Okay, I have two rigs set up -- one has four 7970s and the other has three. I have been mining for a couple of days now and each GPU was doing about 650 k/hash, but I have seen so many people mining at 750 with these, that I've been continuing to research what I can do.

I'm using CG miner 3.0 at the following settings:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 3

cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://ltc-stratum.kattare.com:3333 -u xxx -p xx --intensity 20 --thread-concurrency 24000 --gpu-engine 950 --gpu-fan 100
 
I tried adding in the following:

--shaders 2048 --gpu-memclock 2048

When I opened the batch file after that, my screen flashed to white and everything froze. I restart the rig and delete those settings and put them back to where they were, but the problem keeps happening.

Then, I did the same thing on my other rig (to see if it would do the same thing) and it did. Both rigs now flash to a white screen whenever I try to mine, despite having uninstalled and re/installed CGminer AND having the same settings that were working before.

Any idea on why this is happening or some other things I may be able to do in order to trouble shoot? I'm new at all this, but I'm pissed my rigs aren't mining now   Cry

--gpu-memclock 2048

That setting is trying to make CGMiner Overclock your GPU Memory from 1500MHz to 2048MHz. That's WAY to much of an OC. Mine tops out around 1800 or so, but YMMV. Get rid of that argument, and try it again. Also, delete your .BIN files, and use GPU-z Sensors tab to check your realtime clocks.
