I want to tell you about my experience today, well it might be helpful for those who experienced the same issue. My Windows 10 OS has been updated into the newest patch, thus made the AMD hashrate drop significantly. The workaround is straightforward. Press "y"-key at the initialization process to switch all cards to compute mode, reboot, and you are done!
can you please tell us what is the Windows version (build) you are writing about? (run-> winver -> )

If you don't believe it or don't get it, I don't have the time to try to convince you, sorry.

Hi I’ve been browsing these threads for a little before I posted but it is a lot to sift through. Having trouble with 14.7. Using AMD 19.4.3 all in compute mode. Whenever I put -strap 1 in start bat I get “driver is in use, try -driver uninstall”. I added driver uninstall but need to do it in administrator. I start in administrator but ethminer start.bat opens for like a split second and then closes. I’ve tried different drivers, added folder pathway to start.bat. I’m at a loss right now. If anyone knows PM me or post. I will pay PayPal also to the person who helps me solve this
Hi! You should run command prompt( Administrator) - its if you are in W10. Then navigate to folder there miner is. run EthDcrMiner64.exe -driver uninstall. Then reboot Next - also run command promt (Administrator) - navigate to miner folder and run start bat wih straps option. Thats it. Next time you can run start.bat not with admin rights, cause drivers allready been installed. Does it matter if my cards have already been bios modded? Looking to override those with claymore If your bioses are modified , you wont get big bedefit of using strap option , cause it does same thing as your moded bios did. rxboost can speedup a liitle.

Hi, "y" key at the initialization process of what?
For Claymore 14.7: -y enables Compute Mode and disables CrossFire for AMD cards. "-y 1" works as pressing "y" key when miner starts. This option works in Windows only.
If you are running older version before "y option" implemented , you can change it manually one by one in "Radeon Settings" or use "amd-compute-mode-switcher-script" available somewhere on the internet. Just use newest Claymore ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I need to sort that out (I tried briefly to re-install the AMD driver, but then only one card was there in graphic cards instead of 2, reverted to latest restore point)

+1 I've been logging on daily to see if there has been some update to this. Radeon VII cards are becoming scarce and I just started a 4800w 12 GPU mining rig that needs some cards! But what to use?

Not yet. Sadly. As for what to use.... Keep getting those Radeon Vii's as long as you can!!! after that its a huge cliff to the Rx 500 series and AMD has been unable to resolve the Dag issue with the 5700. The pressure is mounting though, now that the AIB cards are now in the wild, they need to fix that driver ASAP.

Next time you can run start.bat not with admin rights, cause drivers allready been installed. Does it matter if my cards have already been bios modded? Looking to override those with claymore If you go to page 1344 you'll see my breakdown of what to do with the Cards. My suggestion is the following: 1. Make a shortcut on your desktop to your start.bat file 2. Right click on that shortcut and go to properties 3. Select Advanced 4. Place a check mark in "run as administrator" 5. When you launch for the first time click on "select what to do when seeing this notification" 6. Move the slider down to the bottom. By doing this: 1. You just have to double click it to launch your miner with no more warning or extra clicks moving forward. 2. You can right click on the shortcut and hit edit to edit your batch file w/out having to navigate to it constantly. 3. You can right click on the shortcut and "open file location" and it'll bring you right to your mining software location. This should help you navigate and make things a little easier to execute and edit your miner in Windows 10.

are You mostly using the AMD driver version 19.4.3 (where Claymore has performed most of his tests) or the newer driver versions are stable too and maybe even get better mining results?

Anyone else getting this on 4GB cards? GPU0 - not enough GPU memory to place DAG, you cannot mine this coin with this GPU GPU0 - OpenCL error -61 - cannot allocate big buffer for DAG. Check readme.txt for possible solutions. The DAG is 3.2GB right now, I'm on Linux, everything was working fine yesterday.

I remember that there was a topic on bitcointalk, but there were some scam links containing malware/virus under the .exe file, and the whole topic is deleted now...
