ps_nbody sims will not stop when completed. Ultimately they crash my computer with a BSD.

Yes I've noticed the same today, I wondered why my CPU wasn't doing much and it seems this is the culprit, I did reboot earlier when I noticed another task doing the same and that seemed to clear it IIRC.
I haven't had the BSODs though, computer running fine otherwise, the GPU tasks are running as normal.

They work for alot of people but not everyone, you might try unchecking them in your settings so you don't get them anymore if they become too big of a problem.

Some of these NBody multithreaded (MT) jobs are very annoying and run for hours after getting to 100% until I notice and manually abort them.

How do I block getting these MT jobs but still allow all four cores to stay busy on single threaded jobs?

Thanks.
