I'm having issues on my everyday computer. The phoenixminer runs fine for 25-65 minutes before the miner just pauses and says press any key to continue. I don't see an error message and I've checked the logs too. I've tried this with an AMD 480, Nvidia 1070, and now a 3090. No matter what I try, this happens to me. I've been monitoring temps and checking for errors with HwInfo and I see nothing. Thank you.


What is the sleep time on the computer?  Screen saver?  Sounds like something is occuring at a set interval that is causing he miner to stop.



No sleep timer. I've set everything to always on. No screen saver either. That's what I figured as well but can't seem to figure it out but would those things really cause the miner to pause? Also, when unpause the program just closes and I have to restart the miner.

Make sure you dont have any bios settings for idling the cpu or lowering usage....i always disable this but since it happens to all the different cards its most likey something at board level or OS level.  Also disable any virtualization in the cpu as this can also cause issues.

Was gonna suggest watching temps but sounds like you have eliminated that as well i wouldnt expect all 3 cards to suffer from it.
