I've got a 512 MB 4850, running 1 unit at a time, catalyst 9.9, Windows 7 x64, app 20b, seems to be running fine, no lockups that I've seen. Is this card capable of running 2 WU's at a time without incident? Yes, mine do. ID: 32777 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I'd like to contribute by running these, but with most of my computers I can't get the app to run without occasional VPU-Recoveries. As you probably know this causes the ATI App to hang up, using 100% of CPU and the time counter on the task/wu increases but progress is halted -> Total waste of nerves, electricity, time etc. CP/Gipsel you did the app also for Collatz. With Collatz all my computers run flawlessy (one up over month in a row without a single problem) but MW is very picky on OS/Driver combinations and for some like me it does simply not work reliably for longer periods of time. I HATE to keep watching my computers all the time and restart BOINC Mgr with jammed ATI MW tasks and for this reason I am not crunching MW. Any change of getting the reliability of the Collatz App over to MW? Any change of improving the code to prevent these driver errors? Any chance of somehow automatically notice jammed tasks and kill these? ID: 33988 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Unfortunately no as the 5700 series does not support double precision. It looks like you are keeping it warm on Collatz though. ID: 34529 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
