Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : WUs failling when computer is looked

Hello recently my WUs are failing when I lock my computer. It seems to be happening just with GPUgrid as far as I can tell. My GPU card is Quadro K5000. Has anyone an Idea what the problem could be and what solution would work (except not lock the PC)? | |

Do you use Windows Remote Desktop while your computer is locked? | |

make sure you don't ever go to the user selection screen, never use "switch users". I always disable fast user switching on my win7 machines. windows vista/7 switches to the microsoft default video driver at the user selection screen and that kills anything running on the gpu. | |

I do not use the remote desktop. But i do have windows 7 64bit and I will try to disable the fast user switching. | |

I think this is probably driver related or a really bad setup. | |

You definitely seem to have a software problem. I'd try using a WHQL driver rather than some beta. | |

Hello ExtraTerrestrial Apes but the 320.27 driver is a WHQL driver. | |

Ah sorry, it's a special release for Quadros, hence the unusual number but still WHQL. Well.. I don't know, try something newer or older, with clean install? | |
