Hi,

Last few days....I've been getting computation errors and MW@Home tasks are timed at a minute and 57 seconds. My GPU is not overclocked but the specs are in the link below.

A sample task error is in the link below. Can someone help me as to the cause and fix?

My systems are normally very stable on MW however in the last day I've had 68 errors and 11 invalids while successfully completing over 5000 WUs. I checked the wingman results for all the tasks producing errors and they also had errors. None of these WUs were successfully completed and all were cancelled because of too many errors. Check you wingman results on your tasks. If they also had problems it is just a batch of bad WUs.

Hey JHMarshall,

I put up a set of runs that started erroring quickly so I took them down. Turns out there is a bug in the way the server was setting up the command line for these runs so I will be fixing that probably today.

Jake,

Are you sure you've cleared them out (or perhaps more were started)?

I'm still getting quite a few (sometimes 2/3rds of the tasks sent) that are the 'fixed angle' jobs (over 24 hours later). All still crashing.

Hey Thunder,

Yea I put new ones up today. Apparently they had a bad parameter file. Took those down again.
