Is nvidia1-hash.txt empty right now?

[petrovsky34]

swarm must be running??

[petrovsky34]

0

[petrovsky34]

yes

[MaynardMiner]

Yes, it should be running, and gminer should be started, and hash on screen.

[MaynardMiner]

I want to see if $Test matches mining screen

[petrovsky34]

work))))

[MaynardMiner]

?

How much system resource you use? Is your disk-space full?

[petrovsky34]

[MaynardMiner]

hmmm. Very weird.

If you see it happen again, then run that $Test command, and post here so I can debug.

[petrovsky34]

[petrovsky34]

ok fix in next version of swarm

[MaynardMiner]

lol I would if I know what is wrong. I will do what I can.

[petrovsky34]

what time do you have???

[petrovsky34]

night or day

[petrovsky34]

thank you good night)))

[MaynardMiner]

Midwest US- Evening

[petrovsky34]

thank you good night)))

thank thank thank thank

[MaynardMiner]

Same to you.

I don't have a Russian version of Windows setup, so I don't know if I can 100% fix. I can only just try to change things, and you can report back in, and let me know if it still has issues.

[petrovsky34]

ok in the morning I will put windows 10 english version

[petrovsky34]

thank you friend. God bless you!

[MaynardMiner]

I was able to reproduce:

When I set the default culture to 'ru-RU' (Russian it happens).

So I assume if I force the culture one I know that works: 'en-US' (English US), I believe it will fix it. It will be in next release.

[petrovsky34]

спасибо буду ждать релиза 2.2.4 swarm

[petrovsky34]

thank you will wait for the release of 2.2.4 swarm

[MaynardMiner]

On main git page, green button- "Clone or Download"

Download the source as .zip. Extract it, and run it like you normally would.

It has what I believe is the fix. I would like to know I fixed it before I add to next release.

I have the two main threads for EN-US culture for items like math and date/time. I also made it so that the RAM counter is use CIMinstance instead of systeminfo

[petrovsky34]

[petrovsky34]

Hello how to fix it???

[petrovsky34]

[petrovsky34]

Hello how to fix it???

[MaynardMiner]

Hold on.

I think I pushed something I shouldn't have pushed. Because it wasn't ready yet.

[MaynardMiner]

I checked. That should be fine. You are using the correct -Type arguments, right?

[MaynardMiner]

The only thing I can see that would cause devicelist.txt not being created, is if there is an issue with the arguments. Please double check to make sure there isn't a typo, if not, I will get you the command SWARM uses to get the list of devices on PC. You can run the command get parameters to make sure they match your batch file (in case of typo).

powershell
get-wmiobject -namespace root\cimv2 -class Win32_PnPEntity

Is the command it runs to get the list of devices, then formats them to file. But only formats them if -Type argument is NVIDIA1,NVIDIA2,NVIDIA3 or AMD1

[petrovsky34]

on Windows 8 so writes

[MaynardMiner]

Ah.

Yeah, windows 8 many not have get-wmiobject.

However, you may be able to update powershell to get it. Let me look into it.

[petrovsky34]

I installed Windows 10 waiting for driver installation

[petrovsky34]

put Windows 10 that there were no problems

[petrovsky34]

it's a pity that Windows 8 not working there is better 4гиговые cards and 3 rules are working more algorithms operates

[petrovsky34]

what video cards do you have???

[petrovsky34]

2080ti ???

[MaynardMiner]

Yeah. You may be able to use Windows 8, but you will have update .NET framework, and likely other things. I'm not sure however if the registries are the same, for attaining information on GPU's, RAM, etc. That is why I only support Windows 10.

I suppose once I finish helping another user build a website for monitoring- I will look into building a 'lighter' version in which SWARM will run without having to pull all that information, so it will work on all windows.

Yes. Works with 2080ti, however, some users have issues with the fan control. Some users it works for them, others it doesn't. But mining wise is good.

[petrovsky34]

I ask what you have video card

[petrovsky34]

well if you do that would Windows 8 worked!!!

[MaynardMiner]

Vegas, RX580, 2070, 1080ti, 1050ti, 1070.

I buy when I can find good prices.

[petrovsky34]

I have cheap maps 1050 tix 8 1063 x2

[MaynardMiner]

I mainly use Windows for AMD, Linux for NVIDIA. (but I have cards on both for testing). I find it works best, if you set them both up right.

[petrovsky34]

know what not whether the analogues time viewer???

[MaynardMiner]

analogues time veiwer? I think bad translation. Not sure what you mean.

I have to step away. Be back later to check in.

There is a discord with 200 users who can help you.

[petrovsky34]

ok

[MaynardMiner]

If you download the .zip from master again-

I believe it will work on Windows 8.

But SWARM now requires Powershell Core and latest .NET:

If you could test for me, it would be helpful.

[MaynardMiner]

Proposed fix in 2.2.4 release
