Hi Acrefawn,
Thanks for the update, looks good.
Since the update I have not experienced the issue where too many cards were detected. Well done.
Low Hashrate detection In response to nuisance restarts from low hashrate, I have reduced my input for "average" hashrate down significantly from the real average (-~7%). Unfortunately, I am still experiencing nuisance restarting of the miner when hashrate drops momentarily due to difficulty changes. I understand that I could further drop the "average" hashrate to remedy this but I feel like that is starting to defeat the point of monitoring it in the first place.
To expand on my previous suggestion and above issue; the hashrate monitoring could be more sophisticated and less hypersensitive with the following features: -Automatic calculation of real average hashrate -Acceptable hashrate tolerance determined as a configurable % of real average hashrate -Require several events of NON acceptable hashrate before initiating a restart or other corrective action
There could be a problem with that though. If the software is calculating the average hashrate automatically, it may need to ignore the first reported hashrate after each miner launch (first report is often an outlier)
Regarding over-temperature protection: In the case of DSTM's ZM Miner: when --temp-target is defined, the miner starts reducing the workload to prevent the GPU from exceeding the set temperature. It seems(please confirm?) that autorun currently takes the set temperature as defined for the miner and uses this as the temperature limit for its own purpose. So, the miner never gets the opportunity to respond because autorun shuts it down at the same point where the miner should start down-regulating the workload.
Can autorun be modified to allow the max GPU temp to be set by the user rather than taken from the config parameters used for the miner? For example: miner set to reduce workload at 76 degrees and autorun resets machine at 80 degrees. That way, autorun does not interfere with the miner.
ZM Version 0.5.7 has been released. I'm going to give it a whirl on one rig with autorun and see what happens.

Hello! Thank you for your time, testing and this response. About average hashrate and temperatures will think and post some updates little bit later. ATM bussy little bit. Contact me in Telegram please.

I get these showing up in Miner-autorun: "Invalid number. Numeric constants are either decimal (17), hexadecimal (0x11), or octal (021)."
These stats are displaying wrong in Miner-autorun: "Average Sol/s: 0 Last Sol/s: 67C" . A bug in this version? I didn't try earlier versions.
Dstm 0.5.7 and Autorun 1.8.3
Edited: Changing the dots to colons in my windows date and time format fixed this, as in to 18:12:00 instead of 18.12.00 .
Thanks Acrefawn, great job with the program!

Hi Acre, billion thanks for this awesome work.
wanted to ask you if i can use the eth-claymore script while dual mining (ex. eth+dcr). i did try but i got errors/miner restars due to 2nd coin problem. what should the command line order be?
thanks again and keep up the good work R
Never mind, got it to work

Hello there
i just preapred some new rigs with 4.4.2 MSIA. The script seems to get frozen - config.bat loaded... then 120 sec to start MSIA - but nothing happens.
If i kill the process from startup and then start manually, press space to skip - launches ok.
Is it MSIA new version fault or the script?
have seen those hangs also some time on previous 20 beta version.

thank's you for your script ,usefull here. i got few probleme with my rig , im newbie here, got ring since less 3 weeks and using your script since 1 week , and i have probleme actually ,no probleme about reboot & restart minning Zcash. but i have 1 card bad. i see you spy card Temp for slow down work to heat less card. but here , card look crash or hashrate down alot your script ,restart card/computer but card crash again few hours later. can you look about Overclocking control ? ( Underclocking ) what i ask ,when a card crash , just slow down overlocking of the poor card to get it stable. actually im using afterburner but not good to do this. but i think it's possible with nvidia inspector. i will look to do it ,but im 0 in script ( i used basic on cpc6128 , 25y ago but .... im 0 in bash but it look similar ) i dont ask for overlocking , it's for underclocking ,when summer comme T° up .... same get zm crashed , i got windows error message about zm error but zm windows is open and no reaction from script like all work fine but no more minning anyone know a good pool low fee to get email when rig dont mine anymore or too mutch slower ?

Hello. Thx. Sorry but it is hard to help you, every (and each) card have individual OC settings, you just need to find them. By increasing values from default 10 by 10 and 1 by 1. It is possible to use nvidia inspector but it is hard to indicate values for all users. So it is individual problem and must be resolved only by you. Same with temperatures, it depends where you stay your machines. You need to think about fans and coolers. It is standart problems of all miners. But on this forum you can find good advices!

Thank you for this awesome script, was exactly what I was looking for. I've been running it for a week or so and so far it's brilliant. I am giving it a little more time to see it being updated and will support the dev. Using it with dstm so far, the telegram bot reporting is such a nice feature. Keep up the good work!

***UPDATE - I got it running on windows 7 going strong for about 2hrs now! What components of windows 10 does this need besides Powershell WMF 5.1 I have a lot of windows 7 rigs and can install the necessary powershell wmf if that's all it rally needs? OR, are there other windows 10 native components it relies on? PS - THIS IS AWESOME I mined to your wallet for a few hours last night

***Update - Bad news, after rig restart it hangs on the "Waiting 120 sec. for the full load of MSI Afterburner". If I close and restart it the script manually it runs. Any thoughts/ideas on what could be causing the hang? **UPDATE - I got it running on windows 7 going strong for about 2hrs now!

I was looking for something just like this. I’ll have to try it out tomorrow. DTSM keeps crashing at night for me. Love to have a way to auto restart it if it keeps happening. Using windows OS so I’ll give it a try tomorrow.
