I'm hoping I was just stupid and have something incorrect in the bat file. Sorry if it's a long thread, but I tried to include as many details as possible (and what I've tried) to make it easier on suggestions and see if anyone has any potential fixes. Disabling or exiting out of my virus/malware protection does not change the crash from happening.Ĭgminer -scrypt -o -u -p -g 1Ĭgminer -scrypt -o -u -p -g 1 -thread-concurrency 6144 -lookup-gap 0 -gpu-engine 750 -gpu-memclock 900 -w 128 -I 15 -g 1 I have also tried using the -t command (From the GPU-readme.txt) and it doesn't cause a crash, but the CMD screen goes away immediately upon the last command and doesn't seem to start CGminer. bin files unless I go into the bitstreams subdirectory (some internet searches seemed to show deleting.
