If the dmp. file doesn't have the answer the only other things I can think of to try is Freeplay off, different driver versions, or setting your OC videocard to stock clock speeds.

After work tonight I will try the card on its other bios setting. If that works then obviously a card issue which will make me cranky. Lol.
Just rename the folder to anything?  Ie “setting2”?

That's fine. The game will create a new settings folder. Then you can run the game and see if it still crashes.

 I think I have the issue solved. First thank you to everyone for the help.

 I tried the slower bios on the card, still was having issues. Decided to start fresh and use DDU and clean out the drivers. Reinstalled the newest driver, set everything up stock settings, set up my eyefinity display group, no change. Wiped the drivers again with DDU, and let windows update find a driver this time. Everything was stable. Checked the driver version, and it is an older one from about 6 months ago. searched the net for one from around that time with the adrenalin software. Found 19.2.2 release and installed. Everything was nice and stable. Set up my eyefinity display group and that is when everything goes all wonky ( highly technical term! lol). Disable the display group...back to solid platform. So this is an AMD graphics issue, and makes me not terribly pleased as I chose AMD specifically for the built in multi monitor support.  I knew I should have gone with an nvidia card and a matrox triple head set up!!!

You don't need matrox triple head to use nvidia, they have triple monitor support same as AMD.

AMD triple monitors usually work with AH. If it's a driver issue you may see a fix in a new driver or a different old one.

Does the VC have two power connectors?

Have you tried freesync off?

Have you tried one monitor?

vsync made no difference, yes I have both power connectors on the vc plugged in. Unplugging the other two monitors seems to make a difference.

Can you turn freesync off on the monitors or VC when you use all three? I'm guessing freesync might just work with one monitor, not all three at once.

It is definitely multi monitors....I can't seem to find a setting that works to keep it stable. It just doesnt like it, and sends the computer into fits when AH has been opened...it is fine the rest of the time... :mad:  Thanks for all the help

Is there a setting to turn freesync off on the monitor menus or in the video card driver?
