AMD ReLive Update Problems

[bwinzey]

OK, so I have a PowerColor Devil R9 390x which I had previously used MSI Afterburner to OC flawlessly. Yesterday, I downloaded the new AMD update, which comes with Wattman, it's own built-in overclocker. It seems to crash a lot more than when using Afterburner and EVERY SINGLE TIME that it crashed, the memory gets locked to 150MHz, where it stays there until I roll back the AMD driver, and it gets unlocked again.
It's getting pretty annoying, as even when not using Wattman and a game crashes/gets stuck, it automatically assumes GPU error and resets the settings and locks it to 150MHz for not reason.
Is there any way to completely disable Wattman or something? This is getting on my nerves.

You'd be better off (and have a lot more features) if you got rid of Afterburner now (and anything else GPU 'tuning' related, Strix, etc), and did a clean install of the newest AMD drivers again.

Uninstall it all in 'Programs & Features', then use this to get rid of remnants:

Then go for your clean AMD driver stack.

If you look on the www.AMD.com support site in the drivers and download section.
You will find a minimum setup file for download Bwinzey.

The minimum setup is just the cards video driver to run when a game is played.
You can then continue to use any third party overclocking software like Msi afterburner overclocking software.
Without Amd wattman overclocking suite causing a conflict problem.

I just finished cleaning/reinstalling it, and if it still has the problem, I'll install the minimal one.

Yep. Same crap, I can't even get to 1100MHz (sometimes even at the stock speeds) without it crashing and locking the memory to 150MHz. Gonna wipe once again and then do the minimal installation.
