I see you have a Dual-GPU configuration, so I assume this happens because of the ULPS feature. To fix this, you will need to disable ULPS.

thanks for the info but here it said:
This issue has been solved in v3.62 by not accessing a secondary ATI GPU in case it's turned off by the ULPS feature.
However, there still exists a marginal chance when this patch might not work properly and a freeze can occur.

So is there a way to get v3.62? i haven't see any old version around.

Actually that means "v3.62 and later", so all subsequent versions implement this patch.
Unfortunately on some machines it seems this patch worked, but on some others it didn't. Yours seems to belong to the 2nd group.
So there are only two possible ways how to solve it - either by disabling ULPS or I could implement a switch in HWiNFO which would disable accessing 2nd GPU entirely (so no details or monitoring of this GPU would be available).
