AMD BC-160/V520 shows MALFUNCTION in HiveOS and will not mine

I have removed and reinstalled the drivers multiple times on this card using this post:

Guide to update amd drivers

AMD driver package and AMD drivers builtin in Hive OS not the same things Builtins AMD driver is mix of 3 things AMD linux kernel module (latest from AMD repository) AMD OpenCL libs (for best hashrate) AMD GPU firmware (from latest AMD drivers package)

No luck. dkms status does not show errors.
Card shows malfunction still when I reboot.
When I run amdmeminfo, it will show a long string of errors.
I have removed OC’s, applied autofan, and also running this as the only card in an Octominer X12 Xtreme case.

It also shows this when running SRB miner: Error CL_UNKNOWN_ERROR when getting number of CL open platforms.

I have 2 cards that do this. These are fanless cards. I have 3 blower BC-160’s that work, and 3 fanless BC-160’s that work in this case.

When a faulty card is installed it will tend to give me an endless boot string until it finally boots.

if you have multiple of the same model cards, and some cards are working fine and some are not it is not going to be a driver issue

Update: I ended up put a clean HiveOS image on and got the Error CL_UNKNOWN_ERROR to go away.

2 of the cards appear to be faulty. They’re recognized, but when the drivers load on boot, there is a long string of errors that pops up. Running amdmeminfo gives the same. These cards are likely smoked.
