Re: PhoenixMiner 2.9e: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Windows)

Hello all - could really use some help here.

I switched from Claymore 11.6 to PhoenixMiner 2.9e due to the DAG and MSWindows 10 issues that prevent the nVidia 1060 3GB cards from working.  However for the last 3 weeks I have been getting an illegal memory error:

 GPU10 CUDART error in CudaProgram.cu:127 : an illegal memory access was encountered (77)
2018.05.15:15:13:00.328: GPU11 CUDA error in CudaProgram.cu:102 : an illegal memory access was encountered (700)

To be clear, I can no longer get the nVidia 1060 cards to work with Claymore or PhoenixMiner on ETH or PIRL....

OC'ing the cards seems to be a common cause, but I'm not OCing the cards, I can't even get to the point of doing that...

Would welcome any thoughts, I can't seem to find any solutions online.

do you have at least 19 gig virtual memory on your system, might be a reason if its too little.

I've actually set Virtual Memory as:  - minimum set to 60,000, max set to 160,000

And I'm fine not mining ETH, I can't mine PIRL either right now, which is the real conundrum as it's DAG should easily be supported by the 3GB cards.

Hi,

I recently installed the PhoenixMiner 2.9e, moving from Claymore where I was mining ETH to now mine PIRL and am having some issues, hoping you all can help me resolve.  I get a CUDA error 377 out of memory error on the nVidia cards (1060 3 GB),  the AMD cards work fine.

Rig:

nvidia driver 388.59 (I've tried an older 37X.xx version, did not help)
Virtual Memory - minimum set to 60,000, max set to 160,000.
Set to mine PIRL so that the DAG is not a problem

This rig has been successfully with claymore on ETH for several months. Then MS pushed the update that 'killed' the 1060's 3GB from being able to mine ETH.  Switched to your miner and PIRL to keep using them.

Seems your are using your ETH wallet to mine pirl, you must have a pirl wallet.
The pool is an ETH pool, you must log in a PIRL pool

IAMTUTU - Thanks for finding my additional error!  In my haste of copying pasting between bat files, I jacked that all up.  Got that part fixed, but am getting this error.

See thread..
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2647654.msg31966965#msg31966965


Appreciate the thought - I've reviewed that thread.  The problem here is that the GPUs are not OC'ed at all and the errors are thrown right after starting the miner, so the nvidia GPUs never have a chance to start mining.

Likely just the overclock setting needs to be lowered...

Re: 8 card limit on Windows is Removed!

All - The following is my email exchange with ASRock support.  Thought it may be helpful to others.  The 'hack' below did NOT work for me.  I had to roll back to an earlier build AND had to do the hack.

Rig:
H110ProBTC+
Trying to build 12 GPU rig, can only get 7 cards running
8 - 1060 EVGA GTX GPUs
8 GB RAM
Windows 10 Pro 1709

I am still having issues with this motherboard.  I have a somewhat bizarre situation.

Regardless of the number of GPUs I have installed in the MB, device manager throws a code 43 on the 3rd from the bottom in the device manager list.  Meaning, if I have 10 cards installed, the 8th card is not working and shows code 43.  If I only have 6 cards installed, then the 4 the card throws the code.

I've used DDU to uninstall and then reinstall Nvidia's drivers at least 4 times.

Thoughts?
