Well I decided to jump in. Trying to earn that next molecule. Anyone else want to join in? To run the GPU app, you'll need a Nvidia video card.

This is one I can't help with, go Scole! :bounce:

Have they upgraded the driver requirements or something? I've not had GPUGrid work for weeks.

Dunno. 337.88 is the oldest I'm running though. Have a GTX 460 running on Win 8.1 with the 344.11 driver though. Are other GPU projects running on them? If not, check the Boinc log and make sure it sees them at start up.

I'm the same as Mega. Whatever they have changed GPUGrid makes my systems unstable as hell. Can't complete a unit without multiple crashes and then restarts.

All my cards are working fine on other projects.
All I ever get from GPUGrid are messages saying that there is no work available.
I'll have a fiddle about tonight.

I've only gotten CUDA 6.0 and 6.5 apps. Try upgrading to the 337.88 driver. Maybe your drivers don't support that version of CUDA apps.

Only other thing I can find out there is a GTX 580 has a Compute Capability of 2.0, but GTX 460 is 2.1. Can't imagine that minor difference would matter, but not sure what difference is between 2.0 and 2.1

Here ya go...http://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=3894 and http://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=3733

Short story, they dropped CUDA 4.2 and want everyone on a driver that supports CUDA 6.0 or higher. Maybe they've stopped sending out work for 5.5 too? They do have CUDA 6.0 and 6.5 apps though. CUDA 6.0 requires driver 334.21 (or higher). CUDA 6.5 requires 344.11 (or higher).

15 hours to go and we're...I'm holding on to 9th. If we had another cruncher or two we might be able to take 8th... 8)

I put Caro on with the 3 nVidia cards. It crashed after a few hours. Sorry, no help from here Once I have everything else sorted I will try and figure out why before the next one.

BAH! Project has been having issues for couple days and left my systems without work for a bit. Got inside the long WU window so I switched to the short WUs but can't get any to download.

TSBT finished 9th of 14

Individual efforts...
scole of TSBT 6th
Megacruncher TSBT 148th

I think they're working on an AMD GPU app. There's WUs on the server and posts on the message forum about people processing test units. Maybe our AMD GPU team mates can join next time. FYI...for NVIDIA GPUs, you'll need to have at the 337.88 or higher driver installed to run the NVIDIA apps.

I tested 16 AMD GPU WUs and they errored out in under 3 seconds each

I know it's not the first time they've tried to get AMD apps working. Maybe they'll get it sorted out this time.
