I upgraded from old 5.2c miner (due to DAG size) to 5.8c and now miner even doesn't start ... any suggestions?

We use 388.71 drivers (also on other working machines).

setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

I have the same problem. Solved it by updating to 460.89. Yours are too old.

I ended up with NBMiner + MSI Afterburner (oldschool like 2017  Grin Grin Grin) - no drivers reinstall - hashrate almost the same, but working. The reason behind that is windows not updated since install (Windows 10 Version 1703, 10.0.15063).



my win rigs are win10 1607, 14smth, never had any issues related to OS.
