Last updated December 04, 2020
Since i received lots of question about my windows configuration , version or drivers, i decided to make post about it.
Although there is not that much to talk about, but i think those settings are very important and a must for each mining rig, if you do other things that are not found here, post them in comments and ill update!
This windows configuration can be applied on any type of altcoin mining like Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, ZCash, Zclassic, Monero, PascalCoin, Expanse, Ubiq, Decred etc.. Make sure you have an account on Binance, if not, signup here!
Here is how i tweak my windows for a mining rig!
Windows Installation & Configuration for Mining Rig
Important:
- Do not plug the Ethernet cable to your mining rig while windows installation or after that
- Plug only ONE GPU in the PCI Express 16x slot with usb riser
- I have always used 120GB SSD drives (you can use bigger, there is no restriction)
- Always used just one partition C: (if you have a bigger SSD like 240 then you can create additional partition and use it to “mine” Storj)
Windows version for Mining Rig
Motherboard and Bios
Depending on what motherboard you will be using, some of them needs some BIOS modifications to make it work properly with USB Risers or anything else. For this, i will take as example “Biostar TB85” and “Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon“
For Biostar TB85 i had to do the following BIOS modifications :
- Set CPU fan control to auto, it was 100% all the time
- Set PCIe Speed from Auto to Gen1
- Last thing was to modify “Restore on AC/Power Loss“, set it to “Power On” or “Last State” (if power goes off and after a while is back on, the rig will start automatically)
For Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon :
Windows 10 Registry Tweaks For Mining
- While windows is installed disable the following services: click to enlarge image
- Once windows is full installed and booted for the first time i always run the Windows 10 Registry tweaks for mining.bat file https://mega.nz/#!8gZzjQaa!Dt4wE0WEo8nZkui_-cAAXL4mb4YlO6CJgFZTXKq9pnQ (i am not disabling everything, just things that i think wont be needed, windows update, cortana, crash reports etc..)
- Back Up Your Registry or create a restore point
- Run in administrator mode
- Once everything is applied, restart the rig
Stop Windows Update #DoubleCheck
- In RUN type “services.msc“, the services page will be open
- Search for “Windows Update“
- Click “Stop” if status is “Live” or “Checking/Running“
- Select “Disabled” on “Startup type“
- Apply & Restart
- Do it again and make sure that it is disabled
- Also if you want you can disable more services..
Lately microsoft somehow forced windows updates and that made the rigs to not work properly, to make sure this wont happen again i had to find a better solution to stop the updates completely
- go to RUN and type gpedit.msc, click on "Administrative Templates" then "Windows Components" and last "Windows Updates" disable the services like in this image
- in start write "Task Scheduler" then go to "Task Scheduler Library" -> "Microsoft" -> "Windows" and "UpdateOrchestror" right click on service and click disable like in this image
- same on "Task Scheduler" scroll down a bit and click on "WindowsUpdate" disable the services like in this image
Prevent your mining rig being hacked
- go to “START” and type “Control Panel” then access “Programs and Features“, on top left side click “Turn Windows features on or off” and uncheck “SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support“
Increase Virtual Memory
- In search type “This PC“, right click on it and choose “Properties“
- Then click on “Advanced System Settings“
- On “Advanced” tab where it says “Performance” click on “Settings“
- Click “Advanced” tab
- At the bottom you will see “Virtual memory“, click on “Change“
- 1. Uncheck “Automatically manage paging file size for all drives“
- 2. Check “Custom size“
- 3. In the “Initial size (MB)” type: 3000 (or directly 16000)
- 4. In the “Maximum size (MB)” type: 16000 (or more like 20k)
- 5. Click “Set” , then “OK” and “Apply“
- Restart the rig
Power Plan and Options
- In search type “Power Options“
- Click on “Show additional plans“
- Select “High Performance” plan
- Then still on “High Performance” plan, click “Change plan settings“
- Select “Never” on all four selections for “Turn off the display” and “Put the computer to sleep“
- Click “Change advanced power settings” and look for “PCI Express” -> “Link State Power Management“, make sure it is set to “OFF“, usually it is but better to check on that
- Restart the rig
AMD Driver Version and Install/Uninstall
I usually test the rig with this two driver versions!
