Help guys. I had checked on my miner and it wasnt waking up, gpu's were cold.

Restarted and have been getting this error:

22:53:43:814   f68   GPU 0, GpuMiner dk1a failed -36
22:53:43:818   928   GPU 1, GpuMiner dk1a failed -36
22:53:43:832   fd8   GPU 0, GpuMiner dk2an0 failed -36
22:53:43:838   ac   GPU 1, GpuMiner dk2an0 failed -36
22:53:43:842   e80   GPU 0, GpuMiner dk2an0 failed -36
22:53:43:854   a5c   GPU 1, GpuMiner dk2an0 failed -36

22:53:43:870   6b8   GPU 1, GpuMiner dk2an0 failed -36

I've checked my virtual memory, ran a driver uninstaller and reinstalled the blockchain driver, i've done several restarts, i've tried uninstalling the driver again in safe mode, booting with 1 gpu, reinstalling driver, rebooting and still get the same error. I've tried a different pool, i've tried a fresh install of the miner.

nothing is working!!!!

I'm about to just reinstall windows!!!

Could really use some help, its been running this in a loop for 24  hours now. i dont understand what the issue is.

If you really need some help you should give more info.
1. OS version
2. Driver version
3. GPU version|make
4. CPU
5. Installed RAM
6. Virtual memory settings
7. clinfo.txt from your system
8. Environmental variables
9. Miner initialisation string|config files

If it is not that easy just check for you virtual memory settings to be set not to automatic but to value of TOTAL GPU RAM of ALL GPUs + TOTAL RAM of your system (or more). If the settings works you can try to lower it trying to get your system down again :-)



Windows 7 64 out of the box without updates

Athlon ii x2 2.6ghz
2gb ddr2 400
Vmem 1684gb min 17600 max

I feel like I've tried everything. I have a nearly identical rig as well except it has a phenom ii x3 2.7 and 4gb ddr2 and x2 r9 290x 4gb Asus direct cu ii with the same miner and config with no issues.

I brought the system down to test some old graphics cards before I sold them, booted then into Linux as to not mess up my Windows config/drivers. After that the system gives me the above errors and the miner just continuously restarts itself.

It doesn't appear to be a driver issue, I downloaded 3dmark and it seems to run fine.

I'm out of things to try!
