This miner app is pissing me right off, I cannot get any version past 3.4 to run stable without the OS hanging.  I have tried a load of different settings, drivers, underclock's etc and all the same, app crashes and takes out the OS.  My batch file looks like this:

:BEGIN
start "CryptoNote" /low /wait NsGpuCNMiner.exe -o stratum+tcp://pool.minexmr.com:7777 -p x -u [XMR Address] -a 2 -wd 1 -ee 1
timeout /t 30
GOTO BEGIN
exit

I have tried both 13.12 and 14.6 drivers, Windows 7 and 8.1, I currently have my tri-x cards underclocked to 947/1250 but it also happens with them at stock clocks, I have 6 cards in each rig and nothing I do seems to fix the hangs in OpenCL call, app crash and then OS hang.

Beyond frustrated.

Anyone running similar set-ups, what OS, drivers, miner version etc?

Please create a Linux version of this app, with the 5% fee you have made from everyone surely should fund a Linux version, or maybe even just open source it and let the community make this application better.


I tried your script, it starts the miner every 30s without closing the previous one. So there will be multiple miners running simultaneously.  How do we stop the previous miner and start a new one?

Is it possible to write a script to test if the miner is running smoothly, if not, then stop the miner and start and a new one?
