hello ive had some stability issues and using the -nvf 3 command line

is it supposed to affect individual gpu hashrate or overall effective hashrate at the pool

i seem to experiencing the latter

thanks
regards

I have similar problem.

Interesting indeed.

Move the GPU with that error to a different slot with different cables, and see what GPU has the error. If the GPU you moved has the error again, I would assume it could be failing, it's the luck of the silicon lottery..

Sorry for the late reply. I tried to disable GPU 12 and the miner works with GPUs 1-11. Then I tried to disable GPU9 and re-enable GPU 12 and the miner also works with GPU12 now working and GPU9 idle. I swapped the cards a bit too just to rule out hardware.

It appears only 11 GPUs can run at any given time. So this confirms it is not a GPU hardware problem.

I raised the VRAM to min 40GB and max 56GB and all 12 GPUs were humming along just fine. Thank you PhoenixMiner devs for the tip.

Hi there, i basically got the same problem with my 1070s rig (11x) on Win10. Since DAG 200 Phönixminer fails to start some of the GPUs (usually 1-5 are ok, 6-12 failed). In Claymore 11.9 everything is working fine. I tested the hardware and everything is fine.

I did:
- test the graphic cards (no issues in other rig with linux)
- raise the VRAM to 40GB (min) and 56GB (max)
- update Nvidia driver to latest update

Still i got this errors:

Code:

2018.08.10:13:37:38.055: wdog GPU6 not responding
2018.08.10:13:37:38.055: wdog GPU7 not responding
2018.08.10:13:37:38.055: wdog GPU8 not responding
2018.08.10:13:37:38.055: wdog GPU9 not responding
2018.08.10:13:37:38.055: wdog GPU10 not responding
2018.08.10:13:37:38.055: wdog GPU11 not responding
2018.08.10:13:37:38.055: wdog Thread(s) not responding. Restarting.

Im Using win10 with several 1070 and 1070ti's overclocked with nvidiaInspector. Overclocks did work for the last 7 months. And Claymore 11.9 works perfectly fine (less hashrate though).

Would be happy to get some help on this. Will post the solution.

Same problem here, since no recent update i had to switch back to claymore

Anyone who has a claymore miner? What miner is faster for you?

I downloaded different claymore versions at max setting still pheonix is faster. Is this always true or its just me?

Try using AMD blockchain driver.

I have Phoenix & Claymore, from 2 days teting Phoenix and see a little difference. Maybe Phoenix is better. But I need one more week to be sure.
Not sure about -mi & - gt tweaks. What are the best for rx580?

has anyone ever had an issue where when they upgrade to newer amd driver versions (tried 18.1.1, 18.2.1, 18.5.1, 18.8.1), that it takes FOREVER to start the mining software?  

I'm talking about 5-15 minutes between when phoenix miner says 'starting gpu mining' to when it actually starts mining.  This affects other windows stuff too, , such as right clicking the desktop background it takes like 60 seconds to pop up the right click menu, or clicking the windows start menu takes like 60-120 seconds to show.  

When I revert back to aug23 blockchain beta driver, everything works fine/quickly, no delays, miner starts right up immediately (same params, nothing changed other than windows driver version), right clicking desktop background displays pop up menu immediately, etc.    

I've tried this on multiple rigs, all the same result with the v18.x.x drivers basically crippling everything.    I've DDU'd multiple times too to make sure system was clean.  I have no explanation for this, can't pinpoint the reason for this...stuck on this and want to upgrade drivers (I hate having to bios mod to undervolt, which doesn't even seem to work right on blockchain driver version anyway).

any help or suggestions?

fyi also my rigs each are win10 prof, core i3/i5/i7, have 8gb ram, and 120 or 240gb ssd with virtual memory page file set to 64gb, and I use onboard graphics for display with commercial kvm plugged into hdmi or dvi on the mobo.

[MrTDHP]

Anybody else having issue when mining on Nicehash?
My bat file follows the provided example. But after a while it seems to be rebuilding DAG and then looks like it just stops then >pause and >Press any key to continue...
Never happens when mining on other pools (i.e. ethermine) though

I am using 18.3.4. drivers and the miner start mining immediately.
Before I used blockchain beta driver, but versions 18.3.4. turned out more stable for me than beta blockchain drivers.

I tried that one too, same thing, everything lags.  reverted to blockchain again and everything runs immediately... what gives???

Hi guys, looks like developers forgotten about us Dear PM developers, can you give us any information when we get new version of PM?

Good news for Phoenix fans.

PHOENIX-ETH is available in minerstat's Windows node.

Enjoy your mining.

Thanks for your help, I'll check soon.

If anyone knows how to get BitDefender to stop blocking the app I would appreciate it.   I keep getting this "BitDefender AMSI Provider"  has stopped the program.

I tried disabling Anti-Malware Scan in settings, which AMSI is supposed to refer to, but no dice, same error.

[BRacing]

Blockchain drivers for my 280x rig has corrected the error. Thanks for your help. Unfortunately with the same acceleration claymore gives one card at 0.5 MH/s more. Function gt set up, now is 12. Maybe there are other ways to improve the hashrate, besides overclocking? The functions: -tt, -tmin, -tmax do not work correctly.

Will the Dev Fee ever be removed for cards at 2gb like Claymore? I'm running some Ubiq stuff, messing around on old cards... Would be nice not to have to connect for a Dev Fee on these cards.
