lots of shit
Your config file would be nice to know, as well as any modifications to your phoenix (i dont recall being able to label vid cards like that, mine only show like [cl:1:1]) Also may I suggest using driver 11.12 or 12.1 (avoids cpu bug with multiple gpu) as well as installing 2.1 sdk and mining on that instead of 2.5 (gain 3-10mhash per gpu depending on number of shaders and core/mem frequencies) Can get 2.1 SDK standalone @ http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9768004/ATIStreamSDK_dev.msiAlso have you tried other pools? I see you got disconnected from a server, might be a pool or isp problem. Eligius has been rock solid for me last few months, you can test it by connecting your miner to http://address:x@mining.eligius.st:8337 where "address" is your bitcoin address. Doesn't require a signup or fee or anything, just change your backend and good to go. Mine is backend = http://1CxcPP8FVktppy4PHTYJKnZFqQeyZ3jArb:x@mining.eligius.st:8337 |

The one on the left isn't too bad and it is used for misc I/O which doesn't get to hot. The one in the middle powers the "left" GPU core. You have a huge hole torn out of the pad. It has to be replaced.
Also you got a lot of TIM residue on the two GPU cores. Give it another splash of Cleaner #1 and some fresh qtips and you can get it spotless.
May I suggest a soft bristle brush too? Some TIM gets stuck between the tiny resistors, and if you're anal like me, it's really bothersome unless the entire GPU chip is clean. |

THIS IS ALL IRRELEVANT! FIXED BY RUNNING A REPAIR INSTALL OF MY 2.6 SDK! I don't actually use that SDK, but apparently it was important to have.What can cause this error? I just fresh installed my win7 on an x79 chipset board and 3930K CPU, same radeon 5870 though. this is my cfg. [general]

[web]
disable = true this is the error.  there are definately kernels in my plugins folder, I just download it fresh and it still wont work. help? Is there a 'kernels' folder at the dir where phoenix.exe is located? Hasn't been a kernels folder since RC2, Its now "plugins". I can literally copy a working phoenix from one of my miners to this new computer, open phoenix, and get that exact error. FWIW, renaming "plugins" to "kernels" jsut causes an entirely different error. [04/11/2012 04:25:06] Welcome to Phoenix v2.0.0

So nobody knows how to fix my problem? :/ I fresh installed on my last platform (evga 790i sli ultra, intel Q9550 @ 3.6ghz, 8gb ram) and it worked right away. Everything is identical except for cpu, motherboard, and ram (and associated hardware drivers) and it keeps saying "failed to load plugin 'opencl', failed to load plugin 'phatk2'" no matter what. my current hardware is an intel 3930K @ 4.7ghz, 64GB RAM, and MSI big bang xpower II (x79 chipset).
Anyone know how to fix my problem without reverting to previous hardware or switching OS? Currently use win7 x64 ult

I'm getting very high CPU usage (20-25%) pretty evenly split between the four cores of a 2500k using Phatk2 and Phoenix2 mining with a single 6870. Any ideas what could cause that?
your driver. use a known driver/sdk combo that doesn't exhibit cpu bug. cpu bug is not a problem of the miner. i use 11.12 or 12.1, and 2.1 SDK, but 2.4/2.5/2.6 should work too. no cpu bug on single/multi gpu. It's driver version 12.3 with SDK 2.5. I didn't notice the excessive CPU usage under the old version, I'll have to check into it again. 12.3 definitely has CPU bug. 12.1 definitely does NOT have CPU bug. Not sure about 12.2, havent used yet. |

5830 @ 1030/205 phatk2 WORKSIZE = 128, BFI_INT = true, VECTORS = true, AGGRESSION = 12 with SDK 2.1 = 334.7 Mhash. With 2.5 SDK without GOFFSET is 329.5 MHash. With GOFFSET = true with 2.5 SDK 329.8MHash. SDK 2.1 still king.  Didn't use GOFFSET for 2.1 SDK because it's OpenCL 1.0, not 1.1. Doesn't affect hashes either. edit: GOFFSET isn't used in phatk2, so hash rates are likely within error. I tried with OpenCL kernel and 2.5 SDK and with/without GOFFSET and didn't see a difference between with and without, though it did has at about 309.5 mhash. |

Clicked it, it's an empty thread, won't let me post to it. OP = troll?