VERY IMPORTANT: When you want to try a different driver version, use Display Driver Uninstaller in safe mode to uninstall the current driver, it will erase every track of previous video driver, download here: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html
UPDATED January 14, 2018
Use the official mining driver: https://1stminingrig.com/ethereum-dag-hashrate-drop-fix-amd-official-mining-drivers-are-now-out/
Nvidia Drivers
You can use latest drivers 🙂
Sofware and apps that i use on most of my rigs
Basically this is it.. ill update this post once i have new configurations! 🙂
Happy mining!
You are simply the best. Better than all the rest.
Hehe, thanks! watch out for the next article about mining rig!
I need to say again how great you are, saved me hours of work. Respect
Thank you! Happy it was helpful 🙂
tnx for the guide, can I use newer drivers or are these the best one? i have a rx570
As i know for that you will have to use the latest ones..
“Plug only ONE GPU in the PCI Express 16x slot with usb riser”…
Can I use HP DL380 G5 with :
– 2x PCI Express x8
– 2x PCI Express x18
and 4x USB Riser (v006 or v007) ?
The 4 GPU will be external to the rack and connetted/powered by external Power Supply.
Tnx
Hi,
I’ve a question… is it better:
– two PC with 3 GPU
– one PC with 6 GPU
Regards:-)
Hi @disqus_simsim:disqus , i personally prefer 6x rig, is the same having 3x rig 🙂
Tnx @ciprianpt:disqus !
I’m testing with two HP server (with only 3/4 PCI-E free) and USB Riser to external GPU.
Why you wrote: “Plug only ONE GPU in the PCI Express 16x slot with usb riser”?
Thanks again!
Hello,
how big is the influence on mining when you’re using a 6GPU Miner with Windows as an everyday PC? Is it possible to surf, watch movies and game during the mining process? How slow would the mining be during that time?
Hi, well the mining hashrate will fluctuate and maybe there will also be some system hangs or gpus, not sure 100%, anyway i don’t recommend that, try to make a dedicated machine for gaming and one for mining, at least create the mining rig with 5 GPUs instead of 6 and use the 6th card for your gaming pc..
Okay, thank you very much for your reply 🙂
Will the mining rig also work on Windows 8.1? or is it best to mine on Windows 10?
Yes, windows 8.1 is fine too..
please ciprian i need your help, am having issues with my rig..asrock h81 probtc r2.0,rx 580 dataland 8gb,4gb ram,psu 1200w with window 10 installed..i have follow all the process above but still unable to power all the gpu…The problem its that when the rig start,its will run ten to fifteen secs then stop when window display.in device manager i can see all the cards and if i unstalled amd driver with ddu then all the cards will run but will not be display on the device manager..i have combine both 16.4 and 17.5 software still no way and i have try installing only 16 still the issues still arise…please i need assistance.its anything i need to do more because i have been battling this issue for a week now..you can give me your skype
have you fixed your miner?
I am setting up my rig with 6 Rx480s, and the board sees all of them; however, the driver oftware is only installing on 3 of them and the rest have “error 12, insufficient resources.” What does this mean and what do I do?
What driver version are you using?
16.9.2
Could it be that I don’t have UEFI Windows?
It seems also that the driver is not installing on the 3 GPUs which say code 12
any solution for this ? sounds similar to my problem ..
On ethos can I change the miner pool? Or do I have to use the one they pre installed?
Of course you can change it. You just can’t change the address that comes pre installed 😉
After doing these tweaks i cant run anything from windows+r … why?
I cant put anything in startup folder now.
Have you applied y with everything ? try control panel “startup”
Norton anti virus is one of the options when loading the bios for for the Z170a. You can tell Mr Norton to let you run Claymore and he will let you do it. But he stops you after you get 1 share. Must think you are a bot or something.
tl;dr don’t load Norton Anti Virus
When do I plug in the Ethernet port during the configuration? I assume I will have to pre download the wind tweak bat file on USB to configure.
i plug in when I finish to install and drivers.
Any anytime do you update windows?
no updates!
Is there a way you monitor the status of the mining rig? Remotey, cause I don’t see a need to keep it plugged in to a monitor
You can try teamviewer..
I’d be afraid to leave that on all the time. Security risk…
you can use an HDMI dummy plug / headless ghost for local. it’ll beam you over to your laptop etc.
Hey Ciprian, So i’ve followed this setup to the T once and have one rig running wonderfully. I have now setup a second which runs on one GPU but as soon as i plug in another, on starting the mining, it crashes. All cards run by themselves, but if ANY 2 cards are run together it crashes. Initially i saw that a windows update had been done but i put a fresh install of the OS on and still have the same problem. Any ideas? I dont think it is a hardware issue. Im using driver 16.9.1 which i know works on my other rig, windows 10.
