Ethereum update: Claymore and Phoenix both will not start. Details in thread.
EDIT – SOLVED! The solution was to go into the device manager, click view and show hidden devices, and uninstall the integrated GPU. Claymore and Phoenix both booted right up. Thanks u/asdf4455 !
I believe this has something to do with an update Windows has, because I have the exact same mb/cpu/ram/hd setup on another rig and this was not an issue. So if you’re fresh installing a new rig, this is the likely culprit!
——————————————————————————————————-
So I’ve built a few rigs, never come across this problem. A board I had was having trouble so I bought a new one and now have 6 cards on a fresh Windows install for this rig. Everything looks good. But for some reason, Phoenix and Claymore will not start.
No errors. Here is what Claymore is doing with wallet/rig info changed:
C:Usersrig4DesktopClaymore>EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool us1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal wallet.rig -epsw x
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ Claymore’s Dual ETH + DCR/SC/LBC/PASC GPU Miner v10.2 ║
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
ETH: 1 pool is specified
Main Ethereum pool is us1.ethermine.org:4444
DCR: 0 pool is specified
C:Usersrig4DesktopClaymore>PAUSE
Press any key to continue . . .
Phoenixminer with standard wallet:
C:Usersrig4DesktopPhoenixMiner_2.9e>PhoenixMiner.exe -pool ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555 -pool2 ssl://us1.ethermine.org:5555 -wal 0x008c26f3a2Ca8bdC11e5891e0278c9436B6F5d1E.Rig001
Phoenix Miner 2.9e Windows/msvc – Release
—————————————–
No CUDA driver found
C:Usersrig4DesktopPhoenixMiner_2.9e>pause
Press any key to continue . . .
Anyone have any ideas? I’m pretty lost on this one.
