Hello, recently I've been having some issues with Claymore Crashing. Here's what the problem is
"WATCHDOG: GPU 0 hangs in OpenCL call, exit
08:32:42:037 1adc watchdog - thread 1, hb time 76254
08:32:42:037 1adc WATCHDOG: GPU 0 hangs in OpenCL call, exit

08:32:42:040 1adc watchdog - thread 9, hb time 63
08:32:43:100 1adc Restarting OK, exit..."
Whenever this happens, the whole computer freezes (Not using the computer for anything else) It is interesting to note, though, how GPU 4 doesn't hang like the others.
What might be causing this, it wasn't running for very long when it did this. Yesterday it ran for 24 hours and 2 minutes, then did the same thing.

Now it freezes right away when it starts. I'm going to re-download it.
Did you ever figure out a solution?
As @PCRGM says, it restarts then freezes.
specifically, at least for me, the new log file created after claymore restarts, stops at "GPU 0 hangs in OpenCL call" then the PC freezes....This never happens when I start the miner normally.
@master2neo What driver version and what version of claymore are you running?
Did you got a solution? I have the same problem into a Win10 AMD Rig with 6 MSI R9 390X, which is a clone of a second one running very well for a long time! The only HW difference is the CPU (malfunction RIG with one Intel Core i3 and the other has a Core I5).
The Claymore version V7.0 or V7.1, V7,2 does not change anything neither intensity or powerlimit parameters. All temperature sensors where also checked and no OC is beeing used.
The only difference I have found until now between the two Rigs it was a Error in some counters when running the Command "PERFMON". Also solved it with the command line "lodctr /r". (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/perfmon-problems-unable-to-add-counters/e90f231d-0014-457d-8b1f-5f342971597a)
I have exchanged DRAM's (no difference) and the Motherboard. I'm making the final tests.
Check also the USB Riser, since any malfunction of the cable/connector or riser board can also cause this hangs issue according with complete testing I have done and after change all the hardware (CPU, DRAM, motherboard, PSU's).
I have determined that it is not risers or gpu's.
Not that technical minded on software related, but to obvious to ignore was that the crash started together with the first attack on eth. Can that be an issue?
I am pool mining, but this is a low spec rig. It however did mine flawlessly before the attacks.
Any insights to that being the issue or why it cant be?
EDIT: Ran 5 hours then crash.
i use -wd 0 so it will keep mining with the other 5 cards if something does happen, which is only occasionally as I have nearly pinned down my ideal settings for each card.
Updated drivers to 10.9.2 (I think) and running either 7.1 or 7.2 of claymore. Can't make it passed 12 hours without my rig freezing up. No ping, No remote connection, and no hashrates... It being 40 mins away at work kills me. Lost 2 weekends of mining now.
Going to go back to go back to pre 7.0 and see if that solves it.
If that doesn't work I'm going to buy this:

And hook up my Pi rev 1 to control it so I can remote hard restart my machine and get it back going.
Came into work today and I either have a dead GPU or powered riser. Hoping its the riser. Ordered 2 more. (1 for a backup). Hopefully have the 6th GPU back and running Wednesday. I know I could plug in the card into a working riser to test, but I didn't feel like cutting more zip ties.
Running 6.3 Claymore. 3 hrs stable so far.

Since i have similar problem, I do not plan to create another thread to make the issue more complex. Instead, I will discuss the issue in this thread.
Click the Spoiler button below to see my log file (I have simplified it / omitted some not important logs, so that you can check more easily.
Notice the time between the time 07:13:54:946 and 11:48:42:889? The Watchdog restarted the miner, but was stop at 07:13:54:946, when I notice it, I remote login to the rig via teamviewer at 11:48:42:889. Without doing anything, the Claymore just continue loading and started mining. I did not do anything else.
I need to troubleshoot 2 issues:
1) What cause my GPU2 always hang randomly around once every 2 or 3 days. I can find fix this issue, then issue below is not relevant anymore.
2) What cause this Watchdog restarting miner stop. Only resume when I login to the rig.

It consists of 8 Vega 64s, which I managed to set them all properly in terms of power consumption as well as hashrate.
I have been mining for several weeks now with it.
At first I mined cryptonight coins, especially Monero, but after a while I realized that it is best for me to try Ethereum maybe.
I did that and after all the tweaks I did in overdrive and reg, I get 44 mhs/card.
A few days ago I started having this issue with one card, that caused the hanging in opencl error for me too, showing at first 0 mhs and then blocking the miner.
The good thing is that I know what is the exact card which causes the problems.
The bad thing is that I replaced riser, power cable, reinstalled drivers after DDU, reapplied PPTs, disabled Crossfire and UIps and the card is still hanging after about 10-15 minutes of mining, and the miner freezes, even though I also added in the batch file -wd 0 -gser 1 and -gser2.
I did this thing one day after I got the hanging issues. While the gpus were working, not mining, but still working, I pulled out the 2 power cables from this one gpu and then reinstalled them. An interesting behaviour was seen after this, more exactly, the rgb lighting is solid white all the way. It doesn't matter if I put the rgb lighting to off or change colors for all the cards, this one stays solid white.
I imagine this might have something to do with the hanging, probably I have broken something in it, don't know exactly.
Even though it still works and mines, until it stops.
Worth mentioning (maybe) that the other 7 cards have a Samsung memory and this one doesn't, according to GPU-Z. Maybe this one can't be underclocked and undervolted as the others. But I have taken this into consideration also, and put 1402/925, 1100/905 and 0 power limit. Still nothing. I will try to put maybe a little less on the gpu clock, but not too less.
My overdrive settings are 852/800, 1100/800, 3500-4900 RPM, -25 power limit.
I know, you will say that they are way underclocked and undervolted, but until this issue, all worked just perfectly, with a 1490W consumption. I did this because, as you know, Vegas are power hungry, and I had like 2000W consumption without these settings. My lightbulb was flickering in the room. Cheesy
I checked all the forums and read this whole topic, but can't seem to find a solution.
