Thank you all, I've still not had any luck.  I'm going to try a few of those tips.  I just offered the $10 because I don't think its fair to ask for someone's expertise for nothing.  Also, thank you for the move to the correct forum.

I'm at my wits end on getting my first GPU rig going, i've spent about three nights working on it, and i'm at my wit's end.  I'm willing to pay $10 (in btc,ltc or xmr of course) to someone who can help me get it going.

The rig is assembled, and i've got some parts of XMRstak configured properly.  Two of the cards are plugged in, and they run.  But I'm not seeing their hash rate show up reliably when i query it.  Its almost like they are only getting instructions or shares intermittently. 

I recorded a little youtube vid to get the troubleshooting started https://youtu.be/jBDq2mb8r94

Probably the best way to contact me is by e-mail.   TVEB_007@hotmail.com
