Hi all,
I have 3 ATI 5770 Juniper GPUs in in a Win7 64-bit system. All 3 are detected and properly running in device manager, but when I try to use mining software, only 1 card is seen. This is a new phenomenon. There was a time when all 3 were detected. Then it went down to 2. Now just the 1. It doesn't appear that there are any driver updates that have come down (as the drivers are dated back to 2011). I've tried using guiminer & ufasoft.

Any suggestions?

need to check log of miners to see if one GPU locked up, because it will disable the GPU the next time you restart, and then check to see if the 2nd GPU locked up or hung up. That would explain how the cards are there but the miner doesn't see them. check in /BAMT/CONTROL/ACTIVE/ see what files are in there for the GPU that are missing.

I don't think I'm following. I don't have a directory or file called BAMT. I found guiminer's log file, but I'm not sure what I should be looking for.

Um. Am I missing something? Or do I need to compile cgminer from source to install it?

I have been diligently RTFMing for compiling cgminer, but at the part where you first start to build the miner (after downloading and installing all the dependencies and source code and whatnot), I get the following error:
Code:
The Joey-O@Mr_Compy ~/cgminer-2.7.4
$ adl.sh
/bin/adl.sh: /bin/adl.sh: cannot execute binary file

Now, when I first typed that command, I got an error saying something along the lines of: no such file exists. So, I went down to the "Optional - See Below" section mentioned in the WindowsBuild.txt file. I then followed those directions. I closed out the command line interface and opened it again, just in case. Tried the command adl.sh again, and got the above mentioned error.

Suggestions?

Yeah. I read through the readme about Windows builds. I don't see anything about that .sh file.

Still not getting anywhere with the cgminer .sh issue. I tried using the "File" command to see what info I can get on the adl.sh file, and this is what I got:
Code:
The Joey-O@Mr_Compy ~
$ cd cgminer-2.7.4

The Joey-O@Mr_Compy ~/cgminer-2.7.4
$ adl.sh
/mingw/bin/adl.sh: /mingw/bin/adl.sh: cannot execute binary file

The Joey-O@Mr_Compy ~/cgminer-2.7.4
$ file adl.sh
adl.sh: ERROR: cannot open `adl.sh' (No such file or directory)

Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

in ~/cgminer-2.7.4     dir

see if it list files
look for adl.sh or ADL as directory. If not you dont have it installed/installed correctly. check that and get back to us.

Use CGMiner.. Problems will likely just go away when you switch.

http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/2.7/cgminer-2.7.0-win32.zip


download that file
unzip that file to a directory cgminer  (remember where)
go to that dir in windoze, look for cgminer.exe file
right click on cgminer.exe look for "send to" click "desktop" click
close window
look on desktop for ICON named shortcut to cgminer
double click on that




and then get back to us.
