Hi guys!
I am trying to set up 8 Vega 56 mining rig but I can’t launch more than 5 Vegas as of yet
I tried Aug, 11 and Aug, 23 blockchain drivers but no luck - I get BSOD with atikmpag.sys fail when I try to install blockchain drivers for 6th Vega in Win 10. I can install such drivers for 6th Vega from safe mode but I get the same BSOD if I start Win 10 with normal mode later (if I start Win 10 with 6 Vegas active or if I turn of 6th Vega from device manager in normal mode)
I searched the web like crazy for the past 1.5 weeks and tried a lot of possible fixes (disable ulps, crossfire in regedit, properly reset cards with devcon, used soft power play tables from
http://vega.miningguides.com, changed all possible permutations of 6 cards out of 8 available, 120gb virtual memory, latest drivers for Mobo, correct bios settings including 4g and gen 1/2 speed, etc..). But still I can’t run 6+ Vegas at the same time with blockchain drivers.
Also, it’s worth mentioning that I can run 6 Vegas with usual adrenaline drivers (not blockchain) - no problems during the installation but mining performance is ~25% lower
I am quite sure I don’t have any faulty hardware in my setup (details below). So the issue is either the inability of my mobo to handle 6+ Vegas (unlikely in my opinion as I run 8 1070ti on the same Mobo in my other rig) or software issue related to drivers or my set up
As I ran out of possible solutions for the problem, I ask the great community of bitcointalk to offer relevant expertise and advize
I also offer 400 etn for the solution that would let me to run 6+ Vegas on my system with blockchain drivers!
My hardware is as follows:
Asus strix z270e gaming mobo
Celeron g3900 @ 2800 MHz
2x 4gb pc-19200 2400mhz patriot viper4 elite cl15
Ssd adata sata iii 256gb su800
8x pci-e Radeon RX Vega 56 8gb hbm2
I run Windows 10 with all latest updates
Thanks!
