I have 4xRX 480 using Claymore v9.8 (also with v9.7) is crashing in Windows 7 (x64) with AMD Blockchain drivers. Anyone else has similar problem?
EDIT: I followed recommended steps as follows:
1) uninstalled MSI Afterburner in normal mode
2) using DDU to clean up drivers in safe mode
3) installed Blockchain drivers in normal mode
4) patched newly installed drivers in normal mode
5) restarted my rig
6) run claymore without OC
7) got message "Windows closed this program"
yes, i basically did the exact steps you did, claymore 9.8 exits at the pool prompt. win7 did recognize all cards.
seems win7 users are out of luck on this one. not going to switch to win 10, not worth the effort at this point.
Exactly. Considering what others are facing its not worth it to switch to win 10 just for this. Hope this beta gets an update or claymore does.
The current issue with the New Beta Driver is that they changed the API that allows Claymore to properly set the OC and voltages. Once Claymore updates his miner's code with a new release this should be rectified for Win 10 users to OC and Undervolt from the batch files again.
For Windows 7 users I doubt a Claymore update will help. Consider upgrading to Win 10. Even currently on Claymore 9.8 I get my RX580 to work properly with low power usage. Just dont patch driver after install and use Global Wattman supplied with the driver installation to adjust the Voltage.
It's a bit buggy so set to manual, enter your values then apply. Then set it back to Automatically and apply again. Set Core and Memclocks with Afterburner 4.4.0 Beta 16 with the previous mentioned fixes. Those apply correctly to RX580's.
