Calling from the dark side

Thanks for the news Toxic, sorry to here BOINC is giving you hassle.
I going to try the latest nVidia drivers later :eek:

Had a bad batch of cuda units crashing the display driver :confused:

A reboot fixed it :confused:

Giving up on the cpu units a low points for the crunching time - if I could only get the Astropulse.

Trying to chew through a load of Rosetta that d/l/ when I suspended SETI.

Coreliser has work available now

One of my rigs is running an AMD gpus and one is running Nvidia gpus. The AMD rig has work and is getting work as I speak, but the Nvidia one shows this in the log:

I'm not getting CPU units for my i7, but am getting GPU units for it. I've had that for a few days now. No ideas anyone?

No idea but I'm having the same problm, re-installed boinc last night and it was only picking up GPU units

Biffa · 19 Jul 2012 at 16:12

You checked your settings over at berkeley?

Boycie · 20 Jul 2012 at 16:12

Yeah settings havent changed, my other crunchers have CPU WU's but I guess thats because they have 10 days worth of work downloaded, wonder if could it be down to a bad lunatics install?

FluffySheep · 20 Jul 2012 at 17:18

Mine has startd to get WUs again - not played with any settings or anything so I assume a glitch Berkley side but it's a mystery!

About 2 months ago I got 100k, I never actually posted the tiffy:

Currently at 166k so less than 100k to go until the next milestone of a quarter million.

EDIT: Still a bit tired, no idea why I posted it here, so I'll go repost it in the latest news thread
