Have been unable to run GPUGRID consistently. I used to run it for a fair amount of time but then my system suddenly began to have power off events. I run a number of other GPU intensive projects without issue but can't seem to run GPUGRID. I have the following applications settings: ACEMD short runs (2-3 hours on fastest card): yes ACEMD long runs (8-12 hours on fastest GPU): yes ACEMD Beta: no Python Runtime: yes Any advice on getting to the bottom of this would be appreciated. Windows 10 Pro 64Bit [2] Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5690 @ 3.47GHz [2] NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Black, Driver: 381.65 OpenCL: 1.2

I would detach from GPUGrid and then re-attach. There might be something corrupted in BOINC due to the power outages. |

Sounds like a power supply issue. You might try stress-testing your system, using tools like: [for CPU]: - Prime95 - Intel LINPACK dlls put into LinX [for GPU]: - Heaven - Valley - PrimeGrid Might need to test CPU stress alongside GPU stress, ie: run multiple programs at once. |

Sounds like a power supply issue. I would like to add furmark for GPU testing. Before you do any stress test: power off your PC, unplug the power cord, then disconnect all power connectors inside your PC (especially the CPU, 24-pin MB, PCI-e GPU connectors) and check for any burn or melting marks (especially on the 12V (yellow cable) pins of the 24-pin MB connector). If there's none, reconnect them and the power cord, and then do the stress test. |

Checked every cable and connection. Suspected PSU even though the 1100 watt system ran Furmark without issue. Added supplementary PSU, no joy. Finally picked up a used Supermicro box w/1280 watt PSU, moved my major components over and problem solved. New problem after, major increase in electricity but happily crunching away. Thanks for the advice.
