Reinstall driver makes no difference. No bsod the screen just locks up then goes black and the PC is stuck so I have to do a hard reset at that point.
Topic: [Help!] Ether miner freezes computer and graphics on close (Read 374 times)
Reinstall driver, some bsod?
EDIT: Solved. unplugged dvi and used remote by teamviewer, I can only view the screen 640x480 but I can close the app without hangups now.
-------------------
I just put together a small rig and the miner works fine running it but if I go to close the miner it locks the computer up and I have to force a shutdown. I think it is a graphical issue of some sort. I have 2 R9 290 reference card hooked up to pci-e x1 powered risers and it is older lga 775 hardware with win 8.1. On my other 775 machine with 2x hd 7950's I do not have the issue and works flawlessly.
I have the machine using video from one of the cards, I think the issue goes away if I force video through integrated hardware but I have no control over the cards, so I cant see temps, change fan speed, or undervolt in msi afterburner.
Hardware specs
Intel E7500 cpu
4 gm ddr 2 ram
250 gb hdd
Intel DQ45CD
R9 290 reference cards 4gb
powered usb risers 16x to 1x
amd 15.12 drivers
--------
Hopefully someone has experience with this kind of issue, I would be happy enough to just use integrated graphics but gain control of the gpu cards if someone knows how to do that.
