I'm having problems getting the miner to work (cannot allocate big buffer for DAG).

I've tried increasing page file to 17-25GB, using the env. variables and even using the benchmark 10 flag. Nothing works, while etherminer is working fine.

I have never been able to run this miner. Any suggestions?

Thank you.

I left it and let it restart itself 10-12 times and then it started to work.

I'm guessing this isn't normal?

Yup. Only hints I have is (1 ) check your page file. You have a single card so you shouldn't need to much, just say 4 GB. (2) try a clean reinstalation of drivers or a install a different version
