SDK wont install - ATI Radeon HD 5870, Win 7 x64

[TehZomB]

Hi,
SDK won't install! In the install log it just says "AMD APP SDK.... Final Status: FAIL" and I can't figure out what to do. Any help? Thanks!

With this card you are way beyond ufasoft miner.
Remove all the drivers you installed.
Download ATI catalyst suite http://www2.ati.com/drivers/11-5_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_ocl.exe
Then download phoenix miner https://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=6458.0
and you should be all set to go. If you want to overclock/underclock your card, download MSI afterburner http://event.msi.com/vga/afterburner/download.htm

Not sure what this means...

try typing in the following

Code:

phoenix -u http://tehzomb_gpu2:********@btcguild.com:8332 -k poclbm DEVICE=0 VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=7

don't forget to replace ***** with your password

No good, i think it's something weird now as no other miners work. Maybe i need to reinstall python...

[mewantsbitcoins]

did you compile it yourself?

if you downloaded binaries you don't need anything
are you getting the same output?

[TehZomB]

No i didn't.

And yeah, it's the same output. Should I ask in phoenix' thread?

[mewantsbitcoins]

are you sure removed all previous drivers and then installed this http://www2.ati.com/drivers/11-5_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_ocl.exe ?
on the phoenix thead similar errors are caused by sdk not being installed

[TehZomB]

I looked at the logs, and next to SDK runtime it says "Final Status: Fail" but gives no solutions, and google isn't being very helpful. I checked my envars and they are all ok. Any idea?

[mewantsbitcoins]

Obviously sdk is at fault. The only solution I can think of is to uninstall it, reboot and try installing again.

[TehZomB]

I tried that, and I also tried installing the SDK seperate. no dice.

I'll rename the topic and change the OP to hopefully get some more help. Thanks for your effort

[mewantsbitcoins]

No problem. If you are after a particular miner, I'd suggest you try that miner's thead

[TehZomB]

Well - it appears it was a conflict with some old stale drivers I have now removed.

Thanks for all your help - again, and once I get some mining done I'll be sure to send you a tip