So if you add the cards one by one it those will work ?
Tried that. They still dont work. One card runs fine. Add another (Any other card) and its detects all the cards fine but then as soon as the mining starts the PC crashes.
Thank you for the tutorial.
I have one question: is using Windows for the mining rig better than ethOS (http://ethosdistro.com/) which you also introduced?
Right now i prefer windows than linux.
How to connect 10 rig in 1?
Not sure if understand your question, what exactly you want to do ?
For anyone having problems with File Explorer and Unspecified Error related to disabling Quick Access:
https://superuser.com/questions/720519/error-shell52205fd8-5dfb-447d-801a-d0b52f2e83e1-this-file-has-no-program/1008604#1008604
This post fixed it for me. Basically:
The quick solution was to change the default view of File Explorer from Quick Access to This PC. Go to Control Panel, File Explorer Options and change the “Open File Explorer to” option to “This PC”. Then you’ll be able to open File Explorer.
You’re welcome!
These modifications are similar for H81 Pro BTC R2.0? This MoBo supports W10?
For H81 not need to modify anything.. it is plug and play.. as for the windows 10 yes, similar settings.
Whats the config if iam using nvidia cards? And should i install latest drivers of mobo?
will post that soon
Thanks will wait your instruction for nvidia gpu cards.
Hey dude is it possible to mine ETH on windows 10 with 6 GTX 1060 on a single mobo? I basically need to know does windows support 10 GPUs
what about MOBO , chipset and other drivers ?
depends on those, for example when i used h81, h97 annyversary, tb250, tb85 etc.. i never installed their drivers or anything like that… only bios update for tb250..
I would like one tuto for configure one plug hdmi for teamviewer please.
Thank.
I used your windows tweaks for my rig, easy to do and worked awesome – thanks so much!
Great tutorial thanks Ciprian !
I have one question though : is it recommended or not to install an antivirus for a mining rig ?
Nope.. i never install one, i also disable the defender 🙂
if you are doing any web browser I recommend using windows 10 defender just to ward off any keyloggers or malware that could steal your crypto keys
Hello, I am building my rig with 5 nvidia 1060 gtx, each time windows skip 1 card or 1 card starts giving 2 mh/s speed while others are working fine with 16 mh/s.
I’m having similar problem… but in my case on the same graphic cards they work 2 MH/s speed only.. Any advice? Thanks
Had the same problem with the same exact cards running claymore. I saw somewhere that i needed to upgrade to the windows 10 creative update version and 30 minutes later i was mining at 22 per card
What did you exactly do to get such an awesome rate. my second card is stuck at 2 and the first at 9.
Please help me!
Hi Logger, i had this problem frequently last time and end up i just did a changes in power plug, i found out the root because of unstable in power consumption.
tried uninstalling drivers with ddu and install again latest ?
I’ve done that but didnt help 🙁
Hi Cirpian
First great post. I’ll do all this things on my Rig.
I have 32gb of memory – do you think its necessary set the virtual memory to 16gb??
Tks
Yep 🙂
I’m mining using 3 x Asus RX 550 4GB with nicehash miner. The driver keep crashes. I tried the 2 driver above and also the default.. Any suggestion?
I found out that its USB riser problem.
Thankyou for such an amazing guide, as im a new miner bought 2x win 10 pro and after some days of installing overclokcing and stuff both the rigs keep on crashing back to back and im tired of it i got h81 pro btc r2.0, do i need to change the gen auto to gen1? i have 12x 1060 6gb. too many error as i reinstalled os it worked fine for 2 days then again started giving me the issue of Blue screen of death and it changed differetly too tired of it.
Is there a limitation with the number of graphic cards in windows 10 ? i have 5x rx480 in my rig .. under linux everything is fine but under windows one card is disabled ..
You can run up to 8 GPUs of the same brand
Thanks much. So helpful!
Hi, I’m currently running 6 Nvidia Gigabyte GPUs on 1 motherboard and one 1300 psu with Windows 10 and latest nvidia driver. I would like to run 10 Nvidia GPUs maybe with the same brand by adding the 1x to 4x riser for extra 4 GPUs with extra PSU. Does this setup can be run with Windows 10 and latest Nvidia driver?
Windows can support up to 8 gpus max of the same brand..
Dumb question is it necessary to use win 10 pro?
