them for now.
