I am building this rig and everything works perfectly except The gui minner will not see my video card. I have two options to choose from.
0-0 caymen
0-1 amd phenom 1090T

I have installed an xfx radeon HD 6950. For the life of me I cannot figure out why it wont work. I installed the up to date drivers. maybe I missed something. any help would be awesome

are you using the new gui miner that lists like 5 servers for btc guild try using the nl2 one. also did you create a worker on btcguilds website. after you log into your btc guild account you create a worker. and use that username and password and not your account one ?

This is probably your problem, I know it tripped me up when I first signed up for BTCGuild. Your main account is only used for signing into the website, and then you have worker accounts tied to that, on which you sign in with your miner.

It always is. I used to work tech support, and you wouldn't believe how many people called in because they'd accidentally unplugged their PC. Sadly, these were always the people that would yell at you for even remotely suggesting that they would overlook something so simple, only to be followed up quickly with "Oh, nevermind, I found the problem."

aye worked tec. breakfix deskside support was just as bad/good for me as well I did not care so I used to point it out in front of everyone else around. Its amazing how few calls I got after a month Smiley. Normally no network connection (network cable unplugged). Monitor not turning on (power cable) etc
