The newest AMD Beta driver seems to have fixed the issue 
I got the crash problem also and in win7 and win10 alike for the last three driver versions incl beta.
Dx 11 mode crashes when im in play mode havent experecied it in normal editing.
I didnt manage to start the editor with dx12 that just gives a black screen and driver crash
but i did manage to start and running without issues yet in opengl.
But i have poor performance in opengl. i get 120 fps in roller ball demo in dx11 in editor view and in playmode but only around 50 to 70 in opengl. Is this to be expected? I havent checked the performance with a released game and i havent checked dx11 in a released ue4 game.
i have to take back that i havent any problems outside playmodeā¦
its the viewport in general when used.
as for the opengl ā¦ when starting with -opengl its ok when starting with opengl4 it starts but i have a purple viewport and gameplay and have to switch to unlit. performance seems to be as bad as with -opengl.
Have you tried the beta driver which was released yesterday?
yes its the same ;(
this time i even had to hard reset my machine.
i had a driver crash in shadow of mordor too so it loks like its not only ue4.
I dont had any crashes in unity btw,
im losing hope and i fear i have to get rid of that card it looks like amd doesent get this done and they had enough time by now.
Same issue here r9 380 crashes all the time at random periods, nothing from above mentioned solution helps, im really stuck hereā¦
I just upgraded to the 15.11 beta driver and the crashing has stopped for me. Iām running a R9 390
I use a r9 380 and I solved the crush by changing the Shadows quality Epic to low , the rest you can leave it to epic they work ok.
To change the quality of the Shadows go to toolbar, Settings/Engine Scabalibity Settings/Shadows
Hope it helps!
If anyone is having this problem still I found a fix for it. I got my r9 380 about 2 months ago and I kept getting crash to no signal until I found this fix. Everything has been working perfect for a week now. So I thought I would share this for others in need. How to prevent AMD R9 380 from CRASHING!!! - YouTube I hope it helps!

Hey man, What have you done to solve this ? It has been almost 2 years and I assumed you have solved this somehow. can you help me on this ?
I have R9 285 and experiencing same issues that you had when you write this problem. Frequent Crashes. But sometimes it happens 20-25 mins later sometimes just after i hit play. Are there any solutions ?
Hey Finwefeanor,
didnāt do anything other than wait it out !
[ after posting about it here and on AMD forums ]
I mainly worked in Unreal Engine before changing job in september of 2015. Between Sept 2015 and June 2017, i barely had time to open the editor to patch it. Last June i finally had a week off and decided to resume my work.
The editor crashed twice in the first half hourā¦
My video driver were not at the latest, i think they dated back from april or may 2017.
But after getting the latest driver at the time [ end of june 2017 ], i could work 2 full days of 12 hours without any crash. On the exact same hardware and install of windows from the time i posted this in 2015.
Iām pretty sure i havenāt had the time to update the video drivers since then, and here is my current version:
Version ParamĆØtres Radeon - 2017.0612.1651.28496
Version du package du pilote - 17.10.3211.1011-170612a-315159E-CrimsonReLive

Version du pilote audio AMD - 10.0.1.1
Vulkanā¢ Driver Version - 1.5.0

so anything more recent than this should do it.
