Seems to be working fine here for me. Returning and getting new units fine.
It was a bit dodgy last week but it sorted itself out.

Are you getting cpu or gpu units? i dont want cpu ones as when i tried some cpu ones on prime grid my cpu was running too hot was hitting 70c and the top of my case by my top extractor fan was too very hot to touch!

I've just come home and noticed that the Seti units seemed to have dried up at the moment, neither my work machine or home machine are getting/have any at the moment.

I think the SETI server spends an awfull lot of time being maintained but I've just got CPU units from it no bother at all. At least once you have them their shelf life is pretty long. Keep trying and read your messages to see whats up if it doesn't work.

It might be worth detaching then reattaching to the project. I find that helps with a few projects if they dry up unexpectedly (obviously make sure the project has work first)

The only other thing I can think of is to check your settings to make sure you haven't accidently set it to not accept any more work.

When the SETI site comes back up again check the applications section for CUDA versions with which they are compatible.
Current CUDA for Windows 7 from NVIDIA is 4.0 (270.81) for 64-bit and 32-bit versions but I haven't found any projects with applications that run with this version. Primegrid seems to use 2.3 (190.38 ) for Windows on both it's Cuda apps and I have to use an optimised app for Collatz to run with Cuda 3.2 drivers on OS X. None of these work with Cuda 4.0 drivers... at least on OS X...
Just in case... check the BOINC log to see if it has recognised the cuda drivers and versions at start up...
