Amd driver stops working then the game crashes on windows 7. On windows 10 the entire system locks up and must be powercycled.

It happens sometimes around certain areas around the game. However I can trigger the problem 100% of the time by doing the following:

-Set game to dx11
-Set shaders to High (game settings reference)
-Hop in a no-skin golem
-Be in Osmon II - Moon 1 station (maybe any minmatar station as well?)

Drivers bug out, game crashes (win7) or system locksup (win10).

tested rigs:
intel i5 760
msi p55 cd53 mobo
8gb (4x2gb) ddr3 @ 1333
430w corsair cx
AMD r9 260 (card #1)
windows7

intel i5 6600k
asus z170-p
8gb (2x4gb) ddr4 @ 3000
600w corsair cx
AMD r9 260 (card #2)
windows 10


Tested drivers from 16.3 to current 16.8.1 (obviously not every single version)
Tried complete wipes of eve (+appdata), and a complete reformat on the windows10 machine.
Tested everything on potato mode except for shaders set to high

It just does not work, i am forced to run the game on DX9 but that is not ideal. The game is dropping dx9 support in a future update! Need help i want to see dirt on my ships pls

solved on sisi

no real way to test the random events that trigger this problem outside of station though
