I only selected the MW app but now I also get modfit units...

The scheduler was fine with me. My issue is with the quota. At 60 units with 2 GPUs, I run out in about 30 minutes at each little hiccup. A day worth of units no matter what the configuration (CPU, GPU) would be nice.

A grand total of 7 units here. 3 minutes of processing and a 50-minute wait for the next batch.

Not sure if it is the same problem I have. I get about 60 units and when I return them, I don't get any new ones and then I run out of units. So I ended up created a job in Windows Task Scheduler which send an update command every 5 minutes. Since then, the only time I ran out of units was due to the fact that none were available.

#3 is working fine for me. Separation Runs 79_DR8_rev_3 run almost 40% longer than separation_21_2s_sscon_1 for a return 5% lower over the same period.

Yes it works. But I had no problem with 1.02 before Friday. My card supports OpenCL.

I am running only MW on this computer and LHC on another. I have pretty much every possible setup through the Preferences fetaure but I finally elected to use a solution seen somewhere else on this forum. I setup a scheduled batch job which executes an update every now and then. Completed units are sent back to MW and new units are downloaded.

Got it working. I ran the executable manually and got a more meaningful message saying opencl.dll could not be found. From another forum I read the dll was to be found in System32 and SysWOW64. It was missing in System23.

Now I have another issue which is that the manager does not return completed work and does not request any either. I have to manually force it. Activity rules are to run at all time, on GPU at all time and with the internet connection available at all time. I tried to uninstall Boinc, clean up all traces and re-install. Still does not fetch by itself. I wonder if it is because I only want to run on the GPU?

I just installed a used Sapphire Toxic HD 4870 to run MilkyWay and the executable is crashing (Windows popup message). I run Vista 64-bits on AMD Phenom X4. Catalyst version is 12.4.
