Keep getting the message that the above WU's are not available. Is this correct or have I done something wrong? According to the server status page there are plenty of wu. Are you sure its not asking for cpu work? We don't have any here (well there is an app being beta tested I believe). You should only get work for nvidia gpu's. According to computer info you have a 9800GT which would take around half to a whole day to do one wu. The recommended cards are of the G200 chip variety (ie GTX2xx series (the GTS250 is not). Also the recommended BOINC version is 6.10.3 (although 6.4.7 will still work). BOINC blog ID: 13178 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Also the recommended BOINC version is 6.10.3 (although 6.4.7 will still work). That advice is getting quite elderly, and that version is getting hard to find. It was only relevant while there was nothing better. I think that v6.10.13 has proved itself enough to be a better choice, and it's more easily available through the download - all versions page.

For what it is worth ... I agree ... I have been running 6.10.13 on two systems since it came out just about and have no major issues (other than my stock ones which encompass most BOINC versions ...)

But the project is still recommending 6.10.3 at this point. I would think GPUgrid may want to take advantage of the backoff times for ATI and CPU that was introduced with 6.10.5 (and revised in 6.10.6). BOINC blog ID: 13186 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Thanks for the reply. I'll see what's going on. New Gpu on order. Dave I hope its not a GTX260. The GPUgrid science app has problems on those cards in particular. They are looking at creating a special app that will run on the GTX260's only because of this problem. BOINC blog ID: 13187 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
