Hi there,

Spent a few hours yesterday trying to figure out a config for 290x, alas to no avail.
So far I can't mine anything, even a bare 280x or a 290 config does not work (GPUs reset all over the place, nothing works).
And my GPUs work very well with LTC, UTC, YAC etc. So it's not a question of whether they are broken or not. They're fine.

Many thanks to whomever helps me out & take care.

How many GPUs, how much RAM and can you post a config you have tried? Perhaps somebody can spot the problem..



Per rig: 2 asus radeon r9 290x GPUs, 24Gb RAM, xxTB disk, win7 64 and vertminer 0.5.3
No matter the options I always the screen flickering before the OS gets back to me with a lousy message telling it had to reinit my GPUs.
I tried the 7950, 280x, 290, and even 290x setting given on the vertminer thread but without success.
I would so love to flip that bic to crisp that chick...

Thanks y'all for your help.




This might not sound right, but it fixed a similar problem I had with one of my rigs recently, re-flash motherboard BIOS.  Don't ask me why or how, it just worked.

I'm sorry but I fail to see why should I reflash the mobo bios because I can't mine vert-scrypt whereas it works perfectly for everything else.
Does not make any sense to me because this can't be a communication problem otherwise it would not work with other scrypts.
I won't do this.



Stranger things have happened...  I run 30 rigs and it's a game of Russian Roulette with each one.

If you've tried a few 290x configs from here http://www.verters.com/vertcoin-hardware-list then post your config and let us take a look.  I use my Vertcoin settings for all Scrypt-N Coins and they run fine, 270x, 280x, 290 and 290x cards...

Are you the handicapped miner dumping?

Hahaha... I am very new to the game but no, I mined 1000 CAI and priced them at .00083.  I'm happy to hold...
