Ahha! Solved it. Seems like OpenCL gets broken when you go back to older drivers. You have to manually delete the OpenCL files and have the drivers you're installing reinstall them. Instructions in link below.

Hey guys, thanks for the replies. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I forgot to track the message and wrote my problem off. I had tried going to older drivers before with no luck. Just now I removed the drivers and used the driver clean before installing v12.3. However, I'm still getting...

"App version needs OpenCL but GPU doesn't support it"

along with...

"Milkyway@Home | [error] Missing coprocessor for task xyz; aborting"

I've got a HD4870, and have been receiving the OpenCL problem since the last Catalyst patch/release. We've put it down to AMD pulling support for OpenCL.

My understanding is that AMD made a major change to its software and the change is not helpful to us crunchers but is to gamers, their biggest market.


Unfortunately, I straddle both of those fences :) Guess I might need to rotate out of MW for a while to give both sides a chance to catch up on this.


AND to give US a chance to catch up to YOU!!!


Well true, I am awesome. But with a single machine crunching (and having produced nothing but computation errors lately), I'm no threat to the top 1000, let alone top 100 :)

Thanks for the replies. I finally find some more info on another thread. My card is a HD4870 with the most current drivers.

Matt: Is this something that will be patched in the next release?

Windows 7 - 64bit
v0.82 (ati14)

For the past couple of weeks my v0.82 (ati14) WUs have been receiving computation errors after 1-2 seconds. I've had a few hundred results like this. I have tried resetting the project, but the results continue.