To have coil whine you need a coil and those are in your PSU.
Goes to show this guy doesn't know SHIT about computers. Anyways, coil whine isn't harmful to your hardware. It's just an annoying sound. Deal with it (live with it or RMA) |

I has the fix. You need to add a registry file. I had the same problem. I am searching for the file now. Nvm. Just read you fixed it.
whats the registry file? give us the fix |

I purchased one of these form newegg a few weeks ago, it was in mint condition and worked like a champ.
Since I moved all of my good cards to a dedicated rig this became my gamer/miner card that I put to work while sleeping, been running nightly at about 280 G/h since I bought it, QUIET!!! and error free.
280 gigahash? I'll pay $2000 for that card right now. |

Each "display enabled" device, be that in a configuration explicitly, or just by attaching it to a monitor, is seen as an opencl device. OpenCL is too stupid to tell apart 2 physical devices from one physical device attached to 2 monitors.
Naybe, but this is irrelevant to his situation. [02/04/12 17:30:47] Using AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing OpenCL 1.1 AMD-APP (851.4) [02/04/12 17:30:52] Using ATI Stream OpenCL 1.0 ATI-Stream-v2.1 (145) This is clearly a case of 2 installed SDK's. |

So I grabbed an MSi K9A2 CF v2 for $45, and bought a CPU on newegg for $20. I have a power supply on it's way as well. I will be running (3) 5830's on this rig. Although I ran into a slight problem... How the heck do you start a Motherboard without the Case's Power/Restart button? I assume I would have to hot wire those little JFP1/2 pins to start the computer up. Would I need any resistors, diodes, etc? Or would simply connecting two pins together with a small wire work?
Just touch the PWRBTN pins with a screwdriver, no need to keep them connected. Hold for 4 sec if you need to hard-shutdown the machine. Awesome! I was hoping it would be that simple. In the bois enable "Wake on power loss" then all you have to do it plug it in to get it to turn on. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BOOOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

You have both 2.1 SDK and some other SDK installed. Looks like 2.6 SDK, which is bad for radeon 5xxx. You need to specify manually what "devices" you want to mine on. You will want to mine on 2.1 sdk though because it is the most efficient for 5xxx

Thing is, if it ain't broken, don't fix it. Why would I ever "upgrade" to a dodgy driver/SDK if the ones I use now are proven to be the fastest and most reliable of all? The latest isn't always the greatest. 11.12/12.1 and 2.1 forevah.

Im using the 12.3 WHQL driver, still able to underclock memory to 200 Mhz (optimal speed), Core Clock is now at 1020 Mhz
hashing away at 457 Mhash/s on my single 6970 using vectors (77 degrees Celsius for temperature)
Also I'm using full release OpenCL 1.2 driver, but the only difference I noticed is more stability. Used to have my core clock at 1015 Mhz
What hashrates is everyone else getting that are so bad with new drivers?
I get zero because I refuse to use any sdk other than 2.1 |

Jedi, could you please push a windows build with the fix to allow 2.1 sdk to work with the newest phoenix beta? i've been stuck with rc1 for a long time, and I had to format to allow booting off ssd, but now my miner while using 2.1 sdk won't create shares (either accepted or rejected, nothing) even though it shows it hashing and my gpu temperature goes up. 5 minutes with no shares and 450mhash is not the result of randomness, its a bug :/
I also deleted all .elfs in the phatk2 plugins folder to make it recompile.
I need more information to isolate the problem. Please test RC2 with the kernels from RC1. I need to know if the problem is at the kernel level or something else. You already fixed it though IIRC, you just never made a windows build for the fix. That's part of the kernel, so it's drop-in compatible with RC2. Just replace the original __init__.py with the latest version from the repo. Would that work for phatk2 kernel? I see its in the opencl folder and not phatk2 folder, so I don't know if they are compatible with each other.Edit: Never mind. I chose to not question you and update it anyways, and lo and behold its hashing away on 2.1 sdk. Thanks. Too bad I didn't realize this over a month ago. Sorry for wasting your time <.< |
