two rigs stopped working today, sapphire nitro+ 8gb

GPU2: Free VRAM: 7.950 GB; used: 0.050 GB
GPU2: Disabling DAG pre-allocation (not enough VRAM)
GPU2: Allocating DAG for epoch #379 (3.96) GB
GPU2: Allocating buffers failed with: clCreateBuffer (-61).

win7 64bit, blockchain beta drivers
restored original bios, installed 20.4.2., same thing
let us know if you manage to fix it, thanks


how much virtual ram?
test another miner like teamred and if it is run, let us know and we look again.
add -eres 0 for test

change os to win10.


Same problem here:

RX480 8GB VRAM 30GB TO 50GB

But with teamred is running!





You have old driver i think. And without information about your system, no one can help. OS and commandline are important to see some mistakes or something else.