Nope, you can use any version
When I install more than 6 video cards on my TB250-BTC PRO I can no longer log into Windows 10. The ethernet jack appears to be sending/receiving but the machine does not appear on the network, as if Windows 10 is stuck trying to initialize the network. If I unplug the ethernet cable and reboot, then Windows 10 starts perfectly and I can log in just fine and I can see all 6 video cards. If I leave the ethernet cable unplugged I can install all 9 video cards and boot into Windows 10 just fine and I can see all 9 video cards. However, if I plug the ethernet cable back in I cannot log into windows. If I plug the cable after logging into windows, then windows freezes up within seconds. If I start the machine with just one to 6 video cards, then everything works fine. What’s wrong?
Have you updated the bios for this mobo ?
I sell Windows 10 Pro/Home keys for 20 USD via Paypal, contact me with “Windows 10” in the title. [email protected]
What miner should i use? At the moment am i using Nicehash miner v2, but should i need a specific one?
what coin do you want to mine ?
Bitcoin’s/BTC
if you have nvidia gpus then use v2 , if amd go with legacy version
Okay, thank you.

You should see +27 Mh rates.
you got a skype?
By mistake, I install Windows 10 with all 6 cards plugged in. Now I have total speed of 16.000 instead of 106.000. Looks like Windows reconised all 6 csrds as one. Should I install Windows again or we can tweak it somehow?
Thank you.
Also what driver would you suggest for NVidea GForce 1060? Latest?
Thank you.
Hi, connect only one gpu, run ddu to uninstall the drivers and install them again. Use latest drivers.
Thank you. That scenario does not work. I install the new Windows home, with one card connected. That does not help as well. After download all Windows updates, one card start running at 16000, then I disable everything with .bat file, disconnect from internet and connect the cards one by one. Now speed is good enough even without overclocking.
Thank you.
16000? What do you mine ?
Etherium. Total speed 106. Each card showing 16.000, or 18.000. Initially was 2.2.
Can i know the model/manufacturer of your cards?
Heck I have a little RX470 dual mining, doing 20.8 Mh/s eth along with 620 Mh/s sia. Unfortunately the reg tweaks above fail on removing windows default applications. Something about microsoft.3DBuilder.
Nvidea GFORCE 1060, no overclocking, just regular driver.
Ecahc card speed showing 16.000 or 19.000 now.. Total speed 106.0
I want ask about my rig always freeze after run mining about 1 or less. After i reboot it, it say amd wattman restore. I reinstal os just have that problem too. I use amd beta driver blockchain and use stock bios rx 570 gaming x 4g? Any issue or help for me please.
I guess you are overclocking them too much.. when running on default bios those cards cannot handle higher oc.
So I am ISO help and willing to tip in crypto for the help/time if it can solve my problem….building my very first rig using windows OS, H81 Pro BTC, and msi GTX 1070 with Victony risers that have 3.0 USB. FINALLY got one of my GPUs to register (in a PCIe 2.0 x 1 slot#3 using a powered riser) as a Display Adapter in windows but had to directly connect HDMI cable from my TV with HDMI cable to GPU. (This finally allowed me to download the driver from nvidia). Now I’m struggling to connect my other GPUs (they don’t register in the the other slots) and it is forcing me to use the HDMI cable to tv in order to even boot up using specifically this one PCIe slot. Not sure what steps to take now…
(currently going to buy a dvi-d to vga adaptor so I can try and use a monitor instead of my TV)
Hey. message me if your miner is still down.
Thanks for the message. Got it working. Turned out to be bad powered risers…smh
can you help me give seting for mobo gigabyte h100-d3a seting bios for mining??
because i have trouble vidoe tdr filed
Hei,
I have built 6 gpu mining rig with configuration mentioned below.the problem is windows keep crashing with each reboot. If anyone have similar problem, can you help me with this problem?

Try mining on Linux/ ethOS…
does it crash on gpu stock bios?
No it does not crashes with stock BIOS on silent side .
Is your miner still down?
Hei
Ivan,
Do you have solution to this. This is crazy, very unstable rig. 🙁
Hi, im having the next trouble, hope someone can help me:
I have 4 GPU rx 580, windows recognizes all but fans dont work i dont know why, i tried to use MSI Afterburn but didt give me any information, it just only recognize thee GPU.
If i disconnect one, the other 3 fans only work with MSI Afterburn on the background. 🙁
What miner are you using ?
