Can someone tell me which would be a better coin to mine right now, memory coin or Ripple XRP?  Could someone post a link to a chart that shows the prices for the different coins? 

Yes, I’m a newbie at this and terrible at math. :O

How are people mining at full and being able to use their system?  I'm running an I-5 running at 4.4ghz with 12 gigs of ram.  OS windows 7 64 bit ultimate.  Running av-2 w/ 1024 per thread (that's the max supported anyway per thread).  If I run all 4 cores my system cannot be used for anything else.

Thanks itskik78.  I'll give it a shot over there.

Hello folks,

I have been having a real bear of a time getting huge pages to work with the miner.  Running I-5 3570 Ivy Bridge.  overclocked to 4.4 ghz.  8 gigs of ram.  Windows 7 64 bit ultimate.  

Error message is as follows (see below in more detail)

Can not allocate hugepages memory, error=1450
Warning: MemoryCoin2 memory block for thread 2 allocated in non-hugepages memory

Running yam-yvg1900-M7m-win64-ivy-bridge.  Running memory coin wallet 0.8.583.0 unk-beta.  I like it better than the standalone since I can jump to that webpage where it gives my mmc stats.  

yam-mmc.cfg settings are:

threads = 3
mining-params = mmc:av=0&aesni=on&m=3072
mine = getwork://MDLTQ29J7BHuxfkBV6JsfMTY5exun7SKcn@work.mmcpool.com:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc

Running three threads instead of four threads because with four I can't work at all on my system.  I just upgraded my system ram from 4 to 8 gigs. I've tried changing memory settings to 512 but program says it's too small and minimum needs to be 1024 per thread.  I tried going above 3072 and got the same error message (1024 per thread).

I googled this:

https://www.google.com/#q=how+to+enable+large+page+support+in+windows+7+

went into this link:

To enable the lock pages in memory option

    On the Start menu, click Run. In the Open box, type gpedit.msc.

    The Group Policy dialog box opens.

    On the Group Policy console, expand Computer Configuration, and then expand Windows Settings.

    Expand Security Settings, and then expand Local Policies.

    Select the User Rights Assignment folder.

    The policies will be displayed in the details pane.

    In the pane, double-click Lock pages in memory.

    In the Local Security Policy Setting dialog box, click Add.

    In the Select Users or Groups dialog box, add an account with privileges to run sqlservr.exe.


Foofoobean (my pc) was already set as a user.  I also added "everyone" as a user.  I tried adding "users" but that didn't work.  Then I rebooted and tried again.  Same error message as above.

My HPM right now is around 6.5.  I'm hoping with hugepages enabled  I will get higher output.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
