A: Yes but their hashrate is very poor and likely you'll be using much more

energy than you'll be earning in coins.

+Q: Can I mine on both Nvidia and AMD GPUs at the same time?
|

|
+A: No, you must run one instance of cgminer with the --gpu-platform option for

+Q: Cgminer stops mining (or my GPUs go DEAD) and I can't close it?
|
|
|
+A: Once the driver has crashed, there is no way for cgminer to close cleanly.
|
|
|
+You will have to kill it, and depending on how corrupted your driver state
|
|
|
+has gotten, you may even need to reboot. Windows is known to reset drivers
|
|

+Q: I can't get any monitoring of temperatures or fanspeed with cgminer when
