I'm new to mining (or mining again after I stopped in 2014), and I can't get it working Sad

I'm running on windows with 4 AMD 290x cards.

Miner always crashes almost immediately.

The output I get:

After that it always crashes with the message "EthDcrMiner64.exe has stopped working"

Different startup files I have tried:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

pause

Any clue what could be the issue?
