Sorry, I don't have the instructions but I would go with ethos, pay a little fees but has alot better stability, monitoring, scalability. With ethos is peace of mind!

GTX 1060 3 GB's are wokring in ethos as it was before.

[ZhongOu]

How you make 35 gb file and where to do that?

[SicKMinD37]

Today i have the same problem after update win 10, i solve it setting up the virtual memory to 32gb

My rig have 4 gtx1070 8gb and 3 gtx1060 6gb driver 397.64

[theebuddylee]

I ran into the issue on an all 1070 8GB rig. Had to update to 11.7 and increase virtual to 20GB. Very strange

[pioniere]

I moved to HiveOS and haven't had a problem since. No hassles with drivers or virtual memory, plus I'm getting slightly higher hashrates. Windows is a piece of shit. Do yourself a favor and mine using a different OS.

-lidag 1 on my gtx 1070 resolved. thank you

-eres this setting is related to Ethereum mining stability. Every next Ethereum epoch requires a bit more GPU memory, miner can crash during reallocating GPU buffer for new DAG. To avoid it, miner reserves a bit larger GPU buffer at startup, so it can process several epochs without buffer reallocation. This setting defines how many epochs miner must foresee when it reserves GPU buffer, i.e. how many epochs will be processed without buffer reallocation. Default value is 2.

my miner was running fine till the about month ago, i read a post here to add this code to your miner -eres 0 after worker email of the eth miner not the pascal miner,i only added the bold -eres 0 to my miner it fixed it and i have a brand new 4gb card, so make your conclusion. this issue started after bad thunder storm power went out and out of my 6 miners that one went bad, i was going to just give it way and buy a new,but before you do that please add -eres 0 or -eres 1 by defualt the miner runs a -eres 2 wich is to high takes from your gb,so you dont work, some of you running only pascal with issue well do samee as above. hope this helps. and yes that is my real ethereum/pascal deposit address for my miner.

happy mining

I'm trying to mine akroma off claymore and everytime I add my 4th gpu (running all nvidia 1070ti) it gives me the cuda error 11 and restarts the program. When I have 3 or less gpus it works just fine. PLEASE HELP! I am on windows 10

[hosseinraaad]

I had the same problem that fixed by c++ redist. Try it http://bit.ly/2KmpUcF

Hi everyone,

I was tracking down this issue for a long time. I finally resolved it 5 minutes ago.

8 gpu rig (1070's) Windows 10 2 850w PSU's 8gb ram

1. Reset windows https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/reset-windows-10-pc
2. Set paging file to min16000- max30000
3. Install latest NVidia drivers 988.2 as of August 2018.
4. Install Claymore 11.9
5. Enable (Allow access) through windows defender if the firewall message pops up the first time you run the miner (see below for what happened to me and caused something to be blocked by the firewall)
6. Here are my claymore settings: EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool ssl://us2.ethermine.org:5555 -ewal [minder address] -mode 1 -lidag 1

Here's how I came to the steps above:

The miner settings didn't seem to matter, but I did -eres 0 and -lidag 1 to no avail.

I upgraded system memory from 4gb to 8gb. I think this helped allowing me to use less virtual memory.

I added 850psu (upgraded from a 550w), so now my system has 2 850psu's

I tried old and new Nvidia drivers. Currently i'm using the latest NVidia drivers

I was on claymore 10.0 and it suddenly stopped working. I upgraded to 11.9 and also tried 11.6, to no avail.

Here's the key part: In order to upgrade the miner, I had to disable the firewall. Something with that screwed things up. So here is what I did to fix the issue: I did the Reset Windows option https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/reset-windows-10-pc

Once that was done, my paging file options went from 22000max to 30000max. So, I updated it to 16000 / 30000 paging file. Then, I started miner and still got the error. But the firewall popped up and said something was blocked!! So, I clicked "allow access" on that window. Restarted miner and boom, all working great now!

HOPE THIS HELPS!!! ETH: 0xd029a5Fa47d499e56Df257a2e73617E2Ae84290B

[aaronllowe]

Try the command after the pools: -allpools 1

[aaronllowe]

I mean the pool config

[Blisk]

I tried all but it doesn't help, still have this error! Waiting for a solution!

I would focus on this:

[Blisk]

It is fresh installed win 10

[ferraroroberto]

I got the same problem today with a Nvidia GTX 1070 8Gb, solved adding the option -eres 0

[tdohertyau]

I got the same problem today with a Nvidia GTX 1060 6Gb, solved adding the option "-eres 0"

The EPOC changed from 382 to 383 which increased the DAG size from 3.98Gb to 3.99Gb

At the same time the hashrate on Nanopool dropped by 10%

[AliceMargatriod]

got the same problem today with gtx 1080 8Gb, solved adding the -eres 0

[arn3d]

Guys I add -eres 0 in config.txt and also add it in the end of line in start.bat file. It worked great, thanks for the help.

[stefi01]

-eres 0 worked for me with 1070's thanks :)

[ShadowOfTheDamn]

Hi everybody adding the -eres 0 first cleared the error for me but now I get: CUDA error 77 - cannot write buffer for DAG I have 4x1060 6Gb any help is appreciated.

[stefi01]

i had same issue last night so i removed the -eres 0 and then it worked again

[ferraroroberto]

yes, me too, removed the -eres 0 and worked again.

now I am back with my original configuration and it's working again as usual. strange thing is that I don't get the error that made me put the -eres 0 option in the first place..

[Blisk]

I start to use other miners withouth a dag problem and I use 4Gb vram
