Hmm, unfortunately there seems to be a small but annoying bug - if you start with clean NHM (without config) then the entered Bitcoin address is not stored in config.json and therefore not used in the benchmark. We'll release a bugfix soon, meanwhile just "Start" miner for a few moments (will start mining on first algo - X11), then Stop miner, close NHM. Then start NHM again and you should be able to run benchmark.

Did that. Ethereum is still not running in the benchmark.. I'll download it again.

yes mine seems to be stuck on ethereum as well..

wonder if its timing out because its taking too long to download the dag..
Do you have to close yours with the Task Manager ?
it says please wait.. been like that for over 10 minutes..
i pushed stop and it doesnt stop.. seems stuck.

the system is idle..


ok edit.


the app isnt writing to the directory.. its the problem with the bitcoin address.. i just restarted and now all the benchmarks are zero.

going to try it as admin.


edit 2, didnt work.

i just manually set the eth benchmark and now it seems to be working.

so once the dag was made you can benchmark..
so the work around would be to put a high number manually in, like 50000000 then hit start, let it make the dag and stop and it run the benchmark.


To @Stein & @aarons6 :
Ethereum takes a while to create the DAG file. It may take around 10 minutes on a relatively new CPU to create it. Then the benchmark would start and you should see some GPU usage. Regarding the Bitcoin address, it will be fixed soon. Thanks for the feedback  Wink
