One of my rigs just crash (i have to hard reset to work again), and it aways mined Eth+Sia with no problem, but so far i have 6 rigs, only one with this problem

In my opnion Silent army kernel still bad optimized ( cant complain it is the best we have).

I never had to reboot my rigs to restore 0 sol/s , restarting genoil aways solved .

Try removing this from your bat file, and see if works

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

Well A lot of people are having a problem with genoil, so i will make things clear,
I have 6 rigs running, and dont have problem with any of them

Im using Flypool, Stable,pay right  and have a nice dashboard Wink

Lets start from zero.

*Make a fresh windows 7/10 instalation (genoil works on both)
-If you dont want format your rig i recommend unistalling drivers using DDU and installing latest from amd

*Go in system -> advanced system configuration -> perfomance -> advanced, and change your virtual memory initial 10000 max 32768
- Click set after that, or it will not save.
- Dont forget to change power settings, or your pc will hibernate

*I recommend changing Bios to Stock , and all oc settings to stock, for testing and running (you can try changing them later)
*If you have a weak cpu, dont mine with it, or it will afect your gpu mining speed

*Download genoil 0.42, extract everything to a folder on your desktop
-create a start.bat
-First time is better to create a kernel for every Gpu at time so do the following using -g Command (0 is the first GPU)
Quote
genoil.exe -c us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1PbU7yPYcrJkZFSxJU4soeyvYJf9VwUj1h.RIGNAME  -k zec -p z -g 0

Launch the start.bat after it begins to mine, close and start another gpu

Quote
genoil.exe -c us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1PbU7yPYcrJkZFSxJU4soeyvYJf9VwUj1h.RIGNAME -k zec -p z -g 1

Do it just changing the -g value From 0 to 5 ( or the number of gpus you have)

Nice!

Now lets start a test with everything together

Quote
genoil.exe -c us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1PbU7yPYcrJkZFSxJU4soeyvYJf9VwUj1h.RIGNAME  -k zec -p z

If you have a cpu with integrated video, just use this (if you are geting no opencl devices error)

Quote
genoil.exe -c us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1PbU7yPYcrJkZFSxJU4soeyvYJf9VwUj1h.RIGNAME  -k zec -p z -P 1

Now , if everything runs fine

change the bat file again, with this script, it ill close miner every hour (cause genoil sometime fails) and open again

Quote
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
:start
taskkill /F /IM genoil.exe
start /MIN genoil.exe -c us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1PbU7yPYcrJkZFSxJU4soeyvYJf9VwUj1h.RIGNAME  -k zec -p z
TIMEOUT /T 3600
goto start
pause

So runs the start.bat it ill start genoil minimized,do not close the start.bat windows

DONT FORGET TO CHANGE THE ZCASH ADRESS, OR U ILL MINE TO ME Wink
Nice mining!

Start Bats (If you dont know how to make it) just put inside genoil folder

the bold  type spot confused me . 

 I have two windows one with the mining info is hidden the bat with the timer set for 2 hour not one(used 7200 not 3600), but it does work I will post back later. this looks like a saver as I had a lot of issues today.  I am also doing this with 0.4.1 genial not 0.4.2

The loop trick doesn't work too well, the thing crashes 2 min after the restart so one hour idle afterwards. A waste of time.  Sad

you can adjust the time, there are other problems in your rig, 2 mins is too short.

Yes , when miner works for an hour and restarts it starts to give 0sol/s on some gpus, to restart it properly to work again well i have to delete the bin file in tha cash  of the miner and start it again!
It need tweaking obviosly!

Deleting the bin files is a good idea. I had issues with that too!

coinmine works great to be honest, flypool is horrible.  cant say for suprnova I havent tried.  OP about the restart, you could do something like
:loop
start genoil...
timeout ...
taskkill...
timeout (like 3 seconds)
gotoloop...

Dont know if its better logic, but it seems easier to read

if it going to get anymore updates that's coming right now you have to use afterburner or speed fan  for widows .
