RE: [UPDATED 7/6] How-To Mine Steem Power in Windows

in #steem • 8 years ago

I also get this same case with the same errors (both in steemd and in the cli_wallet) on an AMD Opteron based Windows 10 machine (Windows just tell me it has stopped working rather than talking about permissions etc.). Another machine I have that is an i7 is able to run the exact same installation and config without any errors. Is your machine AMD? Maybe its something about the hardware that steemd doesn't like?

    Yes, This is happens an AMD box. I tried it on a different AMD machine and it got 3 blocks downloaded before crashing.
    It seems like a required component is missing, since I can't run either exe without a crash.

      Try ...

      • overwriting blockchain with pfunk's again
      • turning mining off (comment out mining-threads in config.ini)
      • start steemd and let it sync until you see the same block # (or as near as possible) as on steemd.com under head_block_number
      • then CTRL-C to exit and turn mining back on in config.ini
      • restart steemd.exe

          Come into the slack channel and perhaps arhag or someone else can help. I've posted all I know to do on this page so I'm out of options and I got them all from arhag, bhuz or pfunk. ;)

                I'm able to run on AMD A10 so far, but still having issues getting it going on my old i7/860.
