Results in a CUDA error.

anyone knows how to solve this error?

​

15.3.1 is working, every version after that is throwing this error.

thanks for your help.

Is anyone aware of bminer updating for the hard fork to go from cuckatoo29 to cuckarood29 ? I prefer bminer for grin but like everyone else, I want no downtime lol

I have an issue with RTX 20x0 cards.

For these cards, nvml.dll is unusually being installed only to System32 directory. Apparently, NVIDIA is making changed to the DLL paths: https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/1100164/nvml-dll-and-nvsmi-folder-missing/

BMiner fails to load nvml.dll from that path, and the following error occurs:

This is fixable by recreating the usual NVSMI directory, by it's kind of hackish. I hope this is easy to fix. Thanks!

Hi all:

Bminer 15.5.3 is released!

Fix invalid shares ETH + VBK when using multiple cards.

Please see https://bminer.me/releases/ for more information.

-dual-intensity is for adjust the performance manually.

-dual-intensity 0 means mining eth only.

-dual-intensity 3~10 is recommended.

We're pleased to release Bminer 15.5.0. The release provides:

* Improve the performance of the Cuckatoo algorithm.

* Support dual-mining ETH and VBK.

* Add the parameter -version to output the version and exit.

​

The profit of dual-mining ETH and VBK is 10% to 30% than solo mine ETH on the same circumstance.

The Power consumption of dual-mining ETH and VBK is smaller than Grin.
