What is the original bios version number for your card ?
13-2E3470U.X4L / 13-2E3470U.X51 / 113-2E3472U.053 / 113-2E3470U.O5Y / 113-2E3470U.S5X / 113_2E3470U.S52 / 113-2E3470U.X5W / Huh

What bios you flashed on your card ? silent bios or gaming bios ?

What is the bios version you downloaded from the internet and flashed to your card ?

Rom files are not interchangeable . You can flash them to another nitro , but then your hashrate will drop to lower 20's or under or just going up and down ,you can kill your card if you mining hours with the wrong bios flashed to your card ...

"Thread Stuck In Device Driver error"
This is usually a driver problem and rarely hardware ( if you run ur card with the wrong bios , you might killed your card ). Or you mixed up your bios files , Usually, a vga driver update or the right vga BIOS can fix it . What driver version are u using on win 10 with the modded bios ? I would try to use this one "Non-WHQL-Win10-64Bit-Radeon-Software-Crimson-16.11.5-Nov25"

Hi, Thanks for the inputs

1.The original Bios version is 113-2E3470U.05Z.

2.Gaming Bios flashed on my card.

3. I purchased Custom BIOS from Heliox and he asked for the original BIOS and modded it. So the Version should be same I guess.

4. Oh I thought mostly the lot has same type of BIOS stock settings so I can flash one modded rom into all cards. I did not know interchanging ROM files would drop Hashrates.

5. VGA Bios update? How to do that? I flashed the original ROM though.

6. On Windows I am using 16.9.2.

P.S. You can check the exact Ubuntu Error in the post, I have corrected the image link or just click -

So I just ordered a new Rx480 Sapphire Nitro+ OC 8Gb DDR5.

It worked absolutely fine on 23.8 Mh/s Claymore windows for few Hours.

Then I flashed Custom Vbios by Heliox and it gave me rate of 28.8 Mh/s on ethos.

It ran for around 7-8 hours perfectly it crashed and then crashed thrice in span of thirty minutes.

Then the card gave error to even boot the OS. I have tried. ethos, windows 7, windows 10, Ubuntu 16.04.02 .

This has happened to some of my cards before too. I don't understand why?

Here's the error Ubuntu and ethos gives -

And windows 10 gives -

Thread Stuck In Device Driver error

And Windows 7 gives - Blue screen of Death

Any kind of Suggestions. Inputs are appreciated.

Thanks Guys

P.S. other Specs of Rig -
Mobo -H81 Pro BTC R2.0
Ram 4gb Hynix
CPU - Intel 1150 Celeron 1840T(CO).

1. I was able to flash original BIOS with driverless Windows. But as soon as I install driver again the same error with original BIOS too.
2. Tried the BIOS switch too.
