Could someone post their exact .bat info please. I'm having hell with this miner. It will not connect to ANY pool, and I thought the .bat was correct.
Examples tried: cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355 -u 3K6N9sqGvZRp5FRr5ioAo4HC824duhSsuj.PC cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355 -u 3K6N9sqGvZRp5FRr5ioAo4HC824duhSsuj.PC -p x stratum+tcp://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355 -u 3K6N9sqGvZRp5FRr5ioAo4HC824duhSsuj.PC stratum+tcp://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355 -u 3K6N9sqGvZRp5FRr5ioAo4HC824duhSsuj.PC -p x
Same result for nanopool(ETN), easyhash.io(KRB), ssl, etc. [18:10:34] Connecting to stratum+tcp://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355 ... [18:10:34] SOCKET ERROR - Connection Error: GetAddrInfo: No such host is known. [18:10:34] Connecting to Pool failed. Retrying in 20 secs ...
If it connects I'll mine to your address for a while. I've checked my AV and it nor Windows Security claims to be blocking it, but who knows. Claymore connects, but is only 1300h/s, so I wanted to try Cast.

cast_xmr-vega -S pool.supportxmr.com:5555 -u yourwallet -p x --nonicehash -G 0,1,2,3,4 --nonicehash is optional, -G will depend on the amount of cards you have. In my case, I have 5 cards.

Tried -S pool.supportxmr.com:5555 -u my cryptopia.address -p PC --nonicehash -G 0 Won't connect. My only guess is the disabled Windows security crap is still blocking the Cast miner.

My rigs would run fine for hours and then out of the blue Cast XMR hangs. I have JJs monitoring script running and because the values can be read from JSON it doesn't pick it up as a hang. Essentially the timestamp remains stagnant, bolded below, with no additional increments. Only solution is to force the Cast window closed and let the monitoring script restart the Cast cmd shell instance.
[16:36:35] GPU0 | 51°C | Fan 3245 RPM | 1913.2 H/s
I know I can modify the hash monitor script to do a check on the timestamp.
Anyone else seen this type of issue?
I have 2 rigs with the following config: 4GB Corsair RAM ASUS Z270-a mobo 3 x Vega 56 stock bios, memclock at 920mhz for all
Yes, it happens to me too. For what I read, Asus Z270-a is not the best mobo to run Vegas. I'm changing it tomorrow. Will let you know if it get more stable. I don't think it is a mobo issue. Will check the job # in JSON output to see if that be used to monitor freezes. Anyone else seen this or worked around it?

Quote from: naazz on December 15, 2017, 03:03:00 PM But sometime it just stop mining nothing appear in the console until i hit a enter or any key and it start back.This typically occurs when you have your Windows Command Prompt windows enabled for 'Quick Edit', and you click the mouse inside the window to focus; but this tells the Command Prompt window that you want to quick copy content. To fix: While the miner is running, click the Command Prompt icon, go to Properties, and unselect Quick Edit. Then go back to that menu, select Defaults, and uncheck it there so future windows apply this setting.

hello! is there any way to run cast xmr miner with all available video cards? I have 5 cards so there is -G 0,1,2,3,4 parameter in config. Without -g miner uses only first card. Sometimes system restarts and lose one or two card and miner could not launch after startup because it did not find one or two cards.

have you checked your raisers? You need to reinstall the drivers every time you plug a new card. This guide should help you out. http://vega.miningguides.com/

Sometimes system restarts and lose one or two card and miner could not launch after startup because it did not find one or two cards.
I have this exact same problem! To be more clear, I have 2x Vega 64 in my system - Cast Miner will sometimes crash randomly, which will cause windows to restart. **Oddly, upon re-starting, Windows only detects 1 Vega card (not 2)** I run a startup script (.bat file) as described in the earlier posts, and so my script automatically calls -G 0, 1 parameter in config. Since only 1 card is detected, Cast Miner throws a user promt stating that only 1 card was detected. As a result, my rig stalls because Cast Miner does not want to run with only 1 card. It is very strange why Windows can sometimes boot with fewer cards detected than are actually plugged in. What makes it even more strange is that rebooting Windows does not solve the problem, but shutting down (and rebooting) will let Windows properly detect 2 cards in the system. In any case, the Windows detection problem likely has nothing to do with the Cast Miner itself - so i echo what Zachosan is saying above - 1) Is there any way to run cast miner with all available video cards without having to specify -G 0, 1, ..., x (Again the reason we would like this is to let the rig come up gracefully with as many cards as detected by Windows after a reboot) 2) Alternately, could the Developer please turn off "verbose mode" such that when Cast sees fewer cards than specified, the Cast Miner does not throw up a user prompt. (If the cast miner sees less cards then specified, then simply indicate that fewer cards are detected, and keep running) Anyone else who has run into this issue? Thanks!

have you checked your raisers? You need to reinstall the drivers every time you plug a new card. This guide should help you out. http://vega.miningguides.com/I would like to clarify that I am not running risers in my system. Two Vegas are plugged directly into the motherboard. Therefore this is not a riser issue, nor does it have anything to do with disabling/enabling the cards using devcon.exe. (Devcon will only detect one card out of two because Windows sees only one card). I have followed this guide line by line... Thanks for any help!

Thanks for any help! hmmmm could it be some kind of PCI 16x conflict, whatever that might be? I'd try using a riser connected to a PCI-E 1x slot.... In regards to what RIGED mentioned as stability the 6 Vega 56 mining rig is mining at 11500+H/s and 1200+ shares every 4 hours with 0 errors! It's been 3 days since I've found the much needed stability, it makes a hell of a difference, you can almost forget about the rig

looks to be a tad better than STAK for me. nice job.
This miner is so worth it for me over STAK. even if the hashrates were the same, the fan noise is so much less with this miner. It was driving me absolutely crazy. I don't have a devoted room for my miners.

In the JSON monitoring the pool changes to "disconnected" yet I'm accessing the console over the network so it is not a network related issue. I use monerohash...gonna try supportxmr.

Been using fast job switch with the latest cast xmr release 0.8. I noticed that temps are up a bit and the average hash rate drops some due to the job changes. This latest versions, change to the kernel, mean the MEM seems to be working harder/hotter. However, I still get some outdated jobs on my 6 Vega 64 rig. Anyway I am still pulling .3 XMR every 3 days or so on the rig. I will check the rig an a couple days and see if anything changes.
