Well, whatever you do is really up to you.

I have my own theory as to what may have gone wrong. Recently a major windows 10 update went out and caused grief for many boinc users as it updates the video drivers(without warning) and breaks opencl. So the fix is to reinstall the driver, and you just got through doing that. These automatic driver updates are really the only reason I'm not currently running windows 10.

But I'm not impressed with the speed of igpu. There are many ways to do this. You could only run four cpu cores, or you could run four cpu cores plus igpu, or you could free a core and run three cpu cores plus igpu, or you could just run igpu only. But the igpu isn't anywhere near as fast as a decent video card. Basically, you're getting what you paid for.

I'm NOT impressed with Intel GPUs, either. It's what came with the system; so, I decided to try to use it.

There's NO WAY my parents will put in an aftermarket GPU. They have NO use for it...

NOW I'M CONCERNED!!!

Since Upgrading the Driver; TWO Units have been marked Inconclusive:

1994507924

and

1994507918

Do I need to worry??? Should I roll back the Driver???

Too impatient to wait... I Suspended BOINC, Exited BOINC, reverted the Driver back to 10.18.15.4271 Rev.A 174.5 MB Dec 6, 2015; then relaunched BOINC.


TL

[EDIT:]

Found that it finished a third Unit on the "Newer" Driver... This may end up Inconclusive as well...

At least one thing about newer clients (newer than 7.6.15), they will now always give a reason why tasks are postponing. So, if all is well, there won't be any further 'task postponed {time-out} sec:' and then silence. (Crosses fingers).

I'm officially giving up on the Intel 530. I have set it to NNT, and am waiting for it to finish its queue.

I checked several of the completed units against the wingmen matched up with it. It seems that even with Lunatics, this thing crunches slower than CPUs crunching Stock Apps... :-(

The Intel GPUs just AREN'T up to being crunchers like the NVIDIAs and ATIs...

I ran into the same issue with an Astropulse v7.09 opencl_intel_gpu_102 unit running on an i7 6700K HD530 GPU. Driver Version is 10.18.15.4279

I followed the recommendations in this thread and lowered the -unroll to 8, 4 and even 2.

But after a few seconds the task is postponed again due to a 'ReadBuffer(gpu_power->power_range_ptr)' call failed (-5)

Good luck to you, ElGono. I gave up on Farragut and Suspended all BOINC activity there. I only have two REAL systems that crunch, now. (Prometheus with a GTX-750 TI SC, and Exeter with a GTX-760. Both cards are EVGA.)

You always use computer names like "Farragut", "Prometheus" (and maybe others - I don't remember)
We can't see them, we see only ID: 7301566 and ID: 7440554

Even if you tell me now which is which I will not remember them for the next your post.

Maybe use this way:
Farragut
Prometheus
... which is this "code" (you can Copy/Paste to Notepad and reuse):
[url=http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=7301566]Farragut[/url]
[url=http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=7440554]Prometheus[/url]

Or use Popchrom and make abbreviations (e.g. farr) which will expand to the full url= line

EVERY POST I make talking about my computers I ALWAYS put a GPU description or a CPU description depending on the issue at hand. SO YOU ARE MISTAKEN!!! :p

[EDIT]

If you two CAN'T read "Exeter, (GTX-760),..." in a given Post, that's YOUR problem, NOT mine. I type PLAIN CLEAR ENGLISH!!!

Read my previous posts in other Threads, you KNOW it is true!!! :p

I have TWO active crunchers; both using GPUs... So, since I DON'T have a farm like many others here, I call my computers by name, and will continue to do so; ALSO including their GPU description. Since my computers ARE NOT hidden, it should be SIMPLE to find which system is being discussed.

Farragut, (HD530), was an experiment, and it FAILED!!! Had it succeeded, it would have made a third cruncher for me.

Leave out the dot/period. Put a "space" at the beginning of the command.

" -unroll 8 -ffa_block 2048 -ffa_block_fetch 1024" <--- Leave out the quotes.

Well this is not new!

I reported this issue here for the devs but couldnt get any apropriate real guidance so i gave up.

http://lunatics.kwsn.info/index.php/topic,1763.msg59314.html#msg59314

This is to the developer board and i have the exact same issue as you TimeLord04. (Non approved members cannot reach this post though)

In my case i had a Intel 5775C with Iris Pro 6200 iGPU and i had issues with running Astropulse work but not MB7 work.

Tried without any parameters at all and reduced values! Nothing worked so i gave up. Now i've exchanged the 5775c to a 6700K instead so i dont need to tweak the rig as its processor is more mobile in its design that it is a desktop. (And wont be using its GPU until i hear that it seems to work again :) )

Very good IPC though due to the 128MB eDRAM on the chip.

Good luck all!
