Hey guys, I've been having some issues, especially recently.
I keep getting "miner thread hangs". I've used the settings in the readme, I'm using 16.12.2 with the 11.1 release, and I'm not mixing cards (for the most part) but even when I'm not, the problem persists. "Miner thread hangs, need to restart miner" except it needs to be restarted manually, watchdog doesn't seem to work here.
I thought part of the problem may have been something like not using dummy plugs, but even setting the screen to never turn off and just letting it sit, the problem seems to persist. I've tried very low intensities, down to -i 2 on several rigs, with again, the same problem.
For any of you who've had this problem, how did you fix it, if at all? It just sucks to realize while I went to sleep for 8 hours, my rigs conveniently stopped mining... Any ideas?

Try using 15.12 or 16.3.2 Drivers, that's what Claymore recommends.
Well the problem is my biggest rig are RX 480's and still has those problems, but he seems to recommend 16.12.2 for Polaris. Still, I suppose it is worth a try. Even if I lose a little hashrate, I guess I'd prefer better stability over more speed. It'll work out higher in the end anyway.
