Hey there :)

Recently, BOINC software has been updated to the 7.0.25 stable version. However, WUs aren't coming in ever since I updated it. This has previously happened to me when using a beta 7.x version.

11/04/2012 10:32:33 | Milkyway@Home | Tasks for CPU are available, but your preferences are set to not accept them


Admins, please update the server settings to accept requests from this 7.0.25 BOINC build.

Me too-

Since updating to 7.0.25, BOINC has been unable to request new GPU Separation work units

I was able to create an App_Info file as workaround (using milkyway_separation_1.02_windows_x86_64__opencl_amd_ati)

Just a hunch, it appears to be an issue with how Milkyway is interpreting the new OpenCL code that BOINC 7 is passing back to the projects.


(I have the opposite issue with POEM, it only works on BOINC 7.x and not on BOINC 6.x)

Hello,

I have exactly the same problem as Cornel using an ATi 4890. Do you think it's specific to 48XX cards?

So it's solved.

Perhaps thread could be deleted?

Those ATI cards should run OK, Double Precision is necessary, so check?!

After cleaning out dust and [i]Trojans
and reïnstall WINDOWS 7 x64; Service Pack 1, I installed
BOINC 7.0.25 (x64) on a separate disk partition, atleast the DATA part, Program
executables are on the BOOT disk. B.t.w. the CPU is an I7-2600, HT=ON .
Using 2 EAH5870 GPU's, (by the 'looks'on an output file, you can notice, it also will run on nVIDIA* cards). About 65 seconds per WU per GPU. CPU isn't used
for other purposes and core 0 has a constant load of ! 50% (Thead 0, as HT is on!)

*(OpenCL, not CUDA).
Runs nice..............
