1) Message boards : Number crunching : Error while computing (Message 20370)
Posted 4797 days ago by Profile KPX
Yes, I am accessing a Win7 computer over internet from a Win7 computer. I am using LogMeIn and alternatively testing TeamViewer, as I am already aware of the Windows 7 Remote Desktop problem with Cuda. However, the units are still failing. Is there anything I need to do to disable some of the Windows services related to Remote Desktop, or is there anything to setup in LogMeIn or TeamViewer? Or do I need to forget both these easy programs and learn VNC (which is bloody complicated...)?

I started getting a new error on my remotely accessed GTX 570. Any idea what might be causing it or how to fix it?

You are right, the number of shaders is detected incorrectly. But what do you mean by correct driver? I have installed the latest one from the nvidia website... why is that not correct?

I have this "Error while computing" problem as well. In my case, it seems GPUGrid is not detecting my graphics card... I thought installing the latest nVidia driver would fix this, but it didn't. Any idea what's wrong? I am posting the failed WU details, and the computer details below that:

5) Message boards : Wish list : Medals? (Message 13275)
Posted 5268 days ago by Profile KPX
Several project have introduced medals (bronze, silver, gold, whatever else) for different levels of completed work. It is apparently just another level of fun on top of credits, but it seems crunchers like it.

Currently, it is used by the following projects (all of them are projects which run multiple sub-projects, like GPUGRID):
- Yoyo
- WCG
- PrimeGrid

Any plans to do it as well?
