See this WU:

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=136093903

Happens on most of the "??-11-1s-..."-WUs.

The "??-11-2s-...."-WUs run fine.

I've been getting stacks of errored WUs today too, eg
http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=136113867
whose crime appears to be 'unable to create buffer'.
Cheers,

I have also had a bunch of invalid WUs on my 1 ATI MW dedicated GPU.

Looking at the stats this morning they suddenly appeared and then seemed to disappear around 09.30 BST this morning.

I suspect a large batch of duff WUs were issued, as the problem doesn't seem to have reoccurred.

Go away, I was asleep

I have stopped having errors on my ATI cards but every one of the 11_1s wus errors on my Nvidia cards - all other wus work just fine.

I was getting crashed WUs on both of my ATI machines yesterday afternoon. Went so far as moving one of the cards to a different box with Win 7 64bit instead of XP 32bit. Made no difference with the WUs. Thought it must be my boxes since there were no posts about the problem. Of course as usual Collatz ran fine...

On my two i7 boxes, each, with two 295's and one 260 all the *11_1s_* Wu's error.
The 4850 is running everything it gets,however.

The only way I can keep the i7's operational is to go though and abort the '1s' units as they download. Pretty much a full time job.

Good day for Seti.

Pitty MW can't just assign the '1s'units to ATI boxes only.

OK breaks over,back to aborting WU's.

I just reinstalled the cat 9.9, copied and rename the 3 files and all is well again. I think windows update got me on Patch Tuesday
