Well done, Claymore. The only thing missing so far is e-mail notification.
Or may be, I am wrong, and you have this option too? Couldn't find it anyway.

I'll try to add it in next update.

Is there source for Linux users?

@ Claymore

I updated to v3.3 from a previous 3.x version and was no longer able to mine due to failing to create a big buffer.  I was forced to revert to v 1.2 to resolve the issue as any other builds replicate the problem.  Absolutely no changes were made to the system in question; all I did was close the previously working miner and updated the directory's contents. All environment variables have been set as well as 2 x 8 GB pagefiles and I've also removed temp files as well as the dag directory which I additionally decided to provide an alternate one on a seperate hard drive to hopefully eliminate the problem.  I also tried renaming the dag files successfully created by QTminer in hopes of using them with yours but that also didn't work. My other rig is also Hawaii-based and surprisingly doesn't suffer from this symptom.  I just gave v4.0 a try but it still introduces the same error.

Any feedback would be much appreciated!

v3.3 takes may be 10-20 more GPU memory, that's the only difference between previous versions. You even did not mention what cards are used, how much RAM etc.

I'm clueless as to why all versions excluding v1.2 fail to create a big buffer despite the fact that they were previously working prior to updating to v3.3. I did mention that the rig in question is seated with a Hawaii-based GPU, more precisely a reference Sapphire 290x operating on Windows 7 x64, Intel Pentium D w/ 2 x 2GB RAM although only 3.25 GB are usable.  I can send you my log along with any other information deem it necessary.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Hope my .02 can help with your issue,

Just my gut here but I'm betting you're running out of system memory(ram) when attempting to mine. I just checked one of my single card rigs and it's using 3GB of Ram while running a ETH miner.

...could try setting a huge pagefiles but this doesn't completely substitute ram in Windows.

I've already done so but thanks for your advice nonetheless!

I'm guessing my memory controller hub can only allocate up to 3.25GB of memory.  I inspected the motherboard's bios in hopes of finding an option which would allow me to remove RAM reserved for GPU but none was available.

I exhausted every possible solution which crossed my mind.

I've been getting around 2000mh. which according to this calculator: http://decred-calc.cryptohub.info/ should give me about 1.40 dcr. i'm getting around 1.10. is this normal? is it something to do with dual mining? i've changed to supernova, and same thing... is it the calculator? thx

Try WIN 8.1 instead of 7 in order to use all your RAM. I hope lack of RAM is the key to your problem.

That is true only to Windows 7 32-bit but as I'm using the 64 bit-one, I'm almost certain it's due to my motherboard's chipset.

I'm very reluctant to go to that extent since I doubt it's the cause of the problem given all versions which I've updated to were previously working just fine and v1.2 still does.  I already wasted a few hours re-creating dag files for all versions above v1.2 in hopes of getting them to work again and really can't afford any further downtime especially if I end up having to revert to Windows 7.

Could you have by accident installed 32bit windows?  I know you said it's x64 but it sounds like you're pressing that 4gb limit (~3.25gb addressable)

I can confirm it is indeed x64 via the Control Panel's basic system information.  I have the same distro installed on two other rigs, one of which is an Intel Bad Axe 2 seating 1 390x, 1 290x & 1 290 w/ 2 x 1 GB + 2 x 2GB where all 6GB are properly allocated and the other from vague recollection is an Asus P5b also on socket 775 with 2 x 2GB where only 3.25GB is usable as indicated in the motherboard's manual.

Have tried v4.0 - very good! Hashrate is the same v3.2 or v3.3, maybe even more.
R9 270 ~ 14Mh/s
7950 ~ 18,5 - 19,5Mh/s depends on model
R9 280x ~ 21Mh/s

But have experience with one issue - can't set -cclock or -mclock values - the miner crashes. AMD Driver 15.12, 4 Gb RAM, 16GB swapfile, 5x R9 270 2 Gb. I would attach screenshots but I have localized version of Windows 7 x64. In logfile is no usefull info.

I'll most certainly take another look at the bios precisely for render standby & deep render standby.  There is no option to disable internal graphics or anything else for that matter as the bios is very basic.  I also assumed that could have accounted for the 768MB which I cannot allocate to the oS but I do have PEG highlighted which should also disable internal graphics if selected.

Thanks for your advice!

Could you humor me for a sec and run cpu-z to see what kind of processor you're running?  Just a quick search on the pentium d and there are conflicting answers that some pentium d's are only 32 bit capable.  (also the p5b should be able to handle 8gb of ram) You can install a 64 bit OS on a 32bit only processor.  I've done it on accident, I put W7 x64 on my dell mini 9 and it worked for what I needed it to do.  If your processor is 32bit that would answer the 2 problems, 3.25gb of available ram and not being able to run this 64bit miner.

Some intel chipsets from 775 era show less ram if you install more pci devices like more graphics cards.  Try to boot only with one graphics card and see if it's only 3.25gb or 3.66, 3.75...

I built a new rig with only 2GB of ram and it wouldn't start anyways, just wondering what the point of the DAG loading only on GPU is ?

Could you humor me for a sec and run cpu-z to see what kind of processor you're running?  Just a quick search on the pentium d and there are conflicting answers that some pentium d's are only 32 bit capable.  (also the p5b should be able to handle 8gb of ram) You can install a 64 bit OS on a 32bit only processor.  I've done it on accident, I put W7 x64 on my dell mini 9 and it worked for what I needed it to do.  If your processor is 32bit that would answer the 2 problems, 3.25gb of available ram and not being able to run this 64bit miner.

I'll get back to you as soon as I can.  I run multiple 64-bit applications on this sytem and like I have said many times now, if this would truly be the issue, I would have never been able to use it in the first place.


Could you have by accident installed 32bit windows?  I know you said it's x64 but it sounds like you're pressing that 4gb limit (~3.25gb addressable)

Some intel chipsets from 775 era show less ram if you install more pci devices like more graphics cards.  Try to boot only with one graphics card and see if it's only 3.25gb or 3.66, 3.75...

The 290x is the only GPU present in this system.

I built a new rig with only 2GB of ram and it wouldn't start anyways, just wondering what the point of the DAG loading only on GPU is ?

If the DAG is stored in the hard disk, it might be corrupted by certain operations. That is the reason for the on card DAG.
