Posted 8 May 2013 by john3760 Post: Thanks Claggy, It still seems odd that I took 3 secs, my wingman 2 and a bit secs and it gave 603 points :/ While I'm on , In an earlier post in this thread, I posted an ( I will use the term loosely ) App Info printout. If anybody is considering copying and pasting it , don't , it won't work sorry. It was my feeble attempt at cobbling together an app info.Luckily SETI was down for maintenance an no WUs were harmed . |

Posted 8 May 2013 by john3760 Post: Well everything seems to be running ok,I will adjust the openCL Config files in due course. One Astropulse though, finished in 3 seconds ( the wingman a bit less !!! ) and validated with a SETI TOASTER score of 600+ . Can that be right,or have two invalids become the right result ???

Posted 7 May 2013 by john3760 Post: Thanks again! , I've done a bit more reading since my last attempt :) I will deffinately get there in the end,it might just take a couple of goes. I'm going with CUDA50 , I will redo the APP INFO tonight when I get in,and reinstall the DLLs. Hopefully I'll run out of work tomorrow then I'll give it a go. And thanks Fred!! John3760 |

Posted 7 May 2013 by john3760 Post: Thanks, I think its the 104 chip so you are right.The 660 used a different chip(106). The 660ti seems to be a cut down version of the 670/680. I will redo the app info again when I get back from work, and put the cuda50 app back in my programme data folder. I still have a day or two left in my cache,so Ive get plenty of time to do it. thanks again john3760 |

Posted 6 May 2013 by john3760 Post: Thanks again William Well you managed to kill your cache very spectacularly :) Looking back,I think I downloaded the wrong app for my card (NV660 ti). I tried the 50 app(Kepler) instead of the 42(Fermi),and compounded the problem using my "unadvanced user" abilities,and inability to read instructions properly. I am currently running my cache down,so that i dont trash another couple of hundred WUs,before I try again. All of the relevant dlls etc are in my programme data file,but as I said before,I have pressed the "no new tasks" button and I am waiting until all my current WUs are complete before I unleash my APP INFO file. I copied and pasted together the .aistub files that came with each opt app,as I couldnt write one from scratch,and ended up with this :- <app_info> <app> <name>astropulse_v6</name> </app> <file_info>

I have also added -unroll 10 -ffa_block 6144 -ffa_block_fetch 1536 -hp to the ap_cmdline_win_x86_SSE2_OpenCL_NV.txt file,which I got from another thread. It will probably be Wednesday when I try again. I can always revert back to 41b and my current APP INFO if it feels like my brain is about to explode :) Any advice would be appreciated, thanks john3760 EDIT I think I may have repeated some of the 41zc bit in the app info! |

The subject of UFOs
(Message 1263872)
Posted 23 Jul 2012 by john3760 Post: I remember when I was younger ,( a long time ago ) I visited my local swimming pool. I was wearing goggles because of the chlorine in the water,and when I looked down to the floor of the pool I saw a USO. This Unidentified Submerged Object was witnessed by quite a few people, including the Mayor of our town who happened to be swimming that day. None of us were under the influence of drink or drugs when we saw this USO. It deffinately existed (I don't think it was mass hysteria, but I remember a feeling of slight concern). It was cigar shaped ( similar to some UFOs) but seemed too small to be piloted,even by ant sized aliens, so I presume it was a drone sent from a water world just checking us out. It was also cigar coloured,not the silvery coloured type we hear about all the time. As it just "appeared from nowhere"' I can only presume it came through a Wormhole of some type using propulsion technology way above our understanding. I remember a call over the swimming pool's PA system and two men wearing uniforms appeared from nowhere and retrieved this USO using a large stick with a net on the end of it. I presume because of their swift appearance and the ability to have the right equipment necessary for this unexpected occurrence that they worked for some secret government agency who deal exclusively with USOs and had information from the Prime Minister and the leaders of our armed forces,as to when these USO sightings would occur,and the exact time and location. It is deffinately a cover up of some sort,as this USO sighting (which was witnessed by 60 or more people ,including our mayor and a librarian and Brian the vicar who I know wouldn't lye about anything)never made the news in any form whatsoever. There was a complete media ban,possibly enforced by MI5 ( and 6 ), but everybody there that day knew they had seen something "not of this world". john3760 Edit: 20 years later I found out that all my presumptions were just a load of shit. |
