title says it all.
I ditched 7 because it kept crashing under it.
Went to Vista, STILL CRASHING!
This is infuriating;.

Two WinXP64/ATI-8.12 units work flawless. One Win7/ATI-9.5 unit gets fought with daily. This weekend, there will be three WinXP64/ATI-8.12 units.

    wow having all kinds of problems here... not requesting work, then not doing work when it is there.


    boinc 6.6.36
    I have copied the 3 aticacl.dll files, renamed them and put them back in the win32 folder.
    I have downloaded and copied the .19f files to the boinc milkyway data folder.
    I currently have the 3 renamed aticalc.dll files in that milkyway folder as well.

    Right now when they run,it is attempting to run every single MW unit listed at once. The timer moves on all of them, though only 3 are actually running.

    Am I doing anything wrong or what?
    This is getting old here.

    That is pretty much normal, a lot of times I get up to 10 units "running" but only 3 are actually processing.

    I often get 12 "running" but only 1 processing.

    Boinc 6.6+ plays havok with requesting work, hence why I'm back to 6.4.7 w/ 8.12.

    I think I am definitely getting rid of vista, far too slow. burning a copy of 7 before they included the death bomb and not going to update it.

    Ok so I got rid of Vista (Again) to go to 7, build 7232.
    Installed catl 9.6 cause it is really the only one I can find on the damned website...

    Guess what? driver crashes every 20-45 seconds.

    9.5 still constantly crashed under Vista.

    I'm not sure if it will help, but try looking here.
    One of my fellow knights was having some issues with Windows 7 and CP got him going.

    I have uninstalled 9.6 and rolled back to 9.4 and so far no crashes...
    Well see if it stays that way.
    I certainly do not care for how much more laggy this 9.4 is compared to what it was before... but it at least seems to be working.
