Hello,
This is my first foray into mining and I am just testing the waters with my standard desktop. I am getting the below errors and was hoping someone could explain to me what is happening and why it's not working. I am using an AMD R7 200 series with Claymores AMD Zcash AMD GPU miner. I know this isn't optimal for mining. Again, I am just trying to figure it out right now. Thank you for any help.
Error parsing line 5 of config.txt
UNKNOWN OPTION GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR
UNKNOWN OPTION 1
UNKNOWN OPTION GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE
UNKNOWN OPTION 100
UNKNOWN OPTION GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS
UNKNOWN OPTION 1
UNKNOWN OPTION GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT
UNKNOWN OPTION 100
UNKNOWN OPTION GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT
UNKNOWN OPTION 100
The above errors show up as soon as the miner starts running. Additionally once the miner starts running I receive the message below with what I think is an error:
Pool sets new share target: 0x00010000 (diff: 65535H)
ZEC: Authorization failed
: ("id":2,"result":false,"error":null)
Remove those lines from config.txt and add them to start.bat
set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
set GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
set GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 1
set GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
ZecMiner64.exe
Config.txt should look something like
-zpool europe.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20570
-zwal USER.RIG1
-zpsw z
#-tt 75
#-i 6
