I have "If no work for selected applications is available, accept work from other applications?" ticked so I should get ANY tasks if they are available :(

On the prefs_edit.php page there is a server warning being printed though:
"Warning: Creating default object from empty value in /boinc/milkyway/html/project/project_specific_prefs.inc on line 660".

I am running a fresh, 1.5 month old, install of windows 10 (fresh not upgrade) with the latest AMD drivers. I cannot see any reason why there would be issues, and why they would seem to be only occurring with MW :(

I have updated to the most recent stable AMD drivers as linked below:

For a few weeks now I have needed some extra heating in my house again (that time of year again) so I have joined my render machine up to some projects. I have not been able to get any tasks from MW while the others are working fine.

Here is my log output:

Any idea about mine?
It is working fine on einstein@home but not on milkyway :'(

Is there any way to opt out of testing in the future?

I am having an issue that seems to be caused by the new teststars WU's. Everytime my machine gets a load of them and they error my boinc client does not request any new work for a long time and just idles there. Ive got force work fetching on in the cc_config.xml but that doesnt seem to help.

Apparently there was an issue with the parameters file. The news says that those WU's are still working themselves out of the system.

Im using boinc 7.4.12 x64
Most if not all of the TestStars ATI GPU WU's are showing up as 5GF in boinc and immediately error upon execution. This is happening for both de_modfit_16TestStars_1s_132_wrap_1 and ps_modfit_16TestStars_1s_132_wrap_1 type workunits.

No resistors are missing to my knowledge, I have only opened the card to repaste it and I have been quite careful. In terms of the capacitors yes, the card is fairly old so it could be a capacitor on its way out :-\

Ive had this issue before after installing different driver versions. From what I understand it has something to do with you going from a newer driver to an older drver. I used the program driver sweeper to completely remove all my graphics drivers so I could reinstall and it fixed the problem.

Ive got 12 fans in the case, 6 of which are 70+ CFM high performance fans (One of which is the case side fan which blows a small tornado directly onto the cards, its my 79CFM fan).

As you can see the GPU Core itself is very cool (<60c == <140f) (Recommended operating temps are allowed to go upto 90c from what ive read).

According to the sensors the temperature inside the case is around 35 c.

From this toms hardware post it seems that my cooling is above average:

I could only find the latest version for windows 8.1.
Im going to guess they didnt even make the older drivers for 8.1?

Just to clarify the temperatures on all of the other cores VRM's are nearly identical to each other in their respective cores (Being located so close to the cores they are around that same temperature). None of the other VRM's make it to 80 c at stock clocks. Most of them are around 60 c. It is just these two in the first core of my second card that are acting up.

I also get this issue on my two 5970's. I am using the latest drivers on my windows 8.1 install.

I read around about it possibly being a PSU issue so Ive rebalanced the 12v rails as per the PSU datasheet and each card now has up to 50A from the 12v rail and supposedly an additional 6.25A from the PCIE Bus (Total 56.25A x 12 = 675 per card which is more than double the TDP of 294w). Issue is still persisting.

I have done a little bit more experimentation and when I underclock and undervolt it to the point where its VDDC Current is the same as the other cards the VRM temperatures are fairly similar, being only about 12 degrees c higher. This may suggest that the issue is both with these two VRM's as the other VRM maintains a normal temperature. This does not explain why this core is using so much current though so I am still quite unsure where the problem may be originating.
