Start multiple instances having different --device parameters (--device 0, --device 1, etc).
What's the command you run? Anyway just specify path to scratchpad.bin you have write access to (ex. --local_scratchpad scratchpad.bin to store it in the same directory as miner).
can someone plz help, the gpu miner wont work across all my rigs, they all spit the same error.
