I found that I have zero milkiway credits for 2 weeks. Both my computers are on default configuration - which has worked before - and consistently producing errors like this: <core_client_version>6.10.58</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <message> Função incorrecta. (0x1) - exit code 1 (0x1) </message> <stderr_txt> <search_application> milkywayathome_client separation 0.62 Windows x86 double CAL++ </search_application> Failed to get CAL device attributes: Parameter passed in is invalid (CAL_RESULT_INVALID_PARAMETER) Error getting device information: Parameter passed in is invalid (CAL_RESULT_INVALID_PARAMETER) Failed to get CAL info: Parameter passed in is invalid (CAL_RESULT_INVALID_PARAMETER) Failed to setup CAL 09:49:43 (6516): called boinc_finish </stderr_txt> ]]> Any clues? Thanks -- |

Your drivers are way out of date, need to update them. Currently one machine runs with 1.4.737, the other with 1.4.556. The latest are 1.4.1332 (you get those with a download of Catalyst V11.3. Go to AMD drivers for your machines and download the one at the top (Catalyst Software Suite), dont download the one lower down, you need the APP set with 0.62 Once thats done you *should* be ok, but there maybe other things happening - for now download and update, and take it from there. It would also be a good idea to update Windows 7 to Service Pack 1, not essential at all for the MW errors, but will make life easier for you going forward. Regards Zy |

Thanks, the new Catalyst package appears to have solved the problem. I believe this happened because the 0.62 application is using a newer version of the graphic library - without reporting it to the user. Cheers -- |

I'm seeing errors where I never saw them before... You cranked the cards back up to 876/825. Chances are thats a tad too high for your current setup, and you are on the edge. Lots of variables at play, not least cooling and whether or not voltage is increased (comes a point where voltage has to be increased to support higher GPU clocks, but thats set against the penalties of higher voltage). Without changing anything else, bring it down to (say) 850/825, reduce by 5 each step after that until its stable. Then have a think if you really need memory at 825 at other apps, because MW doesnt need it that high (memory will not be the error, the latter is GPU clock speed when set against how the rest of the machine is setup).
