And the BOINC Client is still crashing on Vista 64 bit... :(

Exactly, same crash as the 6.3.8 :(

Reported again to Berkeley.

Thanks Gianni!

On multiple GPUs and SLI.

CUDA REQUIRES that they are not in SLI mode. If the client sees two GPUs that should be fine.

I'm waiting until the new Windows app is released before I give it a try.
As if the new windows app brings the speed to near where Linux is then it be better to wait.

That's assuming It can actually do the workinuits without crashing :(

Down with the Kredit Kops!!!

Boinc 6.3.9 is not working for me on Windows XP x64 either.
6.3.8 workes fine, however 6.3.9 just sits at "Connecting to Localhost"
And if I try to start the Boinc Service it just gives me an error about it "Terminating abnormally"

A new BOINC version which fixes the Client crashes on Win 64 and CUDA detection should be out later today or tomorrow!

Are you able to confirm that the new 6.3.10 has fixed the problem?

Thanks,

No, unfortunately not...
The BOINC Client isn't crashing anymore, but I still have problems with the coprocessor detection on the Vista 64bit host with 177.84 nvidia drivers on a GTX260 card with BOINC 6.3.10 Windows x86_64.

BOINC shows only
25.08.2008 19:51:11||CUDA devices found
25.08.2008 19:51:11||Coprocessor: Device Emulation (CPU) (1)
25.08.2008 19:51:11||Version change (6.2.18 -> 6.3.10)

I wait for the Linux version which will support multi GPU.

But, is there someone who know when we can expected this version?

The new application 6.3.10 for linux is ready to download.

I can see that you are crunching on both GPUs, the GTX260 and GTX280, but are you doing it at the same time? Do you have two WUs running at once?

Member Feuerkater from our team is able to crunch on two 8800GT in parallel, so basically it works :) He is using 6.3.10 on Vista 64bit.

Yes both running at the same time.

For me, it's just on XP x64, and on Vista x64, Boinc see only one GPU.
Maybe i have to use the same GPU.

Boinc see only one GPU.
Maybe i have to use the same GPU.

If you have multiple GPUs, you'll need to disable SLI mode in order to use them both for crunching.

I have run GPUGrid using two GPU's simultaneously with Vista 32-bit, with no problem. I had previously got them set-up while running the Folding@home Nvidia GPU2 client, and had to manually flip a chip on my motherboard to enable both cards to run simultaneously.

On Vista I have to have two monitors hooked up for both cards to run, otherwise Vista does not recognize the second video card. XP I understand is more forgiving.
