Excuse me! Some problems with Mozilla Browser.

65C is hardly an unreasonable operating temperature for a CPU.

Thanks for your responses, Matt & Jacob.

OK. I downloaded another WU and have been running for 2+ hours, with Core Temp running for most of that. Before the WU started, CPU temp was 40C and CPU fan was 2700rpm. The fan is now at 3500rpm and you can see the CPU temps here:



A bit worried about that 75C max...

Am I OK to continue, with the Thermal Radar temp well into the red??

Earlier today I noticed that, with four cores allocated to MJHARVEYs, my Thermal Radar temp had dropped from a steady 68C to 55C. Quite a surprise!!

I gave BOINC two more cores to play with (= six) and my temp is a steady 65C.

I did nothing to bring about this change....

PLEASE fix the problem that allows GPUGrid to send CPU WUs even though I explicitly stated in the settings to not do so.

What are your exact settings?

mdrun-463-901-sse-32 causes a soft system freeze occassionally when exiting active state into sleeping state i.e. screensaver off to on.

By soft system freeze, I mean that the start bar/menu (I do use start8, but it's confirmed to occur without this active as well), all parts of it are locked. Windows-R can bring up the Run menu, and I can use cmd and taskkill mdrun and the start menu itself will return to normalcy, however the bar will continue to be unresponsive. Killing explorer.exe to reset the start bar will result in a hard freeze requiring reboot. During the soft freeze, alt-tab and other windows will be VERY slow to respond until mdrun is killed, afterwards all other windows work fine, but the start bar is unusable and will force a reboot of the system.

I've found through further testing, that boincmgr is also wholly unresponsive during this as well. There doesn't seem to be a consistent cause, I've had it go a few days between doing this, and other times it happens literally every 3-5 minutes (which my screensaver is set for 3 minutes of idle).

There is nothing in the error logs at all, they are 0KB.

Any assistance or ideas in resolving this would be appreciated.

My system:
Windows 8.1 64-bit
i7 4790K @ stock
ASRock Z97-Extreme4
EVGA GTX 970 SC ACX @ stock 344.60 drivers
2x8GB HyperX Fury DDR3-1866 @ stock

I posted this in the other CPU WU thread, but it seems to have not been seen.

I fixed it by setting my PC's location to "School" and setting "Molecular Dynamics on CPU: no" in the school preferences.
