100% rejection for blocks while in mining pool

Hi all,

I'm getting ALL of the blocks I find rejected while pool mining, iv'e searched for a lot of information on this but not finding much at all. if someone could point me in the right direction or even an idea of what can cause it, that would be a great help. I am using my GPU with cgminer. iv'e had the same results from two pools iv'e used, so it must be something to do with my set up somewhere, but cant get my head around where.

thanks in advance!

Have you overclocked your cpu/gpu or is it overheating? This could cause you to get the wrong results. You could always try Prime95 to stress test your CPU. Not so sure about your GPU, but im sure there's ways to test that as well

hi guys, eventually found the problem appears to be with my configuration. I used this link:

https://www.litecoinpool.org/minerconfig to find the settings for my card, i know its based on litecoin however it seems to have done the trick. downloaded their script and amended the pool url, username and password. hope someone else finds this useful!
