Ok here goes.

I have a old p67/i7 3770/8gb/120gb ssd with 5 x 10603gb and a Z270 msi krait/G4400/8gb ddr4/120gb ssd with 4 x 1060 3gb/6gb setups running windows 10 pro with nicehash. Had no issues with it for the past 4ish months but after Friday night Windows update, the machines is fucked. It just picks up 3 cards and shows the other 2 as not functioning. Then you have to dissable and re-enable but then nicehash/winminer/minergate all crash within a minute or 2.

Today i decided to do a fresh windows install on the 1st machine. Plugged out all the pci-ex risers and installed with onboard. As soon as i plug in the risers, the machine goes nuts. Any idea why? Must i try an Linux OS for mining? Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Verkoop alles and stuur geld vir my jy weet hoekom haha
 
Had a similar issue.
Try updating NVidia and Nicehash to latest versions.(I am using legacy if that makes much of a difference)
worked for me
 
try removing display drivers via DDU, remove all the risers/GPUS, restart, reconnect them and install the display drivers again.
NH legacy is best if you are not using that yet.
 
Did you re-install the version of windows you had prior to the update? or did you fresh install with the latest version?

I installed win 10 (ver 1703) on my rig with 6 gtx cards connected and had no issues. I'm using a different setup tho. I would try installing the original win 10 you had with the gpu's connected.
 
I agree with DDU and new driver install, Ive had this problem before and I did not even remove my cards when I redid the drivers
 
new installation of windows and still fucked. Nicehash (legacy) shows my 5 x 1060s on the 1 pc but jst wont mine with it. The benchmarks wont run through.

The PC is done for. Send it to me for disposal. Include the GPU's too as they are farked as well. I'll PM you my address :p

Are you getting any errors on the machine that doesn't want to mine? Have you tried mining to MultiPoolHub as an example to rule out a NH issue? Also, what version nVidia drivers are you running?
