Hello fellow miners,
First of all I want to say hello and I am new to the bitcoin mining process. When running the cgminer with .bat file I get errors saying that it cant find any of my GPU's. My mining rig specs are:
OS: windows 7 ultimate (64 bit)
APU: AMD A10-5800k w/ Radeon HD 7660D
GPU: HD 6670
*At the moment I am running in Crossfire mode
miner: cgminer 3.1.0
AMD APP SDK v2.4
I use a .bat file to run the miner: "cgminer.exe -o
http://stratum.triplemining.com:3334 -u okenko_okenkoT1 -p A"
ISSUE: I tried running the cgminer.exe -n and got the following---------------------
[2013-05-01 22:13:33] CL Platform 0 vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I did a some research and tried the following:
- download and tried 2.4 and 2.5 AMD SDK (base on the readme that came with miner)
- tried different configuration to see if that would fix problem
- disabled dedicated (6670) card and tried running cgminer
NOTE: Just for those who may have a similar problem I managed to fix it. I ended up removing all AMD drivers and utilities. Then reinstalling everything just using drivers and utilities that came with the motherboard and GPU box
