Anyone having scheduling issues on 6.10.1?

I updated my 6.10.0 machines to it last night across the board and by this morning all my machines are idle on all projects. I'm just getting not requesting tasks.

Had to detach and re-attach to get work flowing.

I've done it about 4 times and gone back to Vista 64 with 9.4 and now I cannot get that working either.

This is sooooo annoying, my Vista stopped booting and hanging so I end up spending days thanks go out to M$.

Did it work for you?

I am having issues with Windows 7 RC and Catalyst 9.5 and wondered if yours was okay.

I have just installed Catalyst 9.5 and it's not working for me at all. Computation Error on 1 unit at a time.

Going back to try 9.4 and see what happens as that was all working just fine for me.

Just a warning ICE. If you have a dedicated server in the UK, please check the rules of hosting. I myself ran into an issue with a dedicated host server allowing the download of 'files' which was against the Terms of Service, even though it was open source java code I wrote. Being the owner seemed to not give me any rights to host it lol.

Just thought you may want to check the small print in case they sudden pull it without reason as happened to my confusion when they did it to me.

And again I add +1 to thanks for hosting.

Indeed an awesome job, i cannot praise the work enough.

And ATI should probably be the 1st to thank you too lol.

9.4 drivers are out and working nicely for me (using the normal driver expand and copy instructions from the readme). Was apprehensive as the 4850x2 has hardly been mainstream on the drivers.

Talking bang for buck I had 4870 go down and for the same money now I replaced it with a 4850x2. Shame it will now mean I have 2 GPU's without work instead of the 1, (well 5 really as none of the cards are getting much).

Now it's true my GTX-295s never want for units. My ATI's are hardly ever full.

/sigh

If I read the GPU announcement correctly, it will require Gipsel (or another intrepid person) to create the new App for the ATI's as Milkyway are only creating the CUDA Version?

Hope Gipsel hasn't sold his ATI's for nVidia or were in trouble lol

The second monitor (or the 1st one again from the VGA via DVI adapter to the second card) worked a treat. Many Thanks :)

I have 2 4870's in an I7. I believe at the moment that only 1 of them is running WU's or as previously mentioned there running at 50%. Running without Crossfire means I return the same units/time.

A) Is there any way to see if 2 GPU's are doing the work or just 1.
B) How do I get both to funtion at full speed if it is possible/
