error: ProbablePrimeChainTestFast 0/4

I have win7, 13.2 driver and I clocked both mem and core to 1000. 280x. Restart and still same error. I know newer driver should be installed but I got the same software setup on other rigs and it works fine.
Does it crash and stop mining? or shows only one error and keeps going?

It crashes.
Sometimes it has several rows of error: ProbablePrimeChainTestFast 0/4. Like 20 or so. On two other rigs I have pretty much all same except processors are Sempron 145 and this rig has i5. And I use this rig for gaming and stuff also, so maybe there is some kind of other issues.

I will try driver update later.
Actually there is something odd: GPU 2: sieve size = 550556388001 (7 bits)
This value is wrong and it's no wonder the miner crashes. I'm gonna have to investigate how this can happen...
It should be: GPU 2: sieve size = 55050240 (26 bits)
