Basically if your rigs is unstable, you have to search on the culprit and must not rely on auto restarts

just being proactive and not a reactive approach is much better

a lot of things could cause a rig to be unstable

share some infos needed in order to help you out effectively

a lot of things could cause a rig to be unstable

yeah, everything could be possible like:

• because Win is updated
• Power issue
• troubled Riser
• massive OC

ok i should say that this situation suddenly happened without any changes
this is the log that where clamore restart after 12 hours work without any problem

Have you try to disable antivirus ? Sometimes antivirus make claymore unstable, so it can make the windows system unstable too. But if you have done that, i can sure your windows system need reinstall. Maybe some system file corrupt or that happen when you updated the windows. You can try to reserved update windows or disable antivirus first before reinstall it.

ok ill test and report

You've asked to provide more info above. Those logs showed something went wrong (that's only the result) we need something that may cause that. As other people said above, it can be caused by various reasons:

Power Issue: then tell us PSUs that you are using
OverClock - Under Volt: then tell us your current OC-UV settings.
And so on..


Show us your bat file, hide your sensitive info! It will make us easier to analyze your problems.

iuse claymore 11.9 with 18.5 amd driver. now actually i use claymore 11.5 with  blockchain  driver  before, but this happens  again .with one difference .its not restart claymore but stuck on this :
                            WATCHDOG: GPU 5 hangs in OpenCL call, exit

It showed that you've set (-minspeed), when your rig doesn't reach that specified amount of speed, the miner will restart nor call (-r) parameter (if -r set to "1") it will re-starting Claymore.

Try to bring back your cards setting (troubled card) to default may help.

Will be better to visit Claymore official thread for the best result related to your problem!

change the riser on gpu 3,5

low a little bit the OC -10 on clock and mm and +10 mv

blockchain driver use a little bit more power, dont keep it.

i use 650 psu for every 4 aours rx570 and my wattage is under 600watt for each psu and i have no problem until now .i have another rig that i did exactly this configuration and have no problem at all.
this is my claymore settings:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal '''' -epsw x -cvddc 920 -mvddc 920 -minspeed 175 -ethi 6 -asm 2 -ttli 56 -tstop 72

coreclock is on the bios and its set on  1150 and memclock on 2050 and in the other rig that work without problem the cvddc and mvddc is on 900 on rx580
i tried some other clock but the problem not solved

[vb.mohsen2]

change the riser on gpu 3,5

low a little bit the OC -10 on clock and mm and +10 mv

blockchain driver use a little bit more power, dont keep it.

actually ill try this when new riser reach to me .but i dont think the problem is with the riser

[vb.mohsen2]

its happened again
not antivirus fault
next step is reinstall the windows

[vb.mohsen2]

reinstall the windows and 34 hours work without problem.ill report 24-48 hours later

Could be anything mate. Computers are sneaky bastards  Right now i found my rig freezed, but i think that is becourse of this god damn heat wave northern europe is feeling right now. I acually had to shut down my rig to prevent overheating due to the weather. Its sad, but i guess its the new reality with global warming.

i use air conditioner for cooling my rigs.in my country because of drouth, electricity rationed

I have this issue also with some of my rigs.

They ran fine for months and now they started crashing from time to time.

What you should try to do is lower your memory clock a little and increase your memory voltage a little and see if it goes away.

If it doesn't then maybe your PSU is dying.

These RX gpus were always a pain to get stable. Especially difficult with the bad AMD drivers.

for now no.54 hours without any problem
thanks alot guys

[vb.mohsen2]

it happened again.

[vb.mohsen2]

change riser position in rig 70 hours work

[vb.mohsen2]

one riser that have problem, stop working completely .i changed it .and this happened again after 18 hours.
