Shenrox:  In the Monitor tab you can already set it to restart the miner or computer if the hashrate falls below a certain threshold. There isn't an option yet for restarting if it exceeds a threshold.


Hi, yes i found it and it works great, but sometimes my display driver "crashes and recovers...." (what is says in the bottom of the screen) and then cgminer and cgwatcher will both show that my hash-rate is going up exponentially. (First time found it displaying 700Mhs) Would it be possible to add the feature for when it exceeds XXX hash-rate that it also restarts, or if it could detect that the display driver has crashed.

I'm running 2 @ Gigabyte R9 280X's undervolted to 1.075V as opposed to 1.2V because i get higher hash-rates (more stable) and it runs about 20 Degrees Celsius cooler.
When i used 1 card it ran perfect for hours on end, but when i added the second it would crash and recover randomly, sometimes a few minutes, other times a few hours. (This only happens while mining, but hasn't happened yet while gaming). Sorry, now i feel like i'm hijacking this thread...

Thanks for the awesome program
