I'm trying to mine ETH on my HD 6950 but get the error, that the DAG can't be created in one piece.
One solution should be setting "export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=95" - but I don't know how / where to set this?

I use QtMiner on my Windows 7 64 Bit System - where can I set the GPU Max Alloc?

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

You create a .bat file, and put in these

etx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1

qtminer -G  -s eu1.ethpool.org:3333 -u 0x2address.rig1

 Same process works for ANY miner under Windows.

 It is done via a .BAT file because this is a Windows Environment configuration variable, and you need it set before you try to run the program that needs that variable (setting it WHILE a program is running doesn't work as the program only checks for the variable when the program initiates under normal circumstances).

 It's POSSIBLE to have the program change it and then use it, but it's a TON easier to just put it in a .bat file.

I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!
