I do have afterburner, not using it at the moment. Bat file is very simple, but it worked for a long time previously so I don't think that is the issue.
Here is the bat, obviously I took out the usernames and whatnot:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool coinotron.com:3344 -ewal user.worker -esm 2 -epsw password -allpools 1
-cclock 1250 -mclock 1850
trying putting that into the .bat file without awesome miner on. I know it may not seem like the issue but this saved me before.
also before it freezes does is there a pop up in the bottom left corner saying AMD setting have been restored to default?
