I'm a bit late to the party but i like magic, and it would be awesome if the landlord would actually pay me to live here (fixed rent baby Wink

I have a Vista 64 work/game rig with a Intel Core 2 e8500 and a HD4870 X2, which lists in GPU Caps OpenCL as two RV770's and a Core2 (thats 3 devices, mining will be fun; it's know for being a hot bitch). I updated my ancient drivers today with newest Catalyst 11.5 and OpenCL 2.4. After all the basic mistakes i now seemed to have DiabloMiner running:

C:\BitCoin\DiabloMiner>DiabloMiner-Windows.exe -u login -p secret -w 64
[11-6-11 11:53:59] Started
[11-6-11 11:53:59] Connecting to: http://127.0.0.1:8332/
[11-6-11 11:53:59] Using AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing OpenCL 1.1 AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4 (595.10)
[11-6-11 11:54:00] Added ATI RV770 (#1) (10 CU, local work size of 64)

but then.. nothing.. the wiki says: A few lines of output will scroll by, followed by "waiting..." or error messages, but this just sits there.

I look into GPU Caps and it says GPU load 2%, Catalyst panel tells me temp stays cool.

I tried fiddling with options but i dont' really understand what's going on. Anyone got suggestions or some angle of attack? (Besides installing linux that is.)
