Greetings IrishTR,
I don't know what teamviewer is But it's a new year and I'll try anything. At a suggestion i downloaded cgminer v.3.1.1 put in this "-w 256 -g 2 -i 13 --shaders 2048 --thread-concurrency 8192" and the same results.

17.60 KH/s.... This is driving me up a wall. I am open for any help you or anyone else would be so kind to offer.
Device manager sees all the cards ( 4 AMD Radeon 7970) I built this with no experience building so if there is something I didn't download that I need I wouldn't know it ( I don't know what I don't know if you get my meaning)

Right now in the pool it says 64 KH/s , whats the deal? I plugged in some of the numbers you gave me but things stay the same.

« on: December 31, 2013, 09:19:41 AM »setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://your pool/port -u user name created in pool -p password created in pool --auto-fan --thread-concurrency 10240 -I 13 -g 2
just doubleclick your .bat file when done and it should open cgminer and hopefully start mining away
--thread-concurrency might have to be changed for your cards but that is the one I use for my 7970's hope this helps
So these are the parameters my friend put in the bat file and the hash rate is 17.67 Kh/s for all 4 GPU. Seems to be running without a hitch but my friend sizzflair is talking 700 - 800 per card I imagine this rig needs some tweeking. How do I ramp it up a bit?
I'm just so happy to be participating in this revolutionary new technology, I's been quite a learning curve and there is still so much to learn. Any guidance on getting the hash rate up would be appreciated.
The PSU seems to be a very good one and I like that its modular.

Thanks for getting back to me folks,
I have chores to do but I will be back at it later this afternoon
@ sizzflair, I am using Windows 7 64bit. Could you explain having to "put cgminer.exe at the front of all that" .
@dustin thanks a million, I'll try and point at a pool that is operational. Any suggestions?
Thanks again all, I have some renewed energy to go at this monster!

This is my first computer build and I'm in way over my head. I was working for many days with a defective motherboard that almost drove me out of my mind. I have a new motherboard and all seems to be working fine.
I have:
EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 1500 Classified
ATX 12v/EPS 12v 1650 1500W 80 PLUS
Gold Power Supply 120-PG-1500-VR
Gigabyte Radeon HD 7970 WF 3X GHz Edition
3GB GDDR5 PCI-Express 3.0 DVI.I/HDMI?2X mini-
DP Crossfire Ready Graphics Card, the computer has 4 of these.
AMD A4-530 APU 3.4 GHz
Click on this to get a good look at it:

Working with "GoldCoin: How to mine with a GPU using CGMiner"
I have very little to no experience with computers and coding. While I can download and unzip the file and create a short cut the next part of this I don;t understand at all!
"3. Create a shortcut to cgminer.exe, edit the properties of the shortcut and append to the target the required parameters mentioned below."
I put this in the Target and it says the path is no good! --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://gld.cryptocoinmine.com:2020 -u TsonicTsunami.1 -p xxxxxx
I am exhausted, please help! THANKS!
I have to get away from this machine and take the dog for a walk before I go postal on it. I have been working on this miner for over two weeks and I'm starting to loose it!

I have been at this all day!

So I had video in the first card and after a few shut downs and restarts I could not get video with the second card. So in my desperation I hot plugged the second card while I had video on the first and both cards are running now and I cave video. Now to load the mining software !

Okay I'll leave windows as is .
I'm having trouble with the second card. I established video with the first card. do I plug the monitor into the second card or leave it in the first card. do I have to return to the BIOS and set up the new card? I am not getting a signal through the second card

My wireless connection is super slow ( U verse ). Windows update takes for ever. Should I disable that function and where can I do it. I'm an Apple guy so this is my first Wintel in a long time. Man I am so happy. I thought constantly plugging and unplugging the cards would screw them up, I am very relieved . I snapped off one of the clips from the motherboard removing one of the cards the first time but it seems minor and should not interfere with the performance of the board ( I hope)
