Add ability to tweak CPU and GPU usage

If the GPU driver crashes - unfortunately it's exactly that - a bug in the GPU driver. That said, sometimes GPUs will crash if they have insufficient cooling, but both AMD and nVidia drivers do let you see the driver status in their control panels.

If i use GPU and Fast mining i get error "driver is not responding, restarting driver" and after several times it blocks the mining program to access the GPU. What's wrong ? If i only use CPU then it works (but not as fast as i want to)

Add the ability to use BOTH GPU and CPU at the same time in order to increase computational power per device.

I have been mining several days and am unable to find the results of my efforts. Can you tell me what I have missed? Sorry, I am relatively new to this and do not want to waste any more time for no payouts.

Hi Michal, all of our Windows Store miners use DirectCompute (DirectX) when GPU mining.
Unfortunately Microsoft has not certified any OpenCL or CUDA libraries for use in the Windows Store. This means if an app were to use OpenCL or CUDA, it would not pass certification for release on the Windows Store.

Does it use OpenCL or CUDA computing on nVidia GPUs?

Cool

Add ability to toggle between GPU and make use of multiple GPU (OPENCL or CUDA).

Waffle pool has a app called Waffle monitor in Google play to monitor stats on your android phone. It gives you basic info when you add in your bitcoin address on the free app!

Perhaps an easy way to handle CPU Throttling is instead to give the ability to lower the mining process priority, so that the work we are trying to do on the computer gets priority.

Bump for the ability to turn the CPU usage down (when using the machine) up (when not).

Hopefully some time in the next 3 months - right now most of the work is going into a Litecoin version as well as ASIC support.

when do you plan to have cpu and gpu throttling available?

Right now Bitcoin Miner doesn't show stats or controls on a per-device basis, but I'm looking into adding this sometime in the next couple versions (both controls and info).

Hot do i know if it is using gpu or cpu?
