I just noticed that this machine http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=2555220 has an "error while computing" for all GPU tasks since the outage.

Not sure how to find out what is wrong.

setiathome_CUDA: No CUDA devices found
setiathome_CUDA: Found 0 CUDA device(s):
setiathome_CUDA: CUDA Device 1 specified, checking...
Device cannot be used
SETI@home NOT using CUDA, falling back on host CPU processing

Try a reboot of that system. You probably have a task stuck in memory or something else bothering the videocard. A reboot should clear that (just exiting BOINC and restarting it won't clear any problems with the GPU).

Give it time Bernie, we're all getting that. Too many people fighting over too few WUs! :-)

Hallo,

All GPU works crash!

I’ have restarting computer and also Seti project in Bonic application, but it doesn't solve my problem. No changes has been made in computer, just in last days all GPU units immediately they start give error:

SETI@home Computation for task 06ja10ad.29591.11524.4.10.128_0 finished
SETI@home Output file 06ja10ad.29591.11524.4.10.128_0_0 for task 06ja10ad.29591.11524.4.10.128_0 absent

Does it need a few dust bunnies cleaned out of it?

Cheers.

At first i thought your GPU was not cable of doing CUDA. But NVIDIA says Yes. :D

Looks like a Driver Crash...

Is your GPU overheating?

Helli


any tools to check whether the gpu is overheating?

I believe you have too little memory on your 8400 GS. 243 MB is really pushing the limits I think.

Maybe it can work if you disable all graphics enhancements in your Windows 7, like AERO which takes lots of graphics memory.


i already set the visual effect to minimum~

GPU-Z can show you several Values (and the Temp) on the Sensor Tab.

You may want to try falling back to an older driver. I believe some of the 190.xx series used less of your memory but since my memory isn't all that great anymore I'll let someone else recommend one.

i was getting success with 197.xx drivers but that was with XP/2003 OS on a GTX 8600/256meg card

Win 7 has a new driver model WDM that can gobble up memory even with aero turned off

although i though this was fixed for 200 series nvidia drivers so may be not

I would try MSI Afterburner as a way to monitor you cards temp etc as you can apply a fan profile by temp - i.e. speed it up as it gets hotter - assuming its also a heat problem

post back some temps with and without running SETI

I'd try changing the x32f app and dll's for the Stock 6.08 app and 2.3 Cuda dll's and see if if that combination works,

it's no use rolling back to 190.xx drivers, the Minimum driver version is 197.13+ for x32f,
once you're got the stock app installed, then you could try 190.xx drivers

i don't recall anyone trying the x32f app on a 8400 GS during testing, an Ion yes, but that only seemed to have done 5 valid tasks,
further tweaking of the app may be required before it'll run on a 8400 GS.

Go point is was using the 2.3 cuda

Can he use the win98me installer to get these or is there somewhere else he can download the old v0.36 installer?

Cant see the old installer on the Lunatics site

Tim,
They took the old 0.36 installer down because too many people with Fermi cards were using it and were turning in bad work. I think someone does have the old installer up on their site but I can't remember who. I'm sure they will post as soon as they see this thread. I thought the new installer had a check box where you could use the older DLLs though I can't swear to that.

New installer only have the new dlls.

I've put the 0.36 installer on my site 64bit / 32bit
