If anyone can get this working with Nicehash miner I'll give you .05 BTC.

Already sent you a pm a while ago :p Willing to help you and i don't need btc. No worries!

It'd rather not do it using a virtual desktop. With it blue screening it would be a pain anyway.

The blue screen definitely has something to do with the auto switching portion and not sgminer itself.  It only blues screens when I run the runme.bat or when I try to benchmark or mine using nicehashminer.exe.

If I run sgminer using my own bat file it doesn't crash but it goes to a black CMD window after showing version info.

The nicehash site shows a miner connected but 0 accepted 0 rejected.

The log file of sgminer show it starting up but not doing anything.

BFGminer does run but I never get any accepted but it does show info and not just a black window after version info.

So I might have 2 problems. 1) Nicehash miner Blue screens. 2) SGminer doesn't display anything after the version info but also doesn't mine.

I have the latest ATI drivers installed but I have tried to install 15.7.1.

I installed the latest APP SDK.

I've tried older versions of SGminer.

I'm not sure what else to try. Maybe if I can get it even working with another miner program so I at least know its working correctly. My problem is I have no idea of what switches to put in the bat files. I know the card works good because I've tried playing ARK Survival and Skyrim.





No problem, just want to help out.

Have you tried mining Ethereum?

Does that work?

You already tried to use the stock sgminer with stock kernel/binaries right?

put your runme.bat and *.conf file @ paste bin or so and show it here.


But your issues are driver issues or something i think.

Try ethereum first. you can find a windows version @  cryptomining-blog.

Let me know how it went.
