Thanks ... will give it try later in the week. I did get 1 of the GTX-260's and HD 5850's running for a short test. the HD 5770 error'ed out but i think it has .net 4?

Great. More than likely the problem is the driver. I can't tell though because your computers are hidden.Originally Posted by Beyond
They are visible now, I think it is a corrupt driver install. I noticed this morning when attempting to get it to run again tiny orange dots started popping up on the screen, they go away as soon as I shut boinc down. ... will try to download and re-install this evening.

Beware the dark horse !
Oh yeah sieve faster i want some well sieved pairs to LLR test
I munching on them as fast as I can.
The driver is the correct one but it might be a corrupt install. I believe from your description it may be overheating. Download and run GPU-Z and check your temps. It could be as simple as blowing out the heatsink, a failing fan or a power problem.
I got one of the HD 4850's running with the new 10-12 driver released today w/o the need for the app_info file on Win7_64, now if it will work on XP_64 I'm in business. I will try one of the HD 5770's with this driver too and report back.
/edit/ On the 5770 I at first thought it was another failure ... 1st 3 wu's errored after only 3 or 4 seconds, but the fourth one is still running. checked the failed wu's and all have multiple failures.
Next question, how are cpu's like on this project, worth the effort?

Ya how long are CPU WU's
What are CPU points worth
Very long. 12 to 28 hours on a q6600. Flate rate credit of 2312 per WU for the PPS seive WUs. The problem is that only WUs downloaded and returned during the challenge count. That means that only work downloaded after 18:00 utc 18 Dec. (13:00 eastern time) will count. It does not help if you have a large cache. I've set mine to connect every 0 days and maintain additional work for 0 days.
We're at #31 for total credit and closing rapidly on Boinc@heidelberg.
....... Aaaaaand as they're rounding the final turn, coming into the home stretch towards the finish line, it's.............
61 - Bigred
213 - Bok
285 - Outlnder
310 - Chuck
447 - Jason
505 - Carlos

... Putting "Free-DC" Stables ahead by a nose in 28th position.

Anyone doing the next challenge: Marie-Sophie Germain, April 1-3?
I'll be running my Q6600 on it for the 48 hr duration.
No GPU client for this, so the GTX 460s will keep working on PPS Sieve...
I'll put some on it.
Yeah, not bad at all!
I pointed a few nodes here but not getting any work ?
I guess I will have to look at the settings
Yeah, not bad at all!
I'm maxed out. But with just a bit more help, I think Free-DC could beat Ars Technica!
wow. this is sad.
I'm pushing 5 out every 11 hours (average).... I know it's not much, but it sure doesn't help when they sit in 'pending credit'.
Suggestions? (like break out the Opteron 250's & turn up the A/C ? )
PS: at least we are still ahead of ARS... now to take Navy down... true?
