"Display driver stopped responding and has recovered"
#1
I had to do a re-install of Windows today due to my SSD failing on me and my Truecrypt volume becoming corrupt.

I have two Sapphire R9 290X Tri-X's running in crossfire. Before the reinstall, everything was fine. I could run attacks for hours on end without any lag issues or overheating etc.

However, now, on this fresh install of Windows 7 64-bit, it hardly works. After anywhere between 10 seconds and a minute into an attack, my entire PC will just lock up. Sometimes it'll never recover and sometimes I'll get the "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" info bubble - but if it gets this far then the oclHashcat process has already crashed.

I've tried installing the 14.9 drivers from different sources [1] [2], but the problem persists.

I have also tried swapping my GPU's around in their PCIe slots just in case the card running my displays was faulty, but the problem still persists.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks.
