1) Message boards : Number crunching : Not enough time to complete by deadline. (Message 11621)
Posted 5373 days ago by KAMCOBILL
Hi,

I have tried several WUs and the same happens on deadline. Here's last WU http://www.gpugrid.net/result.php?resultid=945503

Since this card is listed color netural, I've been testing it. It seems to be able to run the WUs, but not in time. Is there a problem making the deadline longer (e.g. 7 days instead of 5)?

I haven't had any problems with the duration on 9600GT. Just the 8500GT.

Thanks

Bill


There is no way you are going to complete in time with that card. I have just completed a WU with a 8600GT twice as many shaders and cores, plus it's 3 times faster than a 8500GT and it's over clocked and it took over 55hrs of processing time and 3 days and 6 hours in computer time because it can't run when I am at the computer. In addition, this computer is on 24/7


I know. That's what I said. It took 5 1/2 days. WUs only have 5 day deadline. It finished but was too late by 10 hours.

Ht TomaszPawel,

Thanks, been running all the GPU projects since they came out with WUs. This is the only projects having trouble making deadline. The reason I was wonder if the deadline could be changed was if I run for 5 days and it is resent back out then it could take up to 10 days to return the result for that WU. Seven is less than 10. I'm trying 1 more WU before I detach.

Thanks Again

Bill

Thanks. I found it and got it installed. It's still terring up Explorer.exe though and doesn't look like it'll make the deadline. I'll try to find a way to tune it somehow. :D Thanks for all the help.

I couldn't find a way to get a newer driver.At least with the link to Nvida. When I selected WinXP, that's the driver it gave me. Where can I get a newer driver?

I disabled the indexing and everythig that I could. It's still tearing up explorer. I jsut suspended all other WUs. Now, WU is 50% and Explorer.exe is 50%. Hopefully, It'll make the deadline. :D Thanks a lot. I'll have to check out a better GeForce.

I'm have problems with WUs while running. I'm running on WinXP Pro 2 core host. While WU is running alone, it takes up 50% and Explorer.exe takes up 50%. When runnng with a WU from another project, It take 25% and Other WUs 25% and Explorer 50%. When WU was received it had 11 hours to complete, but it is running slow and looks like it'll take over 100 hours. How can I stop Explorer.exe from hogging up all the processing?

I downloaded 178_08 for WinXP. That's the driver it gave me to download.

Thanks

Bill

Edited. It is happening with 6.3.14 and 6.3.17 both
