I just picked up four 6970s... They don't seem to want to mine unless there is a monitor plugged into them.

Is there a way around this issue with these cards? My nvidias had no problems mining without a monitor plugged in.


Thanks

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Use the latest ATI preview drivers, you don't need to use a dummy plug. Alternatively search for the registry mod that sometimes works.
