I also have been told that my NVidia 560 Ti errors are adversely affecting the system. Since I don't know how to stop receiving work for my GPU I guess I will have to bail out of SETI.

I have a simliar GPU problem. Both my machine and the card are new. Out of over 1900 tasks, 987 are Validation Inconclusive and only 42 are Valid. I have no idea what to do about this. If I could turn off GPU usage I could just let 4 processors run tasks.

Since I received a notice about overloading the servers, I will discontinue the particiaption of this machine until I hear something.

Otherwise the GPU works fine, operating two screens flawlessly.

I, too, have this problem. 40% of my pending are "validation inconclusive." I have 214 "invalids' and only 81 "valid" with 6 "errors." I am heating my office with this computer. Is my equipment not suitable for SETI's needs? I bought a GTX 560 Ti because it was highly ranked by SETI.

Since I installed my GTX 560 Ti I no longer receive work for my other processors. How can I fix this? I have four processors doing nothing while my adpater is heating up the room.

I have one GPU and it overheats. How can I tell BOINC to use NO GPU's?

I do not quite understand what is (or is not) going on, but my tasks have been in "download" status for the second day now. Since I can no longer process Seti tasks I am now doing other work.

I stopped WU's for my GPU because of heat. Now I have a new fan and would like to start again. How can I force SETI to send some work for the GPU? I have set preferences appropriately but only get work for the CPU's.
10) Questions and Answers : GPU applications : Too much CUDA (Message 1007283)

I only have one GPU but I get dozens of jobs for it and very few for my other processors. How can I change this balance?

Why wouldn't my credit for SETI@home appear under My Account? All other applications do.
