Title: After installing 6th GPU system freezes + crashing now Post by: ltcsprite on May 18, 2017, 07:32:33 PM So I had 5 rx480 up and running smoothly, as I was awaiting some risers before adding the 6th rx480. Running claymore miner v9.3 on win 10.
Today I added the 6th GPU, system booted up to the login screen, but once you login the system freezes and reboots. I removed the 6th card -- back to 5 GPU's and now when I start claymore miner I get the "ethdcrminer64.exe has stopped working error" and can't mine now. Any thoughts on what could have happened? So frustrating.

I have the same issue trying to run Claymore on a system with 2 cards and only 2GB of memory, upgrade forthcoming...

I just re-installed win10 and drivers and that fixed the problem. ;D I think what happened maybe is the 6th GPU had a diff vid card driver from a previous rig setup attempt, lol. It didn't like that.. not sure if thats why but thats my guess. setting your first miner up is a freakin' rollercoaster ride. :o Title: Re: After installing 6th GPU system freezes + crashing now Post by: Facinat on May 18, 2017, 09:24:02 PM 4GB, I just re-installed win10 and drivers and that fixed the problem. ;D I think what happened maybe is the 6th GPU had a diff vid card driver from a previous rig setup attempt, lol.

I have it set to 3000MB initial and 16000MB max. Good enough?
