You may need a headless/dummy HDMI plug, or try seeing if you have auto sleep or hibernate on. If it’s the former just searching dummy HDMI plug for sale on Google should yield results.

Thats why you shouldnt be mining with Windows. You will have nothing but problems with the different drivers, updates, and all that garbage. Mine with a linux system and you can just let it run for months without even looking at it.

sorry I have to ask you , should I overclock the gpu's again on ubuntu or is it ok to keep the same bios for windows ?
