What CGMiner setting are you using? Please post either your config file (minus worker info) or command arguments.

Looks like a driver crash. Try lowering your OC? Or lowering your TC?

I have a PC with 2x290X / Win 7 64 bit. I have had good luck mining with cgminer-2.11.2, 850MHz Engine, 1250MHz Memory, Intensity 18 or 19.
Using --auto-fan option so that the cards do not downclock due to thermals.
It's very stable when mining, but the moment I quit by pressing q, the system  BSODs.

just an update. I got the config file from a fellow miner.

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://eu.coinium.org:3339/ -O username:x -g 1 -w 512 --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 24500 -I 20 --gpu-fan 70 --gpu-engine 947 --gpu-memclock 1250 --gpu-powertune 20

that seems to work well. No BSOD
