Is there a way to check if there is any virus in my computer from these miner? I did a avg scan for my whole computer and nothing. Does that mean I am safe? Thanks  Take the executable and upload it here https://www.virustotal.com/ If it reports that it is infected and you ran the executable then you most likely have the virus and you'll need to wipe everything, don't waste your time with trying to remove it. If virus total reports back that there is no virus, you should still be very very cautious because it is serious stuff. I wouldn't use anything the 'fake me' put up for download. platinum4, ha, I'm surprised someone hasn't responded with "What if I only have a 21 inch speaker?" |

Don't download anything from jch9678. It's my account but MColeman hacked it. I'm trying to recover my account but it's not looking good.
you mean mprep is not verifying your authenticity to the account? ... eitherway - logic should prevail when it comes to buying miners from people that dont develop them ( or at least develop the binaries ) ... the ones that seem to be the most active ( and the trustworthy ones ) are wolf0 - pallas - djm34 ( though he is mainly cuda ) - and a few others ... ALWAYS ask here in the public forum - even if its a private thing between you and the dev - ALWAYS ask the community ... #crysx mprep has nothing to do with it. Theymos is the only one who can reinstate accounts to the original owner. As far as getting in touch with Theymos, someone respectable here said I have a better chance of getting in touch with the Queen, so.... He did however give my old account negative feedback and delete the link so at least people can't download his virus anymore. Goodbye reputation, I'll see you again in 2 years. o ok ... my mistake - i though mprep was the guy / girl that did that ... so if theymos is the guy / girl that is to be contacted with the job / position of 'taking care' of this ( which one would assume the investigation AND proving of such ) - and theymos is almost impossible to get hold of - what on earth is he / she in the position of 'bct power' for? ... just my take - but i dont see why anyone should hold a position if they dont acknowledge that they have a responsibility to uphold that position - regardless if its volunteered or paid ... sorry to hear about your rep and all that it incurs ... you will bring it back up again - im sure of it ... o well - i guess thats freedom and democracy playing its part again ... hang on - bct isnt the communities forum - is it? ... who ACTUALLY has CONTROL of bct? ... #crysx |

Thanks Take a 22" subwoofer and run it alongside every side of your CPU tower, this should eliminate all viruses. or just run linux ( fedora 22 x64 and scientific linux and centos - in my case ) to minimize the effect of unwanted virii and unsolicited infections ... and also to improve your overall security and stability by a factor of 10 ... ... #crysx |

Thanks Smiley Avira detects it avgfree does a damn good job of scanning and protecting ... all of the windows machines that we service have it - ALL of them ( there are thousands ... yes - thousands of home machines that we have installed it on ) ... corporates require licenses - but hey - they can afford to ... avg themselves have revamped the code also - and the heuristics scanning - but that also means ( with most scanners ) that you will get a lot of false-positives ... always check with the community - there will always be at least someone that has tried an install and can give a result ... false-positives are just part of the viral scene now ... there is a limit to being 'too' careful - and that it ... #crysx |

How long does it take to see your address on the "miners list" on the nicehash page? Been mining for an hour with an R9 290 and my BTC address is still saying "no data".

Something is wrong because it only takes a minute or two. Make sure that you selected the correct Service location (USA or Europe) and algorithm based on the stratum that your miner is using. |

Something is wrong because it only takes a minute or two. Make sure that you selected the correct Service location (USA or Europe) and algorithm based on the stratum that your miner is using. also - if you have incorrectly setup the miner - it will more than likely be hashing and losing the hashes ... so no data will show up ... but its more than likely what tanoury mentioned ... there is a pull down menu that changes from nicehash ( eu stratum ) to westhash ( ch jp usa stratum ) ... check where you have pointed the miner and change it to the algo and the stratum that you are using ... both from the pulldown menus in the graph page of the btc address ... #crysx |

Anybody know when the "--benchmark" option was removed from sgminer?
A looong time ago there was an option:
--benchmark
Run sgminer in benchmark mode - produces no shares
but not sure it it was actually working ... it's still there in cgminer, though. It would be very useful to have an offline benchmark option, the same as ccminer has. If anybody has some info on this please share.

Hi, Is there anyone mining NeoScrypt algorithm on AMD GPUs? I'm only getting HW errors, no accepted shares. I tried several sgminer versions on 14.x and 15.x AMD drivers on both Windows and Linux, only HW errors in any combination. Any hints are welcome if anybody can get NeoScrypt algorithm working without HW errors and with accepted shares. sgminer --algorithm neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://neoscrypt.eu.nicehash.com:3341 -u btcaddress -p x --xintensity 3 --worksize 64 --gpu-threads 2 Thanks! |

i think there was a --throughput parameter that was needed to get it running well with sgminer ...
I've never heard about --throughput parameter, where did you get this? I've seen some feathercoin pool suggesting --net-delay but I'm not sure if this makes any sense ... anyway, any hints are welcome. Thanks! |

Hi,

Thanks! install 14.9 drivers and build from the daily builds you had from 13 november 2014 (sgminer-5.1-dev-2014-11-13-win32) build your bins then u can use them on 15.x with no amdocl.dll drop tricks |

(I only did the neoscrypt implementation for ccminer) the parameters you are talking about are only for ccminer not sgminer. Not sure what kind of problem there is in sgminer... |

I can have a look, as suggested, but I am not sure to have the time at the moment. |
