Hello,

I have issue with my rx480 mining rig, it runs before perfect, but i ahve to change ssd, and after the new win10 installation, the miner stuck after detecting pools.

I use latest win10 ltsb, asrock h81 btco pro r2.0 mobo. Onboard display is selected, and gen1 also.
I see my cards at the device manager, also installed the chipset driver, but the miner cannot start.

OverdriveNtool also detect my gpus. Change the mobo and the cpu as well, it isnt solve the issue, any idea?
I think something missing, but i dont have a clue, out of ideas Sad

I got same problem yesterday after updating to 1803.
I had to run DDU to remove drivers and install BC drivers to get it work, it was no go for Adrenaline drivers (and AMD/ATI Pixel Clock Patcher).

What is BC drivers?
I got same problem yesterday after updating.

BC is the blockchain driver pute-Release-Notes.aspx]https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Radeon-Software-Crimson-ReLive-Edition-Beta-for-[Suspicious link removed]pute-Release-Notes.aspx
Many complain about the latest update (1803) of Microsoft. In the rigs it is mandatory to disable updates to the system and drivers of the videocard and monitor this.

Starting with 18.3.4 there no reason to go back to Blockchain drivers.
18.4.1 were bad, but 18.5.1 are decent again, so I would just stick to these or 18.3.4

Has anyone figured out a fix to this?  I have three rigs and two are up and running but one day all of a sudden one rig went down and it took almost two weeks just to get the drivers recognized by windows again (error code 43) but now they work (using 18.5.1 amd drivers) the only part that doesn't work now is the claymore miner it just gets stuck now after pools are specified.  I tried turning firewalls off and that didn't work, updated almost everything, patched drivers, and also rolled back from 1803 to 1709.  I just can't seem to figure this out.
