OpenCL & Win XP?

[Kagemusha]

Anyone know if this is possible. Trying to utilise an old PC with a couple of 4870s. I know AMD removed openCL support for XP from 12.1 onwards, just wondering if I can somehow get it to work or someone has the old drivers with openCL?

Cheers

10.8 drivers (Stream SDK 2.2) seem to run faster on HD4xxx than 11.12 drivers (Stream SDK 2.5 or 2.6).

in that case:

10.8 driver:
http://www2.ati.com/drivers/10-8_xp32_dd_ccc_enu.exe

SDK:

BTW, no need to install the whole SDK, just OpenCL part.

I managed to enable OpenCL using the 11.10 drivers. No matter what miner I use I can’t get it to successfully accept shares. More investigation required!

post your configuration settings and maybe we can help sort it :P
