omg.. I forgot to turn off windows update..  what a mess.. I had to disconnect all cards.
..
fyi.. click on the lower left and type in 'services'.. and you will see "Windows Update".. disable it.   You can always update windows when you want.



If I want to update manual is that OK?  I just want disable auto update only.... I want keep manual update as it is very important :-)

4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / need help on Zcash4win backup restore detail.... on: December 07, 2017, 08:12:11 PM
Hi Guys....

I am using JAXX.IO wallet and I feel it is not safe...

I just installed Zcash4win and I want to transfer all my ZEC there and start using it as wallet for mining...

But I cannot find much information online which to tell the back / restore procedures ...

Anyone can tell me in detail??

Many Thanks :-)

Best Regards

Why,

there is a miner better than ewbf?

yea couple of them actually, DTSM's cuda miner and there is one other I cant recall the name of that I just saw coupld days ago

Bminer, another one that seems to be legit but still need to be monitored closely, seems to be equivalent to dtsm for 1070 series and less GPU's but better on 1080 series.

Cheers.

my 4790K 32GB Z170 system CPU usage always over 40% with this Bminer... and it is not stable.....
I quit and back to ZWBF....

ZWBF Bailed?? What happened???

A newby and a new miner ...... mmm...

I won't be using this for now, to much risk for a few more hash....



seems not virus... but it have very high CPU usage which make it seems abnormal....

how can it use over 40% on a 4790K CPU for just 3 X 1080TI??

the power consumption on the CPU cannot compensate the gain ..... and it is not stable too....

at home I have better performance than ewbf on my 1080.

but when I use it on my rig of 7x1070, the miner crashes after a few minutes and restarts, did you have this problem?

it seems faster than ewbf but see the stability.

me too... it is crashed on 3 X 1080ti Z170 system within 5 minutes....
and it used over 40% cpu power on my 4790K CPU with 32GB RAM....
While ZWBF used 2-3% only....

I do worry it have some hidden CPU mining program.... and I giveup and use back ZWBF already...

Tested it , Has the Hashrate boost as advertised but the cpu usage isn't worth it
Pc becomes unresponsive as the cpu in by mining rig is only single core and miner crashes
Things look brigher on my Regular Usage PC with a single card , Nice boost of around 10 -18%
Can't say much more for now as only have run it for around a hour , Switiching back to zcoin mining as the power usage of lyra2z algo is really less
anyways Good Work sir , Waiting for decrease in cpu usage

did you check any hidden CPU mining activities? :-)
I don't see many people using this miner yet... worry it have some backdoor Smiley

Hi,

Can anyone tell me what I should modify the mine.bat fiile??

@echo OFFREM Change the following address to your Zcash taddr.
SET ADDRESS=  
SET USERNAME=%ADDRESS%.w
SET POOL=asia1-zcash.flypool.org:3333
SET SCHEME=stratum
START "Bminer: When Crypto-mining Made Fast" bminer.exe -uri %SCHEME%://%USERNAME%@%POOL%

I am new...

What I should change username and Scheme???


At least you have to set the address and the pool. the username is just the address + worker name like in your example %ADDRESS%.w where %ADDRESS% is the address variable and ".w" is the workername. the SCHEME depends on your pool. If you use ssl then just change to "stratum+ssl" otherwise it is fine. But I would remove the "START" because otherwise you are unable to see any error when the miner stops, because it will open a new window.


Thanks for reply!

p.s. Could you tell me what I should add in the batch file?  If I want to use web browser to monitor it? I know I have to use the -api but I am not sure the syntax...

Thanks Smiley

Joe

I know I need to change my taddr and pool

Thanks for advance Smiley
