9.1 still unstable. (although a bit better than v9)

i wonder if its possible to do a clean driver install post windows vista of is that totally dead 
Don't know why you'd want to use Vista? But download DDU to clean your system, run it in safe mode.
v9.1

Am I doing something wrong?

STILL CANT CONNECT SSL.
9.1 can't connect using SSL to flypool servers (tried all servers), so I have to use non-encrypted connection.
BUT, DevFee defaults to SSL, and when DevFee can't connect, my rig stops mining in the middle of the night!!
Can someone please help?
@ocminer, can't connect to suprnova with SSL. Any help?
suprnova has different port for SSL (2242 instead of 2142), did you confirm that? Don't know about flypool. Been mining on suprnova SSL fine, it works with or without SSL. Perhaps strange issue with your computer, router, or internet? Maybe try different region server for pool?
9.0 is most stable version so far
more stable than 9.1?

You could try uninstalling MSI afterburner if you have it installed. Then uninstall ALL of the amd packages. Then reinstall all amd packages minus the AMD settings package. I do not like the AMD catalyst/wattman app. I believe it conflicts with MSI afterburner, so I do not use it. I uncheck it in the AMD install process and if it does get installed, I remove in control panel.
I usually do this process when upgrading drivers OR flashing bios.
Also, I've found many errors on my Windows 7 to Windows 10 upgrade systems and Windows 8 to Windows 10 upgrade systems by checking event viewer.
I usually see AMD has stopped or a service lacks permissions, etc, etc. I've found doing the advanced reinstall option is best to resolve the internal system errors.
Your other issues could also be related to not having enough power to each video card and pci-e riser. I typically put at least 650 watt Gold for every 3 x rx 480. When a PSU is closer to ~50% capacity it will be the most efficient in drawing power, thus reducing energy waste.

well good luck, when you stated 2gig of ram hours and hours came to mind 
maybe it could be more of windows using up all most of the ram available,i just checked one of my rigs with four cards and its using 2.2 Gb of ram plus, and these mining rigs only so windows aero id disabled appearance is set for best performance not looks, if there is a best buy near you some of the stock ddr 3
edit: how old is the mobo i cannot stress the importance of the chipset driver enough its a set of instructions for the os to be able properly install video audio and usb drivers.

Well, I just swapped the 8 GB card for a 4 GB one and it still crashed. Memory usage only reached about 1.6 out 2 GB so it's not running out per se. I may look further into chipset drivers, but zecminer64 was working initially so I still think there's some MB or BIOs code kicking in to protect something at some point. Better yet, I've got a Fry's nearby so I can easily pick up some extra RAM to give that a try. Hmm, also to test my MB/BIOs theory I guess I can try clearing the BIOs settings and try once more with just one card before doing a full W10 reset which I know will work, but will set me back hours and hours and hours...
Anyway I'm going to call it a day for now, thanks for the troubleshooting help. I'll pick it up again tomorrow and see if I can solve it.

does this failure happen after installing second card?, how memory is available?have you set virtual memory to a min. of 16GB?
Hmmm, yes, a 16 GB swap file, but only 2 GB of 800 MHz RAM for a 64-bit OS on the two boxes that are giving me trouble. The third and similar box which worked fine (with the exception having 3 PCIe slots but not taking a third GPU) has 4 GB of 1333 MHz RAM so you might be on to something. Should Claymore need more than 2 GB and do 8 GB cards require more than 4 GB cards? I'm running 8 GB ones now but have a couple of 4 GB ones I could try...

i have experimented and 8 gig gpu's (or at least rx480's) will not hash with 1 gig system ram.. possibly 2 gig also i didnt take notes it was more of a lark really to try.
they dont crash though just hash at 0h/s
no reason to mine with less than 4 gig ram these days. and four is enough for the hobbyist miner.

what mobo are you using? do you have the resource cd that came with it if so run it and make sure that the chipset driver is installed.

Not sure, they're compact-case bare-bones HPs with either an Athlon qaud core or Core 2 Duo CPUs. I tried downloading and running the AMD Chipset driver package for 64-bit W10 and it said something like "system incompatible" and just exited so I'm guessing I don't need it.
I'm starting to think it's the 2 GB RAM (and maybe plus running 8 GB cards) that could be causing it. Not sure why it would work initially then stop however.... hmmm.

does this failure happen after installing second card?
For the one I'm testing now, yes that's when it first crashed but I think it might just be a coincidence. It still crashes the exact same way after reverting back to just the original card in the original PCIe slot.

MSI Z97A Gaming 6 Intel Z97 Socket 1150 ATX Desktop Motherboard
Will this work the same as Z97 Gaming 5, MSI Z97 Intel LGA 1150 DDR3 USB 3.0 ATX Gaming Motherboard?
Anybody using this mobo yet?

FWIW, I have an older MSI Z97 Gaming 7 and I've gotten 6 GPUs to work with it.
check device manager make display drivers are there and there are no triangles for the graphics card (s)
All good there, the usual monitor + little orange star icon is there.

v9.1 so far so good
v9.0 was very stable aswell no problem at all.
