Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

If anyone can get this working with Nicehash miner I'll give you .05 BTC.

Already sent you a pm a while ago :p Willing to help you and i don't need btc. No worries!

It'd rather not do it using a virtual desktop. With it blue screening it would be a pain anyway.

The blue screen definitely has something to do with the auto switching portion and not sgminer itself.  It only blues screens when I run the runme.bat or when I try to benchmark or mine using nicehashminer.exe.

If I run sgminer using my own bat file it doesn't crash but it goes to a black CMD window after showing version info.

The nicehash site shows a miner connected but 0 accepted 0 rejected.

The log file of sgminer show it starting up but not doing anything.

BFGminer does run but I never get any accepted but it does show info and not just a black window after version info.

So I might have 2 problems. 1) Nicehash miner Blue screens. 2) SGminer doesn't display anything after the version info but also doesn't mine.

I have the latest ATI drivers installed but I have tried to install 15.7.1.

I installed the latest APP SDK.

I've tried older versions of SGminer.

I'm not sure what else to try. Maybe if I can get it even working with another miner program so I at least know its working correctly. My problem is I have no idea of what switches to put in the bat files. I know the card works good because I've tried playing ARK Survival and Skyrim.





No problem, just want to help out.

Have you tried mining Ethereum?

Does that work?

You already tried to use the stock sgminer with stock kernel/binaries right?

put your runme.bat and *.conf file @ paste bin or so and show it here.


But your issues are driver issues or something i think.

Try ethereum first. you can find a windows version @  cryptomining-blog.

Let me know how it went.

Ok, started trying Ethereum. I ran nanopool-ocl.bat and it started getting some sort of DAG? I think it's working. Started getting a wallet set up. Wow, Ethereum really isn't user friendly yet. But It's syncing. I should have more info soon.

Edit: It's happily mining away.

miner  16:17:04|main  Mining on PoWhash #19f23f26ΓǪ : 19141414 H/s = 21495808 hashes / 1.123 s

Edit2: So far so good with Eth. http://nanopool.org/account/0x15157f03bbda019f0844d8d1f605cb7de9f33d90

Edit3: I also tried many different versions of sgminer. old, new and custom. I used the same bat file for all of them.

Code:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1

::sgminer --help

sgminer -k x13mod -o stratum+tcp://x13.usa.nicehash.com:3337 -u 172dGNZU2zwpyCDRzAfu7ypDtc7ZfUXC3U -p x

Ok that's good, you're doing 21Mhz, which is good. you'll earn something now Smiley

Anyhow, that's good, you're able to mine "something" Smiley

Still have no clue why sgminer is being so stubborn over there.

it would help if i could see what's exactly happening.

could you show me your .bat and .conf file info?

paste it here inside a

Ok i changed some small things, try "this".
It's X11, the stock btc address is still in the .conf file, change that if you don't want to mine for someone else Smiley

Just tested it over here and works fine. Scan with Virustotal first before you run it. Never trust anyone here Smiley

Good luck!

I'll have to work on this one. I'll see if I can set up a test machine or figure out how to install display drivers in a virtualbox environment. Can you PM me the changes that were made?

3D as in Skyrim? or 3D as in stereoscopic 3D? If you mean games like Skyrim then yes. I've been playing Skyrim and Ark Survival Evolved, both on max settings.

Also. I let Ethereum miner run all night and it ran fine. 20.5 Mhs average.

Ok on a testmachine, but not in a virtual box environment, bad idea.

I just did some cleanup for the batch and the config file.

Just download it, and try it on your machine where you have issues.

And if you don't trust me, run it through virus total first.

I'd love to give it a try but it's being flagged left and right as a virus. Windows 10 won't even let me view the .bat file (I've never even see it do that before). Wouldn't it be easier to just paste the bat and config files in a code box? I have many different versions of sgminer. I'm sure I have the one you were working with.

What about the power consumption? Is that lower than 280X? What are your settings?

You're right, Chrome flags it. IE doesn't.

The problem was apparently some leftover stuff from previous driver installations. It was suggested to me to use Guru 3D Uninstaller then reinstall the drivers and that got it working. I'm still having minor issues but I should be able to tackle those. Thanks.
