Long time lurker, first time posting... Wealth of knowledge, THANK YOU to everybody here 
I'm curious if anybody has had any success running:
Windows 10 (v1703)
More than 8 AMD Vegas
I have 3 rigs of 8 Vegas running on the Aug23 Blockchains no problem, rock solid on ETH-only (~44Mh/s), ETH-dual (depends on secondary) and XMR (1960 Mh/s) to the maximum extent. With all units running below 160W for all 3 ops.
Until recently I was limited by my PSU to only 8 Vegas. Now looking to add a couple more GPUs to each rig now that the "masochism" is over.
So, my woe's:
a. With Aug23 Blockchain drivers installed, simply tried adding the 9th GPU. Upon restart, immediately ran into issues. Full DDU. Computer saw all 9 GPUs as generic (minor success!). Cleared out AMD folder, full reinstall of Aug23 Blockchain drivers. No dice. Same issues on restart.
b. Then tried the latest 17.11.2 drivers (with all 9 GPUs hooked up). Full DDU, install 17.11.2. Failed installation 2-3 times, no relevant error messages. Gave up on this round
c. Then tried 17.11.1 drivers (with all 9 GPUs hooked up). Full DDU, install 17.11.1, installation success but on multiple restarts, AMD Settings crashes immediately. Thought, that's fine, all I do in AMD Settings would be to change the driver to "Compute" anyhow. I can make a Regedit hack for that. So..
Thus I had 17.11.1 installed on Windows 10 v 1703, with all 9 GPUs recognized as Vega correctly --->> drivers successfully installed (but as described, I couldn't get AMD Settings to launch). So then I went to install the PowerPlayTable mod, and immediately upon restart, all the GPUs were no longer recognized (more accurately described: Driver Error).
Anybody finding success running 9+ GPUs on Windows10 (either 1703 or 1709)? If so, what drivers are you running and any special considerations?
Thanks guys, looking forward to being a contributing member here
