A new version of the miner is available; I've updated the download link on the first post, or you can get it here: guiminer-20110521.exe (self-extracting archive)Remember, if you're making money with this miner you should send me even 0.1 Bitcoin. The previous release got over 12,000 downloads and my total donations over that period were under 9 BTC, so I know you guys can do better Changes: - Add BTC Guild mining pool to the list of presets. - Add -s flag to poclbm that can reduce temperatures by forcing the GPU to sleep. Thanks to llanwj for coding this. - Add Spanish language support. Thanks to BitcoinsWallet for contributing this. - Add checkbox to disable warning about OpenCL not being installed. - Reset count of shares accepted/stale on change of server. - If balance API token is rejected by the server, prompt user to enter a new token. - Fix issue where the About dialog would be cut off. - Console logs now include a timestamp on all messages.

Hey Kiv
I'm getting an error when I try and launch the GUIminer and it informs me to view the guiminer.exe.log
and this is what is in the log: ERROR:root:Exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "guiminer.py", line 1995, in run File "guiminer.py", line 1429, in __init__ File "guiminer.py", line 1660, in parse_config File "json\__init__.pyo", line 267, in load File "json\__init__.pyo", line 307, in loads File "json\decoder.pyo", line 319, in decode File "json\decoder.pyo", line 338, in raw_decode ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded Traceback (most recent call last): File "guiminer.py", line 2005, in <module> File "guiminer.py", line 1995, in run File "guiminer.py", line 1429, in __init__ File "guiminer.py", line 1660, in parse_config File "json\__init__.pyo", line 267, in load File "json\__init__.pyo", line 307, in loads File "json\decoder.pyo", line 319, in decode File "json\decoder.pyo", line 338, in raw_decode ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded
I just changed my hardware from a 460GTX to a 6950, I've already updated/uninstalled the nvidia/ATI drivers, installed ATI 11.5 and SDK 2.4 I've resetted and uninstalled/installed the drivers many times and have yet to get this error fixed.... I can load up the non-gui style to mine but not your version after the hardware changed, the guiminer worked fine with the 460gtx
Thanks in advanced

Looks like something weird happened to your miner settings, if you clear them it should work. 1) Go Start -> Run and type in the box %APPDATA%\poclbm 2) This should open a folder with a file called poclbm.ini inside. If you could send me that file it would help me figure out what went wrong. If you delete that file it will get rid of your miner settings and you should be able to start fresh. 3) Try restarting the miner now. Hey Kiv

You have idea to add phoneix & phatk, besides poclbm, coz all share same methods.
in poclbm i get 270-300, but in phatk i get 313 Mhash/s
Besides, i added -s flag & miner says starting only & never starts.

new/alternative mining backends could be nice, but they slightly more bloated and have some dependencis.

Has anyone found a solution for the whole each miner using a CPU core thing? Right now, I've got 2 GPUs with 2 miners each (4 total miners, 2 that I'm actually using and 2 backup in case the others fail) and it's using the entirety of my i5-2500k. The thread linked to in the FAQ is just more people saying "hey I have this too." without any solutions. Also, Kiv - 1.5 bitcoins sent your way. This is a wonderful interface; you've made things so user friendly.

Hey kiv,
Nice update but i cant get -s to work. Says its starting but never does.
Here are some features that would be nice:
Detect if mouse is being used and switch to -f100 and then back to -f0 if mouse and keyboard are inactive or a movie is playing ? Able to put backup pool if first one is offline ?
Thanks.

I'm getting the error Connection Problems again after a good week and 2 days of it working perfectly.
I cannot understand why this occurs?
It really is perplexing. The Pool I'm part of is fine, so why it is having random connection issues is beyond me.

Are you using a value with -s? You need to give the sleep time as well, something like -s0.01 which would mean to sleep for 0.01 seconds between runs. On my GPU that amount of sleep cuts the hash rate roughly in half, you can experiment to find the balance between temperature. If you are giving the sleep time already and it's still not working, let me know and I'll investigate further Also, it is possible to have a backup pool using the -f flag. See the FAQ in first post.

I'm getting some connection issues, after the latest miner update. Guiminer keeps saying "retrying", "error connection to server" after a while. My internet is fine and the miner was working perfectly before I updated. I cleared my .ini and the problem is still there. Could there be a problem at the pool I'm using? It's Deepbit.

Can anyone tell me why my confirmed reward from mining.bitcoin.cz account does not show up on GUIminer? My balace on GUIminer is 0 but I have confirmed funds in my account.
EDIT: Its ok. I've figured it out. I needed to paste my token in the miner.
