Hi All,

I am having issues with Phoenix miner.
Just so you know, I am new to mining (so don't know anything), so I cannot really diagnose things on my own.
SO:
I use Betterhash (with most recent miner update installed), and my PC config is as follows:
Windows 10 64bit running on AMD Ryzen 3 3200g (with integrated vega8 graphics card), 16GB DDR4 RAM, Asus GT710 graphics card (2GB virtual RAM). I am trying to run your miner on my GPU GT710. I used to run my OS from a SATA SSD 128GB, but have just upgraded to a M.2 NVME SSD 256GB (with 140GB free space)
.
I contacted the Betterhash team, and they told me to set my PC's VIRTUAL MEMORY to at least 32000 MB as Phoenix Miner needs this setting. They also told me to try to add the "-mcdag 1" parameter in BetterHash, in the Advanced Settings. This parameter disables GPU memory overclocking performed by Phoenix Miner during the DAG generation. This means DAG generation will be slower, but the hash rate will remain the same.
All of the above was done, the PC restarted, but the ETHash Phoenix miner is stuck in the "starting position". When looking at what is going on the following error shows up:

Seems to be a memory issue... DOes that mean I need to have more RAM on my PC for it to run? Or do I need to set the virtual memory to bigger values?

Any suggestion on what I could do to get the miner running on my GT710 GPU?

Thanks in advance!

Your GPU didn't have enough VRAM to mine ETH. Need 5gb of VRam or more

Arg!
Ok, thanks for the reply!

Would there be a way to use the SDD storage space to provide extra memory for the GPU?

Nope. But you can mine other coins. I have a 1050 mining UBQ using Zilminer to mine ZIL on the shardpool

Thanks for the tip!
I do not know how to add miners to Betterhash, at least this miner is not in their miner pack...
I do not know how to add miners manually. I might ask them for help.
Anyway, thank you very much for your help!

you're welcome! i use everything stand alone on windows. just check out some videos on youtube about setting up miners and looking up different coins. usually on the pool sites they will have examples of how to setup a specific miner. i only just started mining about 2 or 3 months ago. Good Luck!!
