You need to be running the latest Gipsel app under the anonymous platform mechanism and using the supplied app_info.xml.
In this file, edit <cmdline></cmdline> to read

<cmdline>w1.3</cmdline>

for each time it occurs. Make sure you stop and restart BOINC.

Read the readme.txt file that came with the package as many times as you need to understand the various options and what they do. You need to read it carefully from end to end. There are other useful options as well.


thanks for this. As I don't have a win7 yet, I'll have to manage with XP32

I tried the 9.8 no CCC, and the <cmdline>w1.3</cmdline> part.

gpuZ tells me the card is loaded at 80%

It is stable as long as I do not touch anything, open no window, launch no program...

Exactly, that's the way it worked on ALL my XP32 boxes. I doubt if the w1.3 makes any difference in stability but it does slow down the processing. If you can get your hands on a copy of Win 7 (either 32 or 64) it will go better. Also Collatz runs much better on XP than MW does.
