Hey guys, I have just set up my miner for ethereum on windows 7. I use catalyst 14.4 and qtminer. qtminer started and successfully created the DAG files - now it seems like it is mining - but GPU-Z shows me 0 % GPU load for every card. And the miningpool also shows no shares. What's going wrong here?

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

What is your hardware ?
I already solved the problem. When I started it it told me that it can't find a gpu with enough memory. I deleted the -G argument... that's why it used my CPU and not the GPU's. Usually it should work... I don't know what's the problem anymore. I use 2 HD 6970 and 2 HD 6990. And I set max alloc to 100% ... and still can't create the DAG..

I use setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
but u can try also 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

Do you use QtMiner or Ethminer? I inserted all the arguments that you mentioned and still get " No GPU device with sufficient memory was found. Can't GPU mine. Remove the -G argument"

Maybe I'll try Ethminer. But I don't know how to start it. What do I need? The ethminer.exe and do I need a proxy or something?

Several people told me 14.4 is the only driver that works for my cards. I have the ethminer.exe now. But how to start it? with a Batch or with commandline? I mine on http://ethpool.org/ which requires a proxy - but I don't know how to set it up.

"To start mining with stratum, you must download, configure and run eth-proxy."

It could take up to 1-2 minutes to establish connection between the pool and the miner (DDOS-protection). During this period you can get JSON-RPC problem messages in the console. It`s OK. or try EU pool ethminer.exe -F http://eu1.nanopool.org:8888/0x72_YOUR ADDRESS -G -t 4

I installed the official ethminer now and started it with your data - but it can't connect to the server.. don't ask me why. I tried both. The us and the eu one. ethminer setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 ethminer.exe -F http://eu1.nanopool.org:8888/0x72_0xD5B1C0b4a418F512D37645F57c0Cba6D44bAdaA0 -G -t 4 0x72_0xD5B1C0b4a418F512D37645F57c0Cba6D44bAdaA0 isn't your adress, it's 0xD5B1C0b4a418F512D37645F57c0Cba6D44bAdaA0. So just remove the red part and it should be working...

try dwarf as a pool, for the dag try to delete the old dag and restart the system, and see if the cpu usage is at 100%

ethminer doesn't run even if I delete the adresspart. It can't connect. json rpc error.
The claymore miner reqires 7XXX or 2XX or 3XX cards. And catalyst 15.12.

Not long because some cards don't work and therefore watchdog stops the miner. Add "-wd 0" to your command line to ignore failed cards as I told you already: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.msg14837013#msg14837013Then when you confirm that it works, use "-di" option to select working cards and you can use non-working cards to mine something else if you cannot make all cards work. Have you tried it? It seems no, instead you created several threads to discuss your problem.

Have you tried it? It seems no, instead you created several threads to discuss your problem. I love you Sorry for not following your instructions earlier. It seems like it is working like that with -wd 0. As far as I can see GPU #2 does not work. Do I need to do anything else or can I just run it like this? EDIT: GPU #2 just started to mine. So all 6 GPU's running like that
