I tried detaching and I tried switching to the WHQL Driver. The wu's will run and complete in between the freezes. I have run the ATI app before with no errors. Could the new type of wu's be causing this? There looks to be a nice flow of wu's and I can't run them. D'oh.

Win 7 64bit, ATI 4830, Milkyway_0.19f_ATI Win64, BOINC 6.6.36 64bit You might want to limit the number of WU's to n1 or n2 - Have you read the readme file that was supplied with the ATI app? There are some suggestions there you might want to try as well. . ID: 25552 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I ended up moving the 4830 to an old retired Pent D comp for just Milkyway. Thanks for the help. ID: 25748 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
