I downgrade drivers to 11.9 and ran the 1.02 app_info.xml from Arkayn. I'm still getting a gpu crash within about 10sec of task start. All tasks failing.

Moving to a different project, really makes me sad though, only like 3 days from 5M. :(

I think I fixed it.

Maximum CPU % for graphics
Frequency (in Hz) that should try to complete individual work chunks. Higher numbers may run slower but will provide a more responsive system. Lower may be faster but more laggy.

Both of those were set to a "non number" or something. Setting them back to a real number got me 24 tasks!

Seems the NVIDIA and ATI is mixed up...

I actually wish all projects used optimized apps. Or that BOINC had the built in ability to pass different apps to different CPU types.

It seems such a waste to have a brand new SSE4 machine that isn't even using SSE2 because the project's apps have to remain backwards compatible with old processors.

Maybe I'm missing something, probably since I just switched over to this project yesterday, but on all 10 machines I can see in my boincview all have at least 10 WUs waiting in cache, some up to 19 WUs. Are you guys sure there is still an 8 unit max? I'm not seeing it.
