Hello Guys,

I am newbie of mining at first I try to fix this problem via google but no luck. So I ask you guys for idea to solve my problem.

I am mining Ethereum everything works fine when my rig has 8 Nvidia and 3 AMD GPU. Unfortunately when I attached one more AMD card and start Claymore then windows freezes within 10 seconds.

So I try to reduce scope of problem I found that when I start Claymore with 4 AMD GPU plus 1 Nvidia GPU windows will freezes.

Here is what I try and It works fine:

- Test one by one of VGA Card and Riser.
- Test any group of 3 AMD plus 1 Nvidia. (Just like AMD card number 012 + Nvidia card number 1, AMD card number 023 + Nvidia card number 1 .... bla bla bla)

Here is what I try but no luck:

- Reinstall windows, driver and user latest version of Claymore
- Change PSU to dual 1000Watt + 1300Watt

If you guys has  any idea to investigate this problem, I would appreciate it. Smiley

Here is log file before Claymore freezes

Try starting them in separate instances....one for all AMDs, and one for Nvidia.

That should do it  Smiley
