Thanks Fred! Runs great with _g. Won't run with _z. Program failed to start on slot: 0 Russ You need to go to the config.xml and change to: <config> <data> <exe> Lunatics_x41z_win32_cuda42.exe </exe> </data> </config> <!-- Make sure you open this file in a simple text editor, like notepad.exe only. This file has to be stored in ascii format. --> Then go to the data directory (where you put the setiperformance program) and copy the exe and dll of the x41z to that directory. Then it will run OK (i test here in 7 diferent hosts/GPUs configurations all running with x41z) |

Juan, Do you rememeber to put the right dll and exe (the ones from x41z) on the setiperformance directory? not in the boinc directory itself. |

Why would _g work fine and _z not? Its that the name of the executable file?, or have you renamed it to include the _perf part to the file name? |

Why would _g work fine and _z not? Russ Check the name of the file, it must match with your windows version, the name i give is for XP 32 Only, i belive you have Win 7 64, so the name and dll must be different. Sorry i don´t have any Win 7 64 here to help. Thanks you have no problem with cuban cigars... hehehehe |

Russ There isn't a 64bit x41g or x41z app, just the 32bit variants, I couldn't get it to work on my GTX460 with x41z app eithier, until i removed the x41g app and dll's, then it did work: Starting automatic test: (lunatics_x41g_win32_cuda32_perf.exe) Claggy |

Finally got both the GTX 670 and Gtx 470 working added cc_config file to C:\ProgramData\BOINC\cc_Config <cc_config> <options> <use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus> </options> </cc_config> just copy the one in C:\ProgramData\BOINC\projects\setiathome.berkeley.edu and paste to C:\ProgramData\BOINC\cc_Config Will see what results i get Gtx 670 reportsw 4 tasks is better but will need to the Gtx 470 to 2 or 3 Thanks for the great app |

Why would _g work fine and _z not? My point is that if _g perf.exe will run just fine on my machine running _z, why will not _z perf.exe work after I change the xml to _z etc. _x41z, cudart32_42_9.dll and cufft32_42_9.dll are in the same directory. Still no likey? Proud member of the half bill club! |

Why would _g work fine and _z not? The app name should be Lunatics_x41z_win32_cuda42.exe, also make certain that only the wu, the app and the dll files are in that directory. Anything else will cause it to fail. |

I'm sure I'm just doing something dumb, but I'm too tired to see it. During the 1 work-unit per card test, GPU-Z showed that the cards never went into "Boost." I'll do more here and on a pair of reference 560Ti cards when I have had some rest. |

I´m not shure but i think i see in some forum some special build for the 295 with x41z, maybe you could ask Jason about that. There's a Cuda 2.3 special on the way through final pre-Alpha preparations & testing, that is x41z specifically built for pre-Fermi Systems only (esp. 295's). That and a 2.2 version exists for certain gaming laptops that do not allow driver upgrades with standard nvidia release drivers, and are stuck way back at really ancient drivers (shame system manufacturers, shame). There are also technical reasons that supporting such an old driver version has become necessary, in particular that nVidia's CUFFT library has gotten steadily slower for older gen cards over time... I reported that, demonstrated it, nothing happened. They want feedback on Cuda 5 preview, so I'm going to mention that I'll likely be forced to make my own FFT library to replace it (which I was planning to complete & reintroduce the freaky powerspectrum & some other technologies anyway) but beleive it's fair enough they should know why I may be forced to dump one of their technologies in favour of something that will not receive a performance degradation over time. In shiorter words: on those old cards, on old drivers, 2.3 blows the doors off any later revision... but of course is not suitable for any Fermi or Kepler GPU containing host. On the 680 Vs 590 comparison I saw a while back. Not going to be a fair comparison via time alone, since it's one GPU using about a third or even a quarter of the power, so overall more efficient. Do the comparison with a 690 ;) Jason "Living by the wisdom of computer science doesn't sound so bad after all.
