guys you don't need to reinstall windows if u got the 1803 update.

just revert to the 1709 version, its done in less then 10 minutes.

https://pureinfotech.com/uninstall-windows-10-1803-april-2018-update/


Must try this, its possible to work,  I was to "angry" Smiley to dig more so I have installed fresh 1709.


As it's a fresh install I can't roll back.

Hi

I get same problems on win10 x64 after April 2018 Update,
and I do not manage to repair it only by reinstalling win10 without April 2018 Update.


I hope it will help you

JS

Probably a stupid question, but How do I install it without the April Release? I do seem to find it on the internet, nor do I find a setting during the installation.

Just need to find one win10 install kit before April Release, install without being connected to the internet,
disable all windows updates (you can find how to by Google) and then you can connect.

Thanks, will try that in the weekend with a fresh install.

My rig is working fine with the last update of windows 10. That's more like the driver issue (after windows updates). You were mentioning above that you were using RX series (580), have you tried installing the newest driver (Adrenalin)? (then don't forget to switch to compute mode)

I did try Adrenalin as well. was not working neither. I did not put it to compute mode, but I assume that that is just to boost the hash rate. I will try again in the weekend. Now I don't have time for it

Thanks,

I will try that. I just tried to do it all over again.

Before removing the drivers it was at least finding 3 of my GPUS (RX580), and they were mining at a whopping 17MH/s  Smiley.

I uninstall and install again and still the same thing. So there must definitly be something wrong with the the drivers or like you say the windows upgrade.

Will try it now again.

Claymore miner issue
by
Pekine
on 03/06/2018, 13:33:30 UTC
Hi All,

I had my Ethereum miner up and running for more or less a year now, with goo and stable Hash rates. Now I had to restart and Windows was broken. So I had no other option than to reinstall it all. I followed exactly the same step as I did before, but for some reason when I open claymore miner it does not come further than:
 ETH: 1 Pool is specified
 Main Ethereum poo is eu1.ehtermine.org:4444
 DCR: 0 pool is specified.


When I wait for a while the following message comes up:

- Miner cannot initialize for 5 minutes, need to restart miner!
Restarting OK, exit ....

And it starts again.

I have followed I think all the correct steps:
1) Installed Windows 10 - 64 Bit
2) General settings (Assign virtual memory, password settings, Prevent automatic updates
3) Download the last Blockchain drivers from AMD 64 Bit - https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Radeon-Software-Crimson-ReLive-Edition-Beta-for-Blockchain-Compute-Release-Notes.aspx
4) Remove the AMD drivers with DDU (in Safe mode)
5) Install the new AMD Blcokchain drivers
6) Download Claymore miner v11.8
7) Change bat file and test

I Have tried:
1) Different versions of Claymore
2) Different times to re install and install the drivers
3) The GPU's show up pin my AMD software - and in device management
4) Speecy test say they work fine

However
1) The fans are not running
2) possmark performance test does not find the GPU's

Anybody an idea an what to do? Is restarting xith a frech windows install the only option? If so what are the steps to pay attention to, to make sure it will work good the next time.

A 400 wat power supply will only be able to feed 1 high end GPU (around 170 a card). + you need to add the MB and other. And You should always have like 10 to 15% REserve on your power.

So I would advice you to buy a platinum power supply of higher wattage if you really want to build a good rig.

You don't need to put everything into a new rig. You can start with 3 cards alone and buy some coins.

Re: Your experience with AMD Radeon 570/580 memory brands
by

on 04/03/2018, 12:31:22 UTC
My experience

Sapphire Radeon 570 Nitro+ 8GB Micron
These cards are awesome. With polaris bios editor one time click patch + OC and undervolt I get 30.9 hashrate on eth.
1150/850 2150/850 powerlimit 70%. 13gpu + mb etc. draw 1525W from the wall.
0 errors

Sapphire Radeon 570 Nitro+ 8GB Hynix
Good enough. One time click patch + oc and undervolt. I get about 28.x and 29.x hashrate on eth.
I dont remember oc and undervolt settings, but I think it was 1200/900 2100/850.
0 errors

Sapphire Radeon 570 Nitro+ 8GB Samsung Micron
I hate these cards. Used one time click patch (ubermix 3.1 for samsung and GOOD for micron). I get about 27.5-28.9 hashrate on eth.
1175/975 1975/850, powerlimit 70%. Some cards show 0 errors, some 625 error and one card 23000 errors after 3 hours mining. They are so sensitive! They use a little bit more power than micron and at the same time they have less hashrate.

Sapphire Radeon 570 Nitro+ 8GB Micron Samsung
I havent tested this card yet. What is the difference between Micron Samsung and Samsung Micron?

Request: Anyone have the original bios of radeon 570 Micron Samsung? (Not Samsung Micron) I think I f**** up this bios. Forgot to take backup.

Whenever I test new settings that is working I will update this post. Please keep this thread nice without ten thousands of posts (update your post when new settings are successful).

I get 32mH/s with hynix, Undervolted to 800 memory 2250. quite happy about them.

Re: Why do you small timers even bother?

Why even bother to mine with a few minres and earn a couple of dollars a day.  Mining is only worth it if you can build a big farm with a lot of capital.  Most of you guys are better off working a regular job and just buying crypto.

Like mining is a full time job if you have a few miners. You set it up and it runs. So you can perfectly work normally next to having a couple of rigs. And buy coins that you are not mining.

and not all is about money, you can have fun looking some new things up and learn about new interesting things.

I had the issue as well that my cards gave 17 hash. My isseu was that I the driver I ahd installed had a bug.

de-install your driver with DDU and install the latest blockchain driver. Now my cards are running at 32 mh/s

It would be very interesting to know what will be the cost of video cards rx580 by piece and if purchased wholesale. Could you then unsubscribe as you will know... Wink

I can buy these for 530 EUR. But, I wnat to know what I can mine with it? Can I mine multiple curencies or ETH only and also I want to know amount of Mhs? 6 GPU rig is going to cost me around 3.5K EUR... Thanks!

You can mine more coins with them, e.g Monereo, ZEC, ETC, you can dual mine as well (with Decred, Sia coin, Verge, ...) and so on. The Hashrate of a RX580 is around 30 to 32mH/s for ETH depending on the brand and the memory. 530€ is a little expensive. Not sure which country you are from. I bought mine in the Netherlands for 300 to 350€. So you might do a trip there as it could save you some.

I have free power source and want to plug in one rig for start. Which GPU's do you recomend me? Thanks!


PS:

What about this GPU?

AMD Radeon RX580 Sapphire NITRO+ 8GB GDDR5, 2xHDMI/2xDP/256bit/11265-01-20G

These are good GPU's. Mine run very stable (32mH/s for ETH). They do use quite some power. So depending on the power cost you might go for an 570. Not sure what their hashrate is.

Re: What would you mine with CPU only and free electricity?
by

on 25/02/2018, 19:47:53 UTC
some coins that you can mine by CPU are:
- Aeon
- IntenseCoin
- Electroneum
- Fantom coin

But don't get your hopes to high, as you will not get rich of it, nor make big profit
