Hello coinscrow

I don't understand very well the msOS.
I want to test it but I am not sure if my Windows install will still stay alive after booting with the usb flashed key.

Is your OS able to run on its own using only USB drive ?

Thanks

ETH Epoch #379

If you see any DAG generation error or error messages such as clcreatebuffer(-61).
Try to switch to a recently updated miner in the config editor, such as teamredminer, lolminer, nbminer, nanominer, trex.
