They process only for a few seconds. This seems to be a new error to me. It might be specific to my environment. The normal work units without the Orbit Fitting option seem to run fine. I am using 2 CPUs per work unit. I turned off Orbit Fitting in my Project > Account > MilkyWay@Home preferences for now. ID: 77006 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Don't worry it is not related to your machine. I usually check other computers via credit statistics whether they have the same problem. That seems to be the case. So this is a general problem.

Thank you @eiernacken1983 and @xii5ku. It seems the bad tasks are less of a problem now. I can live with a 10% or less error rate, so I enabled the Orbit tasks.
