in case anyone interested, heres the dude (sp) who makes a private nvidia spreadminer (for small donation)
further back in this thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1045373.msg15032256#msg15032256i myself have been using the standard spreadminer with my 2 750ti's.
set it and forget it. very stable 1.45mh per card for past 8 months.(no oc)
only downside is it makes my netflix streaming a little herky jerky, so shut it off during.
good luck to all and may the mining force be with you.
Here is my workaround for "PC(win) not available while mining" issue:
Start mining with a batch like this:
:loop
spreadminer -o 73.147.1.188:41677 -R 5 -u username -p password -x 8
timeout 1800
goto loop
Then create a bat (mine is kill-mining.bat) file that has:
taskkill /F /IM spreadminer.exe
taskkill /F /IM ethminer.exe
taskkill /F /IM EthDcrMiner64.exe
pause
Feel free to add a line for all other miners you might use.
"pause" at the end is optional - just to make sure a process has been terminated
Create a shortcut of the kill file to your win start menu (by dragging the bat file on the menu, and dropping it at the very top).
Now you can do WIN-DOWN-ENTER
(press "WIN start menu" key on your keyboard, arrow down and ENTER)
(Or you can set up a keyboard shortcut for the file shortcut and use it instead)
(It is so simple it will even work with any PC remote you might be using - if your PC is also HTPC, or you watch netflix, etc)Your mining will stop for 1800secs or whatever you set it to.
That way you won't forget to start mining again when you are done working on your PC.
Or if you want to resume mining before the 1800s are over then just press a key in the mining window.
I also use TrayIt! to minimize mining window(s) in the systray (where your clock resides).
I love TrayIt, since it kind of "integrates" and you forget about it - just right click on a window's "X" and it goes in the tray.
I wonder if such a meticulous description for such a simple thing will still need more clarification...
