Hey, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask:
Rig continually worked until yesterday morning, and then in logs I saw devfee couldn't mine, and tried several times during night on eu1.ethermine.org pool without success.
I am trying to connect since then and I get the error:

Quote
ETH: Stratum - Cannot connect to eu1.ethermine.org:4444
ETH: Stratum - Failed to connect, retry in 20 sec...

I tried:
  • older and latest version of Claymore
  • restart miner/PC
  • restart router
  • options like -esm 0-3
  • different miners
  • different pools
  • turn off windows firewall
  • turn of windows defender
  • updated drivers
  • googling similar problems with no success

I'm using the basic configuration:
Quote
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal 0xXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -epsw x

I haven't done anything network-wise since then, so I doubt port could be the problem, and there were no Windows updates in the meantime.

Do you guys maybe have an idea of what might be the problem and what could I do more?

In a terminal window try:

ipconfig /flushdns

I just tried it, get the same error.

not a solution but maybe a workaround:
-allpools 1

So, i readed much posts and i am confused little, is latest claymore miner works with win7 blockchain drivers or what is best to use to have back results on our RX 400/500 models back to 30mh/s ?
I know there was much argue about that but there was also much incorrect answers so what is final conclusion, because i refuse to use win10, only win7.
What must be used to work with undervolt and etc?
There is nothing that will work with win 7 in combination with the new block chain driver. it has an issue under windows 7 if you want to use it you will need windows 10
Your only solution is to mine another Ethash coin that is on a lower dag
If you find win7 not working with blockchain driver, try this unofficial driver: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2068446.0. I can confirm it supports 6GPU with win10, even if VGAs are mixed RX4xx and RX5xx.

On Win10 you can go with official blockchain driver.

With blockchain and unofficial driver above (on Win7 and also on Win10), I use the following to tune:
claymore parameters for clocks, voltages, power limit:
-cclock
-cvddc
-mclock
-mvddc
-powlim
and for fan speeds and temperatures: WattTool