Good article bro … thanks …
thank you very much you are awesome ^^
Hi everyone! I want to buy 4xRX580 and I want to know if the MB make a difference (i want to buy TB85 Biostar because I already have DDR3 and a celeron CPU)
Why Replace Utilman with CMD ?
quick question. is there any way to undo all these. as soon as i ran these Tweaks my computer doesn’t recognize more than 1 gpu anymore
have you backuped your reg first?
sadly not, do i have to uninstall windows? or is there a tweak remover? actually what happens is that the blockcahin driver for rx570 is not recognized any more when i install these tweaks. not sure why. there is no problem with the normal AMD driver, but then the hash rate sucks
your blog is helpful, Thanks
miner.bat file download link is not working…
can you please update
Thanks again
This is so awesome. Thank you.
hi . i have a mining rig with 6 GPUs and 3 PSU . when i start eth miner suddenly the 2 PSUs that aent connected to the mother board stop and system crash . can anyone help me ?
Why 3 PSU ?
Pentru configuratii 8 GPU+ pe WIN 10 fa un tutorial cu AMD 17.11.4 drivers. Eu am 13 AMD identice instalate pe win si merg super. O idee 🙂 Altfel, multumesc, cu tine am pornit in mining si am invatat o gramada de atunci! 🙂 Keep up the good work, succes!
Salut @dragosdanescu:disqus , urmeaza o serie te postari in forta, am fost foarte ocupat in ultima vreme si nu am avut asa mult timp. Am tot felul de configuratii facute care asteapta sa fie publicate 🙂 Multumesc!

The best graphics card to use is Nvidia GTX 1080Ti. You can get the best deal here. https://btcincome.xyz?raf=ref8554914 Very affordable.. Crpto coins are making these cards really hard and expensive to get. Guys pls use my link to purchase.

Hello, I have 3 rigs with 10 gpus, is there a method to join them all as one?
Would it be put in cluster mode?
they are in windows 10
thanks for the support
Yes with BTC+ motherboard you can have up to 13 gpus. Although I’ve only used it for as much as 9 gpus so far.
Ok so I built my rig in Nov 2017. Had it set running great up until 2 days ago. I went for the FCU and then all shit broke loose. Can’t get Windows 10 to run all 6 Nvidia cards anymore. Keep getting not enough resources to run more that 3 cards. Currently 2- 1060 gpu and 4 -1050 ti gpus. It was running great until I fucked with it. I’m on my second reinstall attempt and could not get any video drivers installed without doing a full update.
WIn 10 pro
Asrock h81 r2.0
8gb ram
like I said, It was running for 2 months. any help would be appreciated. I didnt update bios as it was running like a peach
Did the windows updated for no reason ?
I wanted some security updates since my copy is from 2015. So there was no way other than FCU to install, then it kept locking up after restarts. So the update would not finish and when i let it finish on Monday, it stopped recognizing all 6 gpus. I had updates disabled. Ive read where my board Asrock H81 pro R2.0 has issues with this new update. So now i get an error trying to install the nvidia drivers as it says not for my version of Windows. I did it before.
I have been reinstalling the 1704 version. Ive tried different versions of nvidia drivers. Unistalling, reinstalling. I need a way for those drivers to install in 1704
Hopefully i have fixed my problem. First formatted and installed win10 ver 1704 with no internet. was able to plug all gpus in and then I installed pre Nvidia drivers 881. Found this little gem of info on how to stop the recent Fall creators update. So I’m going thru somew updates and halted the upgrade for 8 months until MS can figure out a solution

Hi there, with all those tweaks needed isn’t it just easier to use Ubuntu instead?
Those tweaks time frame is about 5 min 🙂 looks complicated?
nice share! only thing I change is on “high performance” power settings, enable font smoothing so web browsing and dashboards don’t look like total shit. I also remove the new Windows photo app and replace it with Windows 7 classic “photo viewer” much more light weight and easier to use.
I also use CCclenaer and/or PowerShell to remove all those windows 10 “apps” like Xbox etc. Remove IE and extra windows components in the uninstall window. Its also good to Remove One Drive that bugger gets in the way a lot. in the end, do a regristry cleanup.
is it can supply 12pcs Sapphire Pulse RX570 8gb GPU on win10 64 bit by AMD Radeon Crimson-ReLive-Beta-Blockchain-Workloads-Aug23 version driver?
The blockchain driver doesn’t support that, you will have to use the latest drivers and enable compute.
ok thx
this bat file corrupted explorer on a fresh install FYI
Hi! Could you tell me – will your BAT file work with Windows 10 LTSB edition? Thanks
Never tested it :/
