This is ridiculous.

There wasn't even a message or anything to tell me why the reply button had vanished.

How am I going to trade with others in the marketplace now?

This forum just became useless for new posters.
2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Will pay bitcoins for help! Computer restarts using pool mining. on: April 20, 2011, 08:03:58 AM
Hi, I'm new to this...when I try to run the gui for pool mining...

my GPU quickly goes from 40 degrees C to 65, my screen goes to standby, and then the computer restarts itself, I assume to protect my hardware from damage.  Just wondering how I can fix this and start generating bitcoins with my GPU.

Am willing to pay someone some bitcoins to help me  ???this working.

I've tried setting fan speed to 100% but that doesn't stop it.


See link below for a  pic my GPU specifications and stuff.

hmm, maybe a driver/SDK issue, try to reinstall those (i'd recommend to use SDK2.1/2.2 instead of 2.3).


Ok, thanks I will try this.

you're currently mining on your CPU,
in the miner GUI, click on Device (where it currently says "AMD Athlon...") and choose your GPU (device 1 instead of 0),
that should do the trick.


Hi, that would make sense, but when I click the drop down menu there aren't any other options??

Hi, I'm very new to this kind of thing and am trying to get the best possible Mhash/s using my GPU.

I followed the directions on this forum and got the Gui installed, made an account on bitcoin pool and got everything working, except I'm only getting 2.6MHash/s with this, which is about as much as I was getting just using my CPU with bitcoin.

The hardware comparison list says I should be getting 150Mhash/s + with my GPU - ATI Radeon HD 5770.

I'm probably making some basic mistake somewhere but I'm not computer smart enough to find it, any advice would be much appreciated.

please see pictures for my specifications and setup. ( I tried uploading them here but it said the upload folder was full)
