1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v9.5 (Windows/Linux) on: June 13, 2017, 02:38:52 PM
Sooooo was Claymore hacked last night (UK time)? Connection dropped on mine and my housemate's rigs for about 15 mins, we were getting the failed to connect, retrying after 20s error. Since then, for the past 8 hours, my Ether balance has not increased.
CLAYMORE GOT HACKED CONFIRMED! Nice first post!
/s

Claymore is hacked by tons of newbies. Attacked by them in PM too. Maybe I need to create another FAQ for newbies, but most of them will not read it.
Just some quick answers to recent questions:

1. If you think that the miner will mine even if you turn off the router, wait a couple of minutes more, it will stop.
2. Place all command line arguments in .BAT file in a single line. Arguments from the second line will be ignored.
3. Use latest version if you have problems with DCR or SIA.
4. I don't have any private versions with +50% speed.
5. I'm a software developer, so I think I cannot help you to build your mining rig properly or provide you with the list of necessary parts, please ask this question here on forum or search here, there are many threads related to hardware.
6. Please read Readme.txt or original post of this thread for command line samples, options description and FAQ.
7. I don't have miners for Tesla, IBM CPUs, Phi or for very old GPUs.
8. Mining on laptops is a bad idea.
9. You will not see full hashrate on pool immediately, you have to wait for 24 hours at least.
10. If miner cannot generate DAG file, check environment variables (see Readme), check if your GPU has 3GB memory at least, and check if you have enough virtual memory (pagefile). If all this does not help, try to install more physical RAM.

And sometimes I see really interesting messages. Recently I got PM from a newbie account, he found the issue with Pascal nonces from the log file. I was impressed.

LOL you are a legend dude. thanks for your work and please enjoy the 5 cents per day from my little operation... dont hack me pls

Hey guys, im only getting 12.6 mh/s with an r9 280x, it should be 20+... how can i ensure that the miner is using the crimson 15.12 that i installed? virtual memory is set to 16gb. mining ethereum only, with recommended initial settings.

WRONG - you're reading SUPER-outdated info. As I said earlier in the thread - GCN 1 devices suffer as the DAG increases in size... even though it can fit the whole DAG in its memory, due to the memory controller having issues with shit that big, I think. Your hashrate is as expected.... and it's only gonna get worse.

thanks, so what other cards would be susceptible to the same fate? other radeon 2xx series? 3xx?

i guess i might as well keep it running for now, though.

Is it still impossible to mine with cards with less than 2 GB video memory? looks like latest version of claymore miner no longer uses DAG files...
