So I switched to Zcash after mining ethereum for a few weeks. Haven't had any problems over there. Now I've downloaded EWBF's Zcash Miner 0.3.4b and it randomly stops after a few shares. Here's a screenshot.

Running @ latest nvidia driver.
Windows 10 @ last update.
You can try to run with an automatic software like Nicehash which can be downloaded here
https://www.nicehash.com/?p=nhmintroIt mines automatically the best coin for you or you manually select which algorithm to mine. By the way I am impressed that GTX 970 is making more than my GTX 1060-s. Have you overclocked it and what brand are your graphic cards ?
I've already tried Nicehash, it seems to crash when benchmarking so I can't use that. I really want to mine Zcash tho. Both cards are from EVGA, one is a SSC and the other is a FTW. Both overclocked to +125/+630 (1529Mhz/4130Mhz)
I have an Asus board which kept crashing in Nicehash during benchmark but once I changed in the bios the PCI-e configuration and put from Auto to Gen2 now it is working like it should. Try to change this at your board and give a try again to Nicehash. If it still doesn't work then go to option 2 below.
Option 2.
Back on topic why don't you try Zec Miner 0.2.0b, I used to mine Zcash before going to Nicehash with that software from EWBF and it never stopped, it kept running for days long without any problems. GPU-s used were GTX 1060 Palit Storm X 3GB.
