I have put up a dedicated mining computer now, and I'm having a lot of problems with it, but I'll take one at a time. I am running GUIMiner
I'm getting this error message:
2013-05-11 16:26:06: Listener for "OpenCL Slush's": stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 11/05/2013 16:26:06, Verification failed, check hardware! (0:0:Juniper, 2b5342eb)
when I am running an OpenCL miner connected to your pool.
You have said to others having this problem that it is most likely hardware or driver error, but I can run Phoenix (with BitcoinPool.com) without problems. What could it be? I have tried different flags.
PS: I tried running an OpenCL miner on BitcoinPool.com and I get the same problem:
2013-05-11 16:38:50: Listener for "OCL BCPool": bitcoinpool.com:8334 11/05/2013 16:38:50, Verification failed, check hardware! (0:0:Juniper, 74f69135)
I could try the other graphics card (that has other drivers), but please don't ask me to do it today... I have spent at least 6 hours and 20 reboots on trying to get the graphics cards working as I want, but they still don't. Nothing seems to work the way I want it to today.
with my initial setup i set GIUMiner ( the default tab ) to Slush's for pool and entered in my user name, with the Stratum changes you have 2 options, set up the mining proxy client or set to ' other ' for the server and port 3333
you could try stratum3.bitcoin.cz or stratum2.bitcoin.cz and do not forget your worker username and password as it ' logs in for work '
I have server set to ' other ', stratum.bitcoin.cz and port 3333, and now I also tried the other two addresses. No difference.
I think the problem is in this end. I'll try to reinstall GUIMiner, but I don't think that it will help. I don't think it is the graphics card or the driver, because Phoenix works. I was running XP on my other computer, this one is 7. Doesn't poclbm-mod (I think it is mod, that comes with the latest GUIMiner) work in Windows 7?
DOH! forgot to mention you need to set up an exception in windows firewall so GUIMiner can talk out of the system!
Also get the mining proxy ( pre set to talk to Slush's pool anyway ) and try with server set to 'local host' port 8332.
I'm on XP so i got the warning the first ( and only time ) i started GUIMiner so sorry for totaly forgetting you have to let it talk out of your system. If you also have a router this is probably one way to do it ( not advised ) is to set that pc as Enable DMZ Host - that pc. Usually in your router's advanced settings under fire wall. It is NOT advised as anything can get in that way ( but it works ).
[EDIT]
and last NMC credit for me was the following ( using mining proxy ie Stratum )
