Hasn't worked for me, win 8.1 x64, 14.6rc2, I still have one of the cards showing code 43 (5 out of 6 working) what am I doing wrong?
What did you do exactly?
With default config(checkboxes) app won't anything - it will just create reg files for you to execute manually.
If  you check "Modify Registry" - then it will apply changes.

Also, do you run your rig headless, every time I unplug the monitor my teamviewer session shows a black screen, I can't see anything.

Edit: Manually merged the reg file and it seems to have worked this time, now I just need to work out the headless side of it.
I'm running headless with 6x290.
What GPUs are you using?
And was the issue present before the mod?

lbr, I'm having a similar problem on Windows 7 Home Premium. I have 6x XFX 7970s on a Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 with both x1 slots pin shorted. I have tried 14.4 (moded inf files), 14.6 may 23 (app), and 14.7 july 9 (app). What happens is I either get code 43 on 1 out of 6 gpu's (it's a different gpu with each catalyst version), or my computer instantly shuts down between the windows logo screen and the Welcome screen, until I do a cold reboot, then I get code 43. I think it may be a Windows problem because I'm able to run BAMT on this rig with the 14.6 linux drivers (though I only get HW errors because I can't figure out how to install sgminer in linux properly). I've been able to install 14.6 on four 6 or 7 gpu rigs with Windows, including one rig with the same motherboard and 6x r9 270X's.
