Title: White screen while mining Post by: wblabla4 on July 06, 2013, 05:05:07 PM While I'm mining normally with cgminer-3.1.0-win or GUIMiner, after about 1 and a half hours, the GPU fans start running at %100 and I get a white screen or something like this:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54262149/bm.png I always check the temps and make sure they're below 95 so they're not overheating. My mobo is a Gigabyte GA-970A-D3 and I didn't have any problem with it since I bought it 2 years ago. My GPUs are 2 PowerColor 5670's and they do a good 150Mh/s. They are overclocked but this problem also occurs without overclocking. This problem doesn't happen while normal usage or gaming. Drivers aren't up to date because of Crossfire problems with PowerColor 5670's in newer drivers. They are 12.8. This problem didn't occur until 2 weeks ago. So what can be the problem?

Tried it again two weeks ago and this started occuring. Are the cards "worn out"?

That's what I said in the original post, It never passes 95C. 3 months ago it reached 93C and I immediately stopped mining. It is usually around 68C when mining.Title: Re: White screen while mining Post by: Moebius327 on July 06, 2013, 06:50:42 PM Did you try to disable Crossfire?

Title: Re: White screen while mining Post by: os2sam on July 06, 2013, 09:18:59 PM Looks like a test pattern to me.
ATI Overdrive looks something like that when its calculating overclocks. Title: Re: White screen while mining Post by: Trillium on July 07, 2013, 07:57:00 AM Are you still getting those 90+ deg C temps while you are mining? That is arguably too hot. If I had to guess, your card is not stable at those temps and this is just the result that happens when it crashes.
Title: Re: White screen while mining Post by: wblabla4 on July 07, 2013, 03:35:22 PM Looks like a test pattern to me. I know the test pattern but it has the "AMD Overdrive" logo on the lower right corner. The error one doesn't.ATI Overdrive looks something like that when its calculating overclocks. Did you try to disable Crossfire? I also tried it with crossfire disabled but the problem persists.Are you still getting those 90+ deg C temps while you are mining? That is arguably too hot. If I had to guess, your card is not stable at those temps and this is just the result that happens when it crashes. No, I don't get temps over 80C. After it was 93C, I cleaned the heatsinks and it's about 60-80C while mining.It looks like you closed the blinds on your window. sorry, i can't help but couldn't resist commenting. :-\ LOLTitle: Re: White screen while mining Post by: wblabla4 on July 08, 2013, 12:33:27 AM Also, my second card sometimes "derps out"
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54262149/scrrr.png Is it because of the "ULTIMATEH POWAR SAVING TECHNOLOGAY" thing? Title: Re: White screen while mining Post by: wblabla4 on July 26, 2013, 01:43:41 PM Bump
