CGminer Help with CryptoCoinMine

[dreamwatcher]

cryptocoinmines down or at least not taking any new clients at this time. please wait in the waiting room with the others. lol

hey paint just noticed if your trying to mine with a gpu..... your clock and mem engine settings say 0 (zero) 0-0. to set it up use gpu caps veiwer to see your settings and make your engine clock 25 more than it says and set mem to about a third or half.
try that.


if im wrong guys help a brother miner out.

I just registered a test account without any issues. You do need to put in a valid e-mail address and follow the link in the registration e-mail to unlock and use the account.
If yo still have problems, just PM me the account name you tried to register under and i will unlock it by hand.

Ipaint,

I do not know what miner/screen you are getting those numbers from. What mining software are you trying to use?

[ipaint]

Dream, I got the info from Geek3D GPU Caps Viewer and I'm trying to get CGMiner working.

[jimbo]

thats the same caps veiwer i got
 now use max clock number and add 25 to it so its 785 in yor conf file and mem  1/3 is 266. 6   in ur conf file

[ipaint]

This is what I have in my conf file. Every time I add "kernel" : "scrypt", and or "scrypt" : true, I get errors or it crashes.

Looks like your JSON is off-kilter.  Given the current values, I think it should be like this:

            }
         ],

All the code is there, I missed it or something when I copied and posted it.

[tadspoles]

It may be crashing or erroring out because it's starting to work but the other values are incorrect for your card.

[jimbo]

change your kernel to-       poclbm
vectors=0
intensity=0

if it works increase intensity (-20 through 20 is the scale )
change vectors to 1
 

[jimbo]

also in your engine you have to put the max you have plus the 25 added to it so it looks like this       760-785  also to have them switch around lol   the numbers for engine and mem need switched memclock is 266.6 not engine lol hope this helps   


edit: i noticed up a few post i said max clock i meant engine sorry bout that

[jimbo]

lookup gap=0
thread concurrency=0
worksize=512

[jimbo]

now if this works watch it for 5 mins notice ur speed. slowly increase your memclock by 10 or so(restarting each time you change your conf) til u see it going down in speed then back it down where you get the most out of it.  you caps veiwer to watch those temps video cards can run into the 125 degrees mines a steady 111 degrees mining

[jimbo]

i didnt us the                            "name" : "CryptoCoinMine (gld.cryptocoinmine.com)",                        line.

You must use the "scrypt" kernel or no shares will accepted by the pool.

diablo, polcbm, phatk are all SHA_256 hash kernels.

A couple of things to try:

First delete all the files that end in .bin in your cgminer directory. These are the compiled version of the CL files that CGminer creates on the fly depending on the hardware it sees.

Second: there a couple of enviromental variables that need to be set for Cgminer to work correctly. I use a small script to start Cgminer.

cg.sh -->

Code: [Select]

#! /bin/bash
export DISPLAY=:0
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=50
./cgminer
Make sure to set cg.sh to executable.

chmod+x cg.sh

start Cgminer with the cg.sh script

Some people use 40 or even 100 value on the 'alloc_percent' line. Experiment to see what works best for you.

Thanks for the help everyone, but I more or less gave up for now. I gotta paint a few paintings, so I'll get back to it. But I did get 600 Kh/s but it wouldn't get any shares or connect to the pool. I'll keep playing with the settings and see what happens.

[ipaint]

It was bugging me so I did some painting and started checking this out again

I was reviewing the files and there is only scrypt130511.cl for Scrypt is there any other scrypt files I can try or is that it? Because when ever I use scrypt in the .conf I get errors.

dreamwatcher I have no idea how to do what you posted. I am only setting up the .conf file then I just click on cgminer.exe to make it run. Anything past that I have no idea how to do it.

Added:

With these settings I am getting about +- 625 Kh/s But it's not connecting to the pool and no shares. I assume it's because I can't use scrypt without errors.
