Have been mining Shift for about four months now until the last few days. My rig keeps crashing now keep getting "thread stuck in device driver" running windows 10 I have tried everything I could think of to fix it with no luck so I uninstalled windows and reinstalled it and it worked fine for about 6 hrs and now i'm back to it crashing every 20 sec as soon as I start mining running 4 R 390x's for card's . Any help would be nice
Does it happen if you mine something else also? Your mining to a pool I suppose.
How about with 3, 2 or one card mining?
I don't know much about running GPU miners on windows myself but can suggest some things to check.
Also, you could check the thread or forum concerning the mining software you are using.
Since the problem has started recently, I would think about what changes there have been in the past few days
- software update? driver update
- change in GPU clock speed? Memory speed?
- Temperature change ? (affects power supplies and cooling)
- Possibly a power supply is starting to malfunction?
- Loose power connector
- also, see what kind of system information you can find while mining and not...
(eg, fan speeds, voltages) Could someone suggest good tools do do this for windows?
