Started using NemosMiner - really liking it, but have an issue- i get this message Application blocked from using accessing graphich cards - appears mostl on zm.exe and ccminer.
I tried adding the whole Nemosminer folder to my antivirus (avast free version) exceptions page, but still am getting these messages. Most of the timer it manages to launch a miner, but sometimes i see that the miner wasnt launched.
Anybody knows how to get rid of this issue?
This is on windows 10, latest Nemominer version, 2x gtx1070 cards

how do you change bench mark with out resting 

[Zybane]

I keep getting "GPU #0: result does not validate on CPU!" on some algorithms, I take it that this is bad and slowing my mining?

Hi All

I got the following problem,what could be the problem?

Status: Failed

    Speed Active                      Launched Command
    ----- ------                      -------- -------
0,00 PH/s 00 Days 00 Hours 00 Minutes Once     Bin\NVIDIA-CcminerKlaust\ccminer.exe -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://neosc

                                               0602,c=BTC -d 0,1,2,3,4,5
Seems that the following miners won't start:
NVIDIA-Alexis78cuda9
NVIDIA-CcminerKlaust

Having the same issue. CCminerKlaust seems to hash even with this message (the miner window is open and showing hashes), but once is a while Windows starts showing a message saying that the application was blocked from using hardward acceleration and eventualy the ccminer crashes

Tested the latest release (2.4.1) with two of my rigs (first with asrock H110 Pro btc+ and 10x 1070, second one with 10x 1070Ti) and ahashpool24h. All algorithms enabled, all benchmarks passed, all miners are working. Thanks for the great job!

@zaqwsx

What settings do you use for gpu,memory and TDP?
Thanks!

See reality after 48 testing 3 GTX 1080ti
I tested on ahashpool was always on average 32 - 42 dollars
and the reality in the postman was 18 dollars, the disbelief is too big must have something wrong in this algorithm is giving a reality that does not exist.

Out of curiosity, has anyone parallel-tested ahashpool vs miningpoolhub at all?
Somebody a few pages back did ahashpool vs hashrefinery and zpool, but MPH wasn't tested afaik? Or did I miss it?

Nemo, please add another pool: blockmunch.club (it has a payout in BTC/LTC/DOGE).

Nemo, please add another pool: blockmunch.club (it has a payout in BTC/LTC/DOGE).

Low-earning pool. Too bad.


Here is the pool file for Nemos.

1. Download http://you-stupid-woman.com/blockmunch.zip
2. Extract the "blockmunch.ps1" into the "pools" dir
3. Use "blockmunch" as your pool in the Nemos .bat file and your are ready to go.

4. Donate some BTC: 1L4MFYDjhpVADePgvaTnsQ7neUvhZHo3ho

This probably isn't the right place for this but I'm having a hell of a time moving my 4x1070's into one rig.

I set everything up on a fresh install of windows 10 and I can get it to detect 3 cards but when I add the 4th nothing boots I just get a black screen and can't even get to the bios.

It's not the risers because I can make any combination of the three cards work and it's not the PSU's because I, again, can make any combination of the three work.  It's not the PCI slots because I can make any combination of the three work as well out of the 6 slots.  As soon as the 4th card is added with power to it it just won't start.

I've read that maybe my 4gb of ram isn't enough, but I've also read that you really don't need more than 4gb of ram.  I'm really stuck here and hoping that one of you might have had this same issue and know a way to correct it.

Have you changed BIOS settings for mining? e.g. 'BIOS Above 4G Decoding' is enabled, PCIE speed set to 'Gen 1'

You are an awesome person.  Thanks for this.

Awesome !!! i have only tested with 6x myself

All good, glad I could help 

[StartxPH]

how do I set to use only 50% of the gpu power so that I can still play basic game and hardware accelleration..

thanks

I don't know if this will work for gaming but you can try reducing the intensity of the miners. In the miners folder edit the .ps1 file for each miner and find the -i parameter and lower it.

e.g. in ccMinerAlexis78.ps1 change '-i 21' or similar to something like '-i 10', do this all the active algos (lines which aren't commented out with a # at the start) and see how it works. Just guessing a value you'll have to experiment to find one that works.

Hey guys, been using my 970 to mine using nemos miner no problems.  Recently picked up a gtx 1080 and the display driver crashes whenever Nemos switches to a different algorithm.  Any solutions to this?  Crashes regardless of overclock, underclock, or stock settings.

Try uninstalling any OC apps, doing a DDU then installing the latest nvidia drivers

Thanks for the advice, tried exactly that.  Got rid of GPU Tweak, used DDU, reinstalled latest Nvidia and still crashing on algorithm switch.  Seems like it's only doing it when I'm using OC software though, either GPU Tweak or MSI Afterburner.  I'd be fine not using either while mining, but I like to limit my TDP of my card while mining and I can't do that without OC software as far as I know.

Are you the latest version e.g. Afterburner 4.4.2?

It's not as convenient as AB but you could use nvidia-smi to set TDP from the commandline: http://cryptomining-blog.com/7410-monitor-and-control-your-nvidia-gpus-while-mining/ If it works you can make a bat file to run the settings.

Yeah the latest Afterburner.  After some more tests it seems like OC software doesn't change anything like I thought, still crash on some algorithms closing, so far: skunk, x17, lbry, lyra2, blake2s all crash when closing.  For now I'm just mining one algorithm when I can't babysit the computer.

From some research I've heard the same happening with other people using 1080s and other pascal cards crashing when closing certain algorithms.

I don't have any 1080s but I have benchmarked and nemos can switch to those algos on all my other pascal cards: 1060s, 1070s and 1080tis.

Are you using a pcie riser? They are often a weak point so try switching it out.

Thanks!

I'm using nvidiaInspector to set the GPUs
