For the past several days almost all of my GPUGrid WUs have been failing, usually after only a few seconds of CPU time. Earlier I was successfully crunching WUs at a fast pace, and sometimes a WU will still succeed. For example, one of the long run WUs completed successfully on May 10. WUs on other GPU-enabled projects, such as PrimeGrid, are completing successfully.

My settings should allow you to see the details of the computer and my tasks.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You're using "bad" drivers. If you have the Sleep function in Windows set to x minutes, it needs to be switched to Never, or you need to update to 301.24 BETA, or downgrade to 285.xx

IF YOU TURN SLEEP OFF, THE PROBLEM SHOULD BE FIXED. It's under power management settings.
