Can anyone help with this error? Looks like it appeared after a reboot of the computer.

You caught BOINC right when it was in the process of writing out the results for each task at your shutdown. So the tasks didn't get updated correctly. This is a flaw in BOINC that has been acknowledged for some time. It is best to look in the Manager if any task is right at the point of completion and look for its successful upload to the servers before shutting down BOINC. This avoids the problem you documented.

Thanks Keith. The restart was not of my making....don't know why it rebooted.

The impossible autocorr power is a math problem with the card. It is either too far overclocked.... or too hot ... or both. Reduce the clock speeds and/or increase the fan speed profile. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |

Or another thought, the video driver got corrupted or Windows installation of the video card got corrupted in the unscheduled reboot. I would completely exit BOINC and shut down the computer completely, then bring the system back up. If still an issue, exit BOINC and reinstall the video driver again. Check for proper PCIE power connections on the cards also. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |

I had a very similar problem 18 months ago and that turned out being a slow hard drive failure (it died about a week later). Cheers. |

I will check the fans out tomorrow on the video cards. I had already reinstalled the video drivers and rebooted the computer. I do not overclock.

I will do a mirror copy of the drive and then switch the current one out and see how that works out tomorrow. Thanks SETI@home classic workunits 4,019 SETI@home classic CPU time 34,348 hours |

Unfortunately, the overclocks aren't necessarily in the users control. The infamous GTX 560 Ti was factory overclocked and created and still creates an inordinate amount of invalids or inconclusives. I still chuckle when I look at some of my paired wingmen and discover the task was run on a 560 Ti. I had one of those myself at one time and am embarrassed to admit I ran it without realizing that out of the box, it could not compute accurately without some serious downclocking on my part.

You know you might be correct. The MB has autotuning and I have just turned that off to see what happens. (I do have a SSD replacement drive on its way for tomorrow-I know that makes a difference on my laptop (but I only run CPU on it). I will let you know how it works out.
