Hey man! thanks for the help as always.

System specs:

Intel Pentium D CPU 3.20 GHZ
1GB ram
Windows 7 64 bit

im including all screenshots from CPUID

I have installed visual basic 2010 and then also installed visual basic 2012 after reading cryptominingblog.. not sure if that has anything to do with it.

I will get home and try removing one of the cards to see if that helps.

Thanks for all your help gents, I'll be sure to tip to all that have offered suggestions.

how many cards did you say you have in that machine?
2 obvious things to check, go to task manager and see what cpu usage and memory usage you have.

each ccminer instance will use atleast 50MB ram, windows 7 is a hog aswell.
you may find your cpu is overloaded and you dont have enough memory

ooo and one last thing, what gen pci-e does your motherboard have? if your running DDR2 which you are, i would expect there to be an issue with the PCI-E version, probably only 1.1

Two cards are in this machine (2 x zotac 750 TI single fan)

your hunch was right! It IS pci e v1.1

my CPU usage is around 35-50% hovering and each ccminer instance is taking ~ 5,588 K

my memory is hovering around 52% (just have ccminers running nothing else)

any way around this? Do you think its a limitation of memory or more the PCI express slot itself?

to get the nicer rates I guess id have to set this up on a newer machine? (one with PCI express 2.0?)
