I just posted another update. I changed the GPU initialization to only happen once sgminer goes to starts hashing on a pool. This might prevent unnecessary kernels from loading or algo switching to happen at startup.

Yeah, where'd you come from dude?  Can you fix up the porting to Windows?
he is most likely ystarnaud, one of the sgminer devs

Yep.

i cant even get the miner to start most of the time with this build
it just stays on sgminer started then after a while it quits
here is the build, but be sure to test this before you overwrite your old version as it does not work for me most of the time

Before committing my changes I tested this build with 2 of my configs and platinum4's config. I had no issues. But I just tested with yours and you're correct there is an issue. I'll try to find out what's in your config that this build doesnt like and submit another fix...
thank you for the hard work
