Hi. I am having trouble with mining ZERO.

I am running 8x GTX 1060 6 GB on windows and when mining with EBWF Equihash 0.5 miner on suprnova mining pool I only get 6/8 GPU's working. Nothing wrong with the GPU's since they work just fine mining something else. The error says out of memory.

Help please

Try to increase the size of the paging file to 20-50GB


Hi all,
   i have a notebook with:
  • intel core i7-8550U
  • 8gb ram DDR4
  • NVIDIA GeForce MX130 with 2gb Vram
  • Windows 10 Pro with latest updates

For me is impossible to mine.
I have this error:

Code:
+-------------------------------------------------+
|         EWBF's Eqihash CUDA miner. v0.5         |
+-------------------------------------------------+
18:30:20 ERROR: Cannot load nvml.

same error with Cuda 8 and Cuda 9.



NVML comes with nvidia drivers, check this file: C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI\nvml.dll and try to copy it into the miner's directory.


Hello EWBF_,
is it possible that you bring 200,9 back too? - just in addition to the other algorithms. Yes, I know ASIC's are more efficient now, but not everybody wants to buy them or can afford them - or even wants them to run at home because they are super hot and super loud. Besides there is a big risk to buy one, because every day there could be an asic fork away like Monero and Bitcoing Gold already did. So I still use your old 0.34b but I think it's outdated now and probably you can create a much more powerful version now. P.S.: I still love to give you my full fee amount, because I honor and respect your work. I know this is hard work and it should not be for nothing. This is hard work to program these miners and like every other work it should be remunerated accordingly!

Hi, thank you, since ASIC is here, I believe Equihash 200,9 will be completely lost for gpu miners very soon. When I finish most of the work with this project, I will look at the situation and decide whether to update the old miner or not. I hope you understand that at present this project is more actual. In any case, many thanks for your support.
