Hey everyone. So I recently switched to mining BTC with cgminer from a year or so on phoenix 2.0 because of the built in overclocking and stratum support (whoo)
But I'm having some trouble getting it to start headless. I never was able to get phoenix to do this either but I've heard it's possible with cgminer.

Anways I've been using Windows 7 64-bit forever but if this is going to be a headache I can easily switch to Linux, I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced cgminer getting stuck on "Started cgminer 3.1" until a display is attached, HDMI cable is plugged in, etc...

After that it starts up within 10-15 seconds but until then it just hangs there, maybe I can somehow specify the devices I have in the *.conf so cgminer doesn't have to wait until the AMD drivers report the cards as online? Just speculating, thanks in advance!
