Hello to all I finaly decide to ask help about a critical problem I have on 2 different computers using the ASUS ENGTS450 nvidia card . Both computers are crashing after a time when the boinc is running this happen when the craphics are displayed on screen . The screen after a time completely freeze and I am locked no way to correctly stop the computer . It happen also frequently that the computer reboot him self and then give vga problem . This happen on two differents computer and I am sure my hardware is perfectly working since I removed bonc from one of the computer it is no longer crashing . Do anyone have any solution regarding this problem ? I am sure to not be alone with this problem I installed the last vga drivers this not resolved the issue . Thx Oliver |

Both computers are crashing after a time when the boinc is running this happen when the craphics are displayed on screen . You shouldn't run the screensaver/project graphics at the same time as the GPU is used to work on a task. So, either turn the screensaver off or disable the sending of GPU tasks on the SETI@home preferences page. Gruß, Gundolf Computer sind nicht alles im Leben.

BOINC does cause some extra CPU usage, which means you have to keep up with cleaning out the dust bunnies every couple of months. BOINC WIKI |
