0.05 BTC BOUNTY] CG miner 5850

[gary492]

even before i try this my gpu 0 isnt even hashing its at 0 and it keeps crashing with all my settings at default

Try with the 5850 only. Take the others out.

ya the other are hashing but this stays at 0 and then crashes the computer

This will be my guess, drivers should be 13.5beta2 and sdk13.5 beta2, cgminer 3.1.0
Try with one card alone first. If it plays, use quallity cooler and lower temp target.

I have 2 5850's and they run at 340Kh each.

I used cg miner to o'c the cards.

Im using catalist drivers 12.8
CGminer version 3.1.1

Mem 1150
Core 800

Its solid 24/7, only had to to touch it due to pool going down or drops in internet connections.

Slightly slower and stable is better than squeezing the extra 40 - 60 Kh/s and it being unstable. You dont want to be fannying around with it all the time, just press go and watch your account balance.

If its a dedicated rig do the following:

Wipe it. (its the only way to be sure, some will disagree saying its a waste of time but the hour spent here can pay dividends on avoid problems in the future)
Reinstall Win 7
Install .net 4
Install Catalyst driver 12.8
Install cg miner 3.1.1
Create a new bat file in cgminers folder. (right click new text file)
Enter the following BASIC info

Code:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer --scrypt -o http://YOURMINING POOL:PORT -u WORKERNAME -p YOUR PASSWORD --

Save it and now change the file extention from .txt to .bat
Create a shortcut of the .bat file on your desktop and then double click it.
Profit???
