I have the same problem in a rig with 4 Radeon 7770. Every time I hit Q the pc crashes and I get a BSOD related to the file atikmdag.sys. Any ideas?

i get exactly same error - and a restart AMD 7950 card with no overclocking or extreme cgminer settings

I have the same issue. For one of four "quit", it hang. No amount of ^C and kill -9 fix it. i have to reboot to get rid of it.

Gentoo Linux.

Sounds proper strange, what happens if you try another miner like GUIMiner?

Good question!

Tested it: I can start and stop GUIMiner without any issues. The problem seems to be with cgminer. :S

Are you over clocking it? Download some decent Overclocking software and check the MHz for the Memorary, might be set to high!

Nope. I haven't touched the clocks or voltages at all. It's a fresh card, right out of the box. It crashes *after* I stop mining (i.e. when I hit 'q' to quit). cgminer displays "Thread 0 disabled" and then the computer locks up, and has to be restarted manually. Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I recently purchased a new video card, because mine was old and I wanted to get some more hashes for mining. Anywho, I upgraded from a 4850 to a 7770, and since the upgrade, cgminer now crashes my computer the moment I hit q for quit. At first it was giving 0x7f STOP BSODs, but I downgraded the ATI Catalyst Control and the video card driver to 12.10. After the downgrade, the BSODs stopped, but the crashes did not.

cgminer v.: 2.10.4
Video Driver: 9.2
Catalyst: 12.10
OS: Windows 7 SP1

My one concern is that the video card is bad and I have to return it, but hopefully it doesn't come to that.

Thanks! Please let me know if you need any more information.
