Can't mine #456

Closed HunEQ closed 2 years ago

HunEQ commented 2 years ago

I tried mining with kawpow - Ravencoin and GPU only but it doesn't work. It connects to the pool and shows the worker, but soon after it stops so the pool reports 0.0 MH/s. Waited 30 minutes but it did not change. Tried two different pools and different ports but still doesn't work.

What GPU do you have? Use something like MSI Afterburner or something similar to see if it's mining.

I'm on a 2070 Super Mobile. Maybe it doesn't work for laptops? I'm just testing for now.

When I check temps it goes up at the start but then it cools down and no other miner behaves like this. 30 minutes and no income reported in the pool, I don't think it's mining and I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong. XMR mining works fine.

Unrelated, but can you run two instances and mine XMR and RVN on the same computer?

UnamSanctam commented 2 years ago

It should work for laptops, I've tried it on mine and that worked. You can run two at once but you should then choose different "Inject Into" for both and the two watchdogs (if enabled on both) might "fight" each other but that doesn't matter much. Have you ever mined Ravencoin with any other miner and it worked? Personally I can't mine Ravencoin at all no matter which miner I use (tried all miners that supports Ravencoin) which is why I'm wondering in case the problem is similar. It going up at the start is normal for Ravencoin (and others like Ethereum) since it's generating the DAG and everything else, can you run this MinerCheck3.zip and screenshot what it reports (but censor your wallet address)?

Yes, I've checked and T-rex works for mining Ravencoin on this laptop.

Here you go

MinerCheck

Can you try mining with https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig and see what happens (since that is what the miner is based on)? You can copy the miner arguments in your screenshot there and run the xmrig with those in case it has something to do with xmrig.

It won't let me use CUDA, don't know why. It tries to mine using CPU even if disabled and KawPow is not compatible. Does it look like an issue on xmrig's side?

UnamSanctam commented 2 years ago

Sorry for the late response, are your drivers updated? Could also be something like the CUDA libraries didn't get there correctly, you can check the %AppData%\Microsoft\Libs folder too see if there are files there.

HunEQ commented 2 years ago

I've reinstalled the drivers and CUDA library and it finally works now. Thank you very much!

Ah great that it works, good job.
