i've had a look at the SA miner.  its still effectively a Linux miner but using cygwin to be able to run on windows.  you also need to download a certain python package as well as the default windows one wont work

I had a very weird problem with Claymore and teamviewer, but since no one else ever mentioned it, I thought it was some random Kraken thing. I can have a look using teamviewer(TV) and the miner will simply stop. Hit "s" to see stats and it will either start going again or activate watchdog and restart. Then it will run until the sun explodes...........until I click on the TV window again 

Hi, im using Windows 7 64bits with Rx 480. For the first time, i got this message. Can someone help me, please.

Here is my log :

Assuming you're running W10:

Right click top of miner's windows, properties, Options tab, disable Quickedit Mode and Insert Mode.

Should solve the "freezing" when you click on the miner.

GPU-Z is an info tool for the most part and is safe to use and will not affect drivers or wattman. For the other windows miners just read my earlier posts.

Hi Claymore,

Is it possible that you explain the workings of the effect this switch has on the system and how this effects an already overclocked GPU ?

Cheers !   
   

Thanks

can you share your modded bios rom here or via PM so i will update mine ?
edit : are you using SA with Python as you described earlier?
