Small bug here? When I set -I 20 this happens: (with 1x HD 5770)
That's not a bug. That's just being stupid. Switch to -I 7.

I'm on windows 8 with the latest cgminer. I find that I have to reset cgminer atleast 1-2 times a day because it hangs on my 7970 running only at 1000/1000.
The last message is usually "Pool 0 stratum share submission failure" but it fails to connect to my alternate pools. My windows 7 rig with 4 GPUs never has this issue and has been going for weeks on end. Is there any incompatibility with windows 8? I have made sure that all firewalls on my computer have full permission for cgminer as well.

Taken right from the FAQ in the very first post of this thread: Q: I'm getting much lower hashrates than I should be for my GPU? A: Look at your driver/SDK combination and disable power saving options for your GPU. Specifically look to disable ULPS. Make sure not to set intensity above 11 for BTC mining.

Yeah I read that and it has nothing to do with my error since I'm getting way to HIGH (read, not LOW) hashrates. I normally get 170Mh with -I 4 and when I tune things I get around 200Mh, but NOT 3000Mh.

BTCGuild web interface reports ~50MH/s
Your hashrate is lower than it should be.

Find out what version that number is - it may (or may not) be a problem. As for Platform - when reading the README, search for the word "platform" (F3 or Ctrl-F or whatever the search key is) You have an unusual setup - so you will need to read and understand more of the README ...

Hi all
I've been trying to mine litecoins using cgminer. I managed to connect to my pool ok but after running it for about 5 minutes I had q=20 a=1
I only had 5 minutes but I don't think those results look good. If I was mining for Bitcoin I would have had a lot more shares accepted in 5 minutes mining
Is there something going wrong?
Thanks
EDIT Here is the command line and output:

I can't seem to monitor cgminer (2.11.4) with a web front end (Anubis) when I'm scrypt mining. If I do normal BTC mining it works fine. I've tried to explicitly set the api port to 4028 using the --api-port switch but it still doesn't work.

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

Why? 4x7950 exactly like your card mines with 4GB system ram with: --scrypt -pool:port -O user:pass --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 21712 -g 1 -w 256 -I 19 Win 7 64 12.8

Hi guys, I'm trying to mining LTC using 2x5870 with this line: cgminer -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -u xxxx -p x --script
The command "--scrypt" aren't accepted by cgminer!
the output is: [2013-04-07 12:51:40] cgminer: --scrypt: unrecognized option
Then i tried with cgminer --enable-scrypt, but the output is:
cgminer: --enable-scrypt: unrecognized option
Even if the command "--enable-scrypt" is on the README file!
If you want to use scrypt you should write scrypt and not script...

I now have another system to test. It has a AMD Radeon HD 7970M and a intel 3000. Its strange but cgminer.exe -n only shows the 7970M as a gpu, not the 3000. It was another way with an nvidia platform. There were 2 platforms and both gpus could mine.
The thing is... when i start mining, regardless if for bitcoins or litecoins, it starts, then the screen turns black and thats all. The fan is working hard. When i check the hashrate at the pool i see a hashrate going down and more down. Im not sure what happens because i cant see anything. When i try the debug-flag the whole thing is crashing.

Hi there,
i hope its ok to write such problems here.
Its my first try to add some performance using the cgminer. The setup is Windows7 64 and 2x7950.
Thats the error i get right after starting:

Any ideas??

I now dont know further. I installed the driver for intel 3000 gpu, chipsetdriver and newest beta of catalyst for the 7970M. Then installed AMD OpenCL SDK 2.7 because i have read 2.8 is faulty.
But -n shows still only one GPU. At least its the 7970M. It shows Error -1: Getting Device IDs (num).
Starting cgminer brings this error again and then a black screen while the card is running. When i see at the pool (bitparking) the hashrate starts with a crazy high value and constantly drops then even though the gpu seems to run because of high temperature and high clockrates (gpu-z). I believe nothing is sent then anymore.
So what could i try now?
