sgminer freezes on quit for me on Windows 7 with 280x cards. Once it is frozen, I can't even kill the process, I have to do a hard reset.
I'm still on Catalyst 14.1, should I update it?
Using the binary from the rar linked in OP
I will second this and I already have the 14.6 beta drivers.
Just read an old thread of people complaining of the same problem in an older version of cgminer. The temp workaround was to hit the x to close the miner instead of using the Quit option. The downside is that cgminer doesn't reset your clocks and fans on exit, but who cares right. This works on this build of sgminer. You can also set CGWatcher to kill the process instead of quitting when stopping or restarting (Settings -> Miner -> top two check boxes).

Might I ask you, have you manually optimized the miners before distributing through the system?
I am a bit pissed (at myself) for not realizing there will bi this minerd thing available...
Is this "rminerd -o -u xx -p xxx" the correct setting, or is there any specific flag I missed?
This is what I used. and yes I believe the wallet miner is complete rubbish. rminerd is the go, and many think it could use a really good going over with the optimisation stick.
