i been mining ethereum for a couple weeks.. no issues.. just using the standard -G -F and the url.. i switched to the NH software a few days ago.. it uses some proxy thing, but it was working..
today a few hours ago my mining stopped.. it says..
Allocating/mapping single buffer failed with: clCreateBuffer(-61) GPU cant allocate DAG in a single chunk, Bailing.
i thought it might be the NH software so i tried to go back to regular ethminer.. but nope same error..
nothing has changed on the pc.. its running windows 10..
i had the catalyst 15.11 drivers installed.. but i tried going to the new 16.3 hotfix drivers and same thing..
my gpus are 2 r9 270X. i was getting around 34Mh/s with them.

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Use those before the ethminer
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

I couldn't even start mining it. Got the exact same error. Tried everything I could find. Started mining another coin to trade for eth.

can you explain what they do? especially those first two, i know about the other, but never heard about those, can i still play games for example after setting this, without problem i mean

ok 100% sure its not the computer.. i just tried my other computer.. this computer has 2 7970 gpus..
same error.. even tho i dont mine with that computer (it gets HOT) i have before and it ran just fine..
so something in the DAG changed today.. something my gpus dont like.

try adding --cl-extragpu-mem 0 to your command line. at some point it may require running the cards headless (no display). my fork has this defaulted to 0 since 1.0.6

where do i download 1.0.6 for windows? i am using 1.0.3 edit that worked.. back in business.. thanks ok so 0 isnt going to work, crash video driver.. i checked out what that does and it reserves gpu memory for windows? i am trying 16.. think i read it defaults 64? its MB? its been running a few minutes at 16, no crashes yet.

Same issue here. Got my 7870 running again with a bat file containing this: setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 set GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT = 100 ethminer -G -F http://poolstuff.com --cl-extragpu-mem 0 /offtopic. *me waves at genoil* (Hashrate is down from 15/16 to 10.5ish :S )

No those are only for sha256 algorithm coins like bitcoin.

Not sure if anything can be done about it.

Try this on the original ethminer without the extra mem flag setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 95 setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 95
And for the local work use 16384 for slighly higher hashrate
I tried the --cl-global-work 16384 --cl-local-work 64 and it gives higher result. But changing the 64 to 128 has no effect. Anybody notice that?
