Common Mining Issues & How to Fix Them

Fix crashes, rejected shares, high temperatures, and other common mining problems.

Miner crashes at startup

Check Windows Defender exclusions, run as admin, update GPU drivers.

High rejected share rate

Try a different pool server (EU vs US), check your internet stability.

GPU overheating

Set a power limit (80% is a good start), improve case airflow, clean dust.

Low hashrate

Make sure you're using the right algorithm. Check if power limit is too aggressive.

Miner shows "GPU 0 " (blank) error

Use CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=X to isolate problematic cards. Update drivers.
