Hello everyone,

Normally I run my config in Ubuntu (According to the sweet manual from this website) with minor issues (no temp).
During a lazy Sunday I thought I'll give Windows 10 a try in combination with oclHashcat. After installation (no errors) I checked my device manger and it showed only 2 of my graphic cards. I used the latest crimson drivers.

Using my bff google i found out that it could be solved by performing a clean install with the latest drivers..
I performed the uninstall procedure (app manager AMD) booted in safe mode and used Guru3d's display driver uninstaller to completely wipeout any AMD existence. Strange enough Guru3d's tool was able to identify my 3 GPU's during the removal procedure. After that I did a clean install but the issue was still there.

Also AMD Settings gives a notice : No AMD Graphics driver is installed, or the AMD driver is not working properly ...

My GPU's are Sapphire Vapor-X R9 290X, (HAWAI).

Anyone the same issue ? is there a limit in the amount for GPU's for Windows 10 ?


thnx Everyone !

I Use 16.4.1 (new Version) driver 16.150.2211.1001
The first attempt was with 16.3.2

I used the (official)uninstall mgr from AMD , Guru3d's tool was a added action
to be sure that everything was gone..

Thnx for your help !

Need use 16.3.2 official drivers with BETA 16.4.1 almost always something with few gpu not work, try again with uninstall drv with amd tool , restart computer, install oficial 16.3.2 drv.
Windows 10 64bit you use with all updates or newest installer with kernel x.1511 or higher ?
(old win 10 version lower then x.1511 can not work too well like all windows older without service pack, kernel x.1511 is like sp1 in win7)
