1  Other / Beginners & Help / is there any point in getting to 5 posts on: June 16, 2013, 08:56:13 AM
I can't justify getting more hardware (I recently got a 7950), and with mining rewards going down, down, down, and the difficulty soon to rise, it looks like I'm soon going to have to give up mining before I even get to 5 forum posts mark  Cry
2  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Catalyst 13.6 on: June 15, 2013, 09:28:43 AM
I'm on Windows 8x64.  I've only had success mining with  13.1; 13.2; 13.3.  Otherwise, 13.4 and 13.6 cause me to get  "check hardware" errors with guiminer, and cgminer simply crashes.

Here's what I do. I use driver fusion to scrap "everything" and start fresh.  I install SDK 2.6 (a stand alone package).  Next I install my catalyst 13.3, and I'm successful. Did the same thing with 13.4 an 6 this time, no success.. Something has changed and it's a bad thing for bitcoin miners.

Here's what I noticed, if I install cat 13.3 as is, it fails to mine.  I MUST install the SDK 2.6 package first before the cat drivers.  Did cat 13.4 and 6 alone as well, then tried it with SDK 2.6 with no results.  It looks very bad for us.

I'm using guiminer on Windows8 x64 too
I installed the 13.6 drivers with SDK 2.8 - works ok with my 7950, but can't connect at all with my GTS 450

Hi - I'm using Guiminer (with 2 miners), on Slush's pool, and I would like to know if there is a "best time" to stop mining (e.g. for a reboot) ?
