i3-3220-xp64 There was some discussion on the mailing list about the excluded GPUs and how they are being handled. 7.0.38 has a bit of a work-around but it had some windows installer issues. What are your cache settings, tasks selected (in project prefs on the web site) and are you using an app_info? Running GPUgrid is best on a very low cache setting. It will give 2 work units per GPU at a maximum. ____________ BOINC blog | |

got a task. lowered cache to 1 day min / 1 day max additional. I was at 8 days min cache trying to get enough WCG GPU tasks in order not to run dry there, since they are way over estimated in the time to complete. | |

I was at 8 days min cache trying to get enough WCG GPU tasks in order not to run dry there, since they are way over estimated in the time to complete. If you had 8 days before that's probably why you didn't get any work, GPUgrid has a 7day deadline. Even with your current settings you might struggle until your BOINC learns what the actual times are for each project. I run my GPUgrid machines with a 0.01/0.1 cache settings using "network always available" which means they download a WU when they've just about finished the current one and report almost straight after the upload completes. This helps with the long WU which can run for up to 12 hours each depending on which ones you get. ____________ BOINC blog | |

You can only do that thru the cache settings, as far as I know, but can do it on a pc by pc basis if you use the Boinc Manager which is down by the clock. Be sure to click ok when you are done tweaking or the settings won't be saved. | |

I use a 0.1/0.1 or 0.05/0.1 cache normally. Only reason for higher cache on this machine is I have 2 other GPUs working on WCG and I was running dry. I tried 0.01 cache before, but BOINC manager would run dry when one finished and waiting to download the next. | |

I am currently having a problem where BOINC requests tasks from GPUGrid.Net, but none are given. At first I thought it might be because my reported results from some previous work had a few errors, but according to my results (via http://www.gpugrid.net/results.php?userid=8048 )... the last reported error was 6 Nov 2012 | 13:22:26 UTC... which was exactly 1 week ago. | |

Turn on sched_op_debug. What displays under application details for your host? (On the website, select the machine, click the details link). I presume you don't have a silly cache size like further up in this message thread. Anything more than 7 days isn't going to work here. ____________ BOINC blog | |

The issue resolved itself (which is a good thing, but also bad, because I won't be able to see what the sched_op_debug messages were.) I'll remember to do that next time, if the issue shows up again. | |
