My iMac has been getting a lot of computation errors—“process exited with code 193 (0xc1, -63)”—running MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v0.84, just a few seconds into each task, but it seems to be doing fine with MilkyWay@Home v1.01 (and various other projects). Any suggestions as to the cause or a fix?

<bump>

process exited with code 193 (0xc1, -63)

193 = invalid event

and a task log shows:

SIGBUS: bus error

Crashed executable name: milkyway_nbody_0.84_i686-apple-darwin
Machine type Intel 80486 (32-bit executable)
System version: Macintosh OS 10.4.11 build 8S2167
Thu May 31 11:17:21 2012

That's of any help?

Nothing seems to have changed for this system since the update: N-Body tasks all still failing within a few seconds of starting; MilkyWay tasks all completing fine.

Passing it on.

I've been getting alot of computation errors also recently (as in 10 out of 10 error) with the n-body milkyway @ home when I used to get hardly any as well.
