I´m using 7.0.18 with a pretty full cache for both, GPU (M@W) and CPU (several projects), by using this network preferences:

Minimum work buffer: 1.00 days
Max. additional work buffer: 0.01 days.

It runs pretty smooth. Try this... :)

Thanks! I had screwed up those exact settings (Basically reversed them). Works MUCHO better now! Thanks!

I tried your suggestion. Since cache was running low, I hit "Update". Here is what the event log said.

Funny, I've been praying for patience lately! I guess I should accept this as an answer to my prayers!

Forgive if this is in another thread (I did search!), but After running one update, there is no more updating! If I press teh Update button, it does, timer starts to update 60S later, but once the 2nd update occurs, no more automatic update!
I have tried shutting down, re-booting to no avail.
Any help GREATLY appreciated! I can't stay here and keep pressing update to get more work!

Was using BOINC manager 6.12.34, now 7.0.18 and same problem.

I looked through this thread for "Halfway through you will see Unwinder steer things and a series of tests being carried out. He wanted to verify a couple of things re the 7970."

But didn't find it. Am I missing something?

I have the exact same problem with wu's hanging on GPU only. This not an issue with wu's processed by the main CPU.

I have tried removing one Graphics card at a time thinking it was related to a hardware issue. The first remaining card seemed fine for 1 hour. Then when I rebooted (manually as shutdown does not) and replaced the card with the 2nd one, I was able to duplicate the problem after 30 minutes.

I hope this is not a duplicate thread (I did search FIRST:)). I have about 28 (and increasing) work units in various stages of completion. They say "Waiting to run (waiting for GPU memory). I have the 6xduo-core processor and (2) HD7900 gpus. any thoughts?

I tried to install the app that would cause my gpu(s) to run two work units, but with my ATI 7970's, they are still just one per. Any suggestions?

How in the heck do I get my GPU to do more than one work unit at a time?
