Try lowering your clocks. I get it when I overclock to much for some unknown reason... O_o

Claymore
we need  the miner works on 5xxx & 6xxx cards.
plz support them,thx

[drr0ss]

v2.1 is available:

- Reduced number of outdated shares that miner sends to pool.
- Added fail-over feature, "pools.txt" file.
- Added watchdog for pool, if no new jobs are received for 20 minutes - disconnect.
- Added "-ee" option to close miner if no more pools are available in the list.
- Added "-wd" option to close miner if some thread hangs.

Well done Claymore

Can I add a simple script to re-run the NsGpuCNMiner. exe after it has stopped.

Put in new text file .txt

###
@echo off
cd "X:\path_to_your_monero_start_.cmd" (or NsGpuCNMiner.exe)
tasklist | findstr NsGpuCNMiner.exe || call "(X):\path_to_your_monero_start_.cmd" (or NsGpuCNMiner.exe with all necessary parameters -do not forget new option /-wd 1/ )
###
Rename file to whatever.cmd

Search in google how to: "windows scheduled task every minute"

Configure task scheduler to repeat this whatever.cmd on every 5 mins. (I think that 5 minutes. is minimal repeat time for windows scheduled jobs).

And you are in business

I know that there are many other different methods, this is my and share it with you

(By the way, I have some observations why in some configurations obtained video cards drivers crash, but I need a more detailed observation to share it.)


Cheers!

Great update. Thanks Claymore

I am using the new miner but it has stopped for no reason twice... it doesn't freeze as you can see that blinking underscore... but it doesn't submit any shares anymore... thats the first problem. The 2nd problem is my graphics cards are still hot like they are working when they aren't submitting anymore shares. Any ideas? How do I get the miner to actually stop when it isn't actually submitting any shares? Its not like the WiFi is disconnected either... it is like it is waiting to submit the next share but doesn't do it... And that is from a 5 graphics card rig

I have completely same problem, after 4,5 minutes shares submit stop.

I will need to wait for the problem to recur I have now changed my mining pool.

[AceCobra1]

OK this is a different problem.... I have allocated the right amount of virtual memory but I only have around 8GB of RAM on the rigs... Main problem is when I get the memory allocation failed error, obviously it isn't submitting any shares but why are the GPUs still working?!?! This is a real problem as it is a waste of electricity...

[kbs1]

I am getting 2400 H/s on my 5xR9 290 rig. No modifications whatsoever (no afterburner, no nothing). Is this OK or can I get more?

What's your BAT file?
This is mine BAT

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
:BEGIN
start "CryptoNote" /low /wait NsGpuCNMiner.exe -o stratum+tcp://minin.gs:17777 -p x -u YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS -wd 1 -ee 1
timeout /t 30
GOTO BEGIN
exit

Is this a windows bat file?

Mine looks something like this

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 85
NsGpuCNMiner.exe -o stratum+tcp://minin.gs:17777 -p x -u YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS

That's my windows BAT file for version 2.1. I used watchdog option (-wd 1), miner will exit if it have any problem and the BAT file will restart it after 30 seconds.

same here, also cpu miner is saying something like cant connect to dev fee, so its stop mining completely,
definitely stopping using this crap, back to the wolf

[manipogo]

Same here. Even with the -wd flag set it doesn't shut shut down the miner - it just hangs in mid-work. Seemed to happen randomly for me. Once after about a 15 minutes. Another time after about 2 hours. Switched back to 1.2.

Incidently, anay's suggestion about lowering the GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT to 80 worked magic for me. My 3x7950's went from 730 h/s to 890 h/s on that change alone.

I find 85 better than 80... not sure if it is just me

[kqpahv]

The 2.1 version seems to be broken for me also. Miner is mining and shows no problems but nothing happening in the pool.

[riosober]

v2.1 is available:

- Reduced number of outdated shares that miner sends to pool.
- Added fail-over feature, "pools.txt" file.
- Added watchdog for pool, if no new jobs are received for 20 minutes - disconnect.
- Added "-ee" option to close miner if no more pools are available in the list.
- Added "-wd" option to close miner if some thread hangs.

perfect!

[ivcelmik]

I have allocated the right amount of virtual memory even higher (50GB)  ,i  have  8GB of RAM on the rig with 6X R9280x, main problem is the memory allocation failed error wich starts every hour any sugestions pls

Thx in advance
