Hi, i am mining ltc now with my pc. I notice that mining only use GPU so i am looking for away to run cgminer with my 7970 while still able to use my pc normally utilising onboard vga (for video and internet).

I went to bios setting, choose main display as onboard vga. I was able to go into windows successful. However, MSI afterburn doesnt work. It only display 1 GPU - 7970 but no onboard vga, and i cant change voltage, core/mem clock, fan even though GPU-Z detected both.

Also, how can i config the .bat file for the cgminer?  I used GUIminer and it seem to work fine, 450 khash at stock speed (1070/1400 core/mem).

For overclocking with cgminer, try adding to your bat or cmd file --gpu-engine xxxx --gpu-memclock xxxx

i read somewhere that it is better to use afterburner than  overclock with bat file is that true?

Also, how do i adjust memory voltage, core voltage and fan speed?

Your on-board likely can't be overclocked. They aren't designed for that, especially when a lot of them don't even have heat-sinks  Undecided

afterburner detected my 7970 as in the Graphic line (above the driver version) it shown 7970.
