1) Message boards : Number crunching : GPU Requirements [OLD] (Message 43172) Posted 26 Oct 2010 by Gerald_F. Carroll Post: Further to my problem. I was getting a message for all my work units that the cpu was overloaded and so it would halt and keep trying again. Reloaded my OS again as i had another process error, but turns probably not related to my problem as i see the same thing with the previous version of boinc that i reverted to. (was screenreaderd not responding) Then i went backwards from boinc 6.10.58 back to 6.10.21 which i had been using. I do not get the CPU error with all the work units and they are running normal. I had not tried down loading 6.10.58, just reloading the original copy. I think i will hold off updating until they bring out something official that's newer than 6.10.58 many thanks for your help Gerry

I will leave it on for a few weeks. Does not create a problem for me. My other work units will just have more time for themselves.

Carroll Post: I get a message now that i cannot get more work units from Milkyway as my system is not supported. i run a MAC, power PC G4 1.6 Ghz and 1 MB memory. The graphics card is a Nvida GEOFORCE2 MX This started a few days ago. Does this mean i am out of luck with future work units? I want to know so i can remove Milkwway and dedicate it's space to some other application. Right now i run SETI, Einstien and World Community work units. At one time i did Rosetta but it's requirement went beyond my systems capabilities gfcisme
