No problem and would never say you were a dunce.

Question??

Rule out confilcts with HP or Wondershare.

Yes I am learning lots of things. So this isnt an all around bad time. Its actually more about the time. Anyways, the HP reference is from win 7. Sometimes on my old computer I would install HP drivers and it would open catalyst. so i want to install GPU before printers.

I have reset computer. all I have done at this point is install updates. I am going to run a MTB for reference. I am next going to install the cards before anything else, with only drivers for cards, No software like oc guru. And see how they run. I will run another MTB afterwards for comparison. so here we go, round three

(for my sake, everyone please look excited, anxious and on the edge of your seats, makes me feel like Im not alone, ROFL)

Here is MTB after fresh install. I installed Killer Network driver, so i could access web to run updates. Updates have been run. This record is after install, update, and the network driver.

[Papa_D]

ok.
Fresh windows install.
installed network driver to access web for windows updates.
updated windows.
Followed AMD how to install r9 390 PDF guide. http://64.183.18.101/faq/files/r9390.pdf
Ran Furmark
Immediate shut down and re boot
note when I hooked monitor to top card, “plug” was still in hdmi slot. This indicates this was previously the “second” card. I am going to test each card individually again. Previously the test would run for a little bit before resetting system, perhaps the rest was occurring when calling for the second card in crossfire. Gonna try to run test with the now suspected bad card alone. I am sure I did this the other day, but I am going to do it again.
Here is MTB log run after the shut down with both cards installed.

G’day Papa D. Here is a bit of trivia that may help calm your nerves in regards to reading these log files. The trick is knowing what should be in them, what should not be in them, what will be in them regardless of whether your PC is running right or not and what pertains to your issue. Most things will be harmless. Someone good with these log files can separate the fluff from the chaff. Not to worry.

When you installed the os again what devices did you have connected?

Hi there,

Don’t mind me, just chirping in here

I see in your log that “RzWizard.exe” faulted and rebooted your computer. I need you to remove it and try it again. My gut and brain still point to a overloaded PSU.

RzWizard.exe is related to Razer hardware, but I’m curious to see if you can remove it and run the benchmark without rebooting. If so, that was the culprit. If not, I’m leaning towards your PSU not being able to handle 2 R9 cards in a CF configuration without resetting itself in protection.

Im not having a bad time, just keep getting interuppted by customers with petty issues “My water meter is spinning and the leak is in the yard, can you come right away” “My air conditioner is not running, its 100 degrees in the house and I have a new born, can you come right away” Chill out people, I have serious issues, my R9’s won’t crossfire…I appreciate the encouragement LC

When you installed the os again what devices did you have connected?

I may have accidentally plugged up the secondary HDD thinking it was the media drive. Its unplugged now. I had the media drive plugged up so I could install network driver from disc. my mouse and keyboard. and speakers. the onboard devices usb, card reader.

Yeah, that is the razer sysnopses I choose do not install, it is wanting to install cause the mouse is plugged in and its settings are in a cloud. Maybe I shoul duse a different mouse, but will try to locate the exe and remove it.

The single card runs furmark with no trouble. Am going to try 3d mark now with single card. Then switch cards and repeat.

Thank all of you for helping. I am far better with my trades than I am computers!

Ok if you have to reinstall the os again only connect the mouse,keyboard and monitor..This should help with those core drivers that failed to install. Then if all goes well connect one device at a time and give it time to setup.

[Papa_D]

both cards benchmark well, so That should rule out bad cards. So, power supply as suggested already to my thick head several times. (Guild mate is an IT person and said first time it happened that it was PSU) or maybe the pci slot on MOBO is bad? Have to do some other things for a little while, but will google how to test my pci slots. If it turns out to be a PSU, my options are to run a single card and give other card to wife (love her but not really liking that one, plus it will probably require a bigger PSU on her machine, so I would be buying a PSU anyways) or buy another PSU, and maybe a graphics card compatible with HER current set up to sweeten the deal…

One of my wife’s favorite past times lately is phases like:

“Still not working? Oh Honey Im sorry, youll get it figured out. Now, what was wrong with your old one, cause I am using it and it seems to be fine to me, How much did you spend on that again?”

Sadly, im starting to feel like I deserve the RAZ ROFL, gotta Love her!

So,anyone care to jump out there and reccomend a PSU for this build? Ifindeed that is the solution?

Thanks Vger, Ill keep that in mind. Great Tip!

Ok the power requirements i have found are 1100 watts with at least 33 amps or higher on the 12 volt for cross fire.. You could get the same brand you have now or cosair,antec,thermaltake…etc

Also as suspected these r 390’s produce a lot of heat..

Note: see my link to psu requirements for graphic cards..
