Hey guys, I've loaded up BOINC on a spare rig and I'm having trouble getting work. This is what the event log says:

It's a fresh install of Windows, and the specs are as follows:

Core 2 Quad Q6600 at stock
4 GB RAM
GeForce GTX 470 at stock
BOINC 7.6.9 (not installed as a service)
NVIDIA driver version 331.82

World Community Grid is fine, but GPUGrid wants nothing to do with it. Any ideas? I've already reattached the project, but no go.

I think probably early graphics driver was why you he could not get work and he has since updated to latest.

Betting Slip should take up betting, as he was quite correct :D I have used this exact driver before without an issue, I don't know why it misbehaved now.
