I have a rig with 6 x 6700s and 6 Nvidia cards. Windows 10 with latest updates

Has been working ok on 5.8 but has started causing me issues, generating errors on PM start:

Code:

Failed to compile program: clBuildProgram (-11)
Unable to prepare kernels: clCreateKernel (-46)
Fatal error detected. Restarting.

No idea why, has been working and stable(ish) for months. Maybe windows update.

So, I thought it might be time to update, so updated gfx drivers and trying to update to 5.9d, but just starts and immediately exits Huh

Code:

D:\Test>PhoenixMiner.exe -pool ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555 -pool2 ssl://us1.ethermine.org:5555 -wal 0x008c26f3a2Ca8bdC11e5891e0278c9436B6F5d1E.Rig001
Phoenix Miner 5.9d Windows/msvc - Release build
-----------------------------------------------

CUDA version: 11.0, CUDA runtime: 8.0

D:\Test>

Does the same on two of my other rigs, using both my config.txt and the default startminer.cmd

Am I missing something stupid?

So I managed to sort out my issues with 5.8. Windows was insisting on updating the drivers, I had been relying on the DDU option to prevent driver update but this did not seem to work. So I had to edit the local policy GPEDIT to prevent the AMD cards from getting updated

Back to being stable

Still no idea why PM 5.9 starts and immediately exits tho'

What does nvidia-smi say abt cuda version?

Code:

C:\Windows\system32>nvidia-smi
Tue Jan 25 17:14:28 2022
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| NVIDIA-SMI 511.23 Driver Version: 511.23 CUDA Version: 11.6 |
|-------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+

Try uninstalling/clear the driver with DDU and re-install the driver and if that does not work try an older driver. Don't let windows try to install the drivers.
