So I've had my R9 380 for about a year now, without problems... I used to play rust a lot with no problems in the past, but now when I've tried it twice, both times I encountered a weird problem.
My both screens go blank randomly after some playtime. Then I hear the sound that windows makes when you plug in an USB stick. Then I hear it again and both my screens turn back on. Rust is still running, but it's minimized and I can't get it back on -> I have to kill it from the task manager.
The second time this happened, I tried checking Radeon settings. The window opened up, but it was totally white and then suddenly my both screens turned black and said "no signal". I still heard my friends in mumble, but couldn't see anything. I tried pressing ctrl+alt+delete, which caused the sound to disappear, and my PC was totally stuck.
Might be a driver issue, but I have the latest drivers... Could it be a hardware issue also? I still have warranty left so I thought it would be good to solve the issue now. Any ideas how to debug this? I have Windows 10 home.
Sounds like your display driver is crashing.
Trying updating your graphics card drivers in the Device Manager.
You can also confirm this by checking your crash dumps. Display driver crashes usually make a mini dump.

The drivers are the newest Crimson edition drivers. I actually found [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/playrust/comments/4d2itf/rust_keeps_crashing_my_driver/]this[/url] thread a bit after posting this thread... Seems like the [b]newer[/b] drivers cause problems :/ I guess I have to downgrade
Use the Device manager to roll back and see if that helps
Don't update drivers unless it actually promises to increase performance in games that you play AMD aren't the best there was a driver that made people's fan not function...

That downgraded the driver to 2015 december version, which one of the users suggested rolling back to. Will try playing now, thanks!
