Good afternoon community, I hope you are well. I am having a problem with my mining rig…
Everything was working fine since 7 months ago (when I built my rig*) until last Thursday (July 21).
The first error was “NVIDIA OC failed” then “Autofan: unable to set fan speed” and then constant restarts, repeating the same errors… I tried the following tests:
Remove autofan
Change overclockings
Change miner; from nbminer to trex
Downgrade/upgrade hive os
Update nvidia drivers (had version 510.60.02, updated to 510.73.05)
Nvidia settings reinstall
All these tests and none of them worked, so I decided to go testing GPUs one by one… the result surprised me: all the boards worked correctly, until I connected the PNY brand! The rig worked perfectly with all the boards (4) except the PNY… then I did the following tests:
Change risers
Change cables
Change PCI port
Clean the board
No solution… I try and connect only the PNY (without any other GPU) and I can’t get it to work either… errors like “X server is not running! Some settings will not be applied!”
I really need help, I’ve been all these days looking for solutions and I can’t figure out the problem, I really appreciate it…
I leave some screenshots… greetings!
Did you try leaving the power limit but removing the OC? If you already did this you will have to replace thermal pads and see what happens. If this doesn’t work either, I would install it on a Windows PC and mine there to see what pops up.
Go under remote access and use shellinabox or hive shell, or from the device itself with a keyboard type miner in the shell and watch the output.
If youre getting an error about swerved do you have the gui disabled in settings? Maintenance mode enabled? I would start with a fresh install with all default rig settings and go from there.
Server is what controls the nvidia ocs. If a card crashes the driver and crashes xserver it can’t control the ocs on that card. Double check your worker options that you don’t have xserver disabled
