I just got the new cuda version installed on my pc and i have noticed all the work is erroring out. Here is one of the tasks. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I just got the new cuda version installed

Which is which version? 180.48? 180.60? Other?

Please look at this thread for the information I'd like and why.

---

driver version 176.26. That is the latest one dell has. 32bit XP.

---

A link to the error he had.

He's using driver version 176.26 which by the way he should update here

and he's running Microsoft Windows XP
Professional x86 Editon, Service Pack 3, (05.01.2600.00)

---

Could you try to update to the latest version that Nvidia has?
Here's a direct link, they're the 179.28 drivers.

(beat to it by Byron, but I was simultaneously keeping the devs up-to-date)

---

so far the dell direct driver is the only one that seems to work/install. every other one I try I get "The NVIDIA setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. setup will now exit."

---

Just try a manual install.
The *.exe which you downloaded is a self extracting archive with autorun function for setup.exe including in this archiv. Maybe you decompress it by right-clicking -> extract to ... You should have a application installed like 7-zip (maybe included windows-zip works too).
After extracting try to manual update your drivers by going to device manager -> grafic card -> right-click choose properties -> driver -> driver update.
Here choose 'driver from computer' -> navigate there where you have decompressed the nvidia package.

This was on the right track. I ended up getting a modded inf file from laptopvideo2go.com that would let me update my driver to a newer version. I wish i didn't have to do that but dell doesn't seem to think a video driver from aug is old. Thanks for your help!

I'm getting the same computation errors, but add in a display driver crash every 15-20 work units errored out. It was working fine until 2 days ago, then it started having this problem. After it started doing this, I upgraded to the latest development version of BOINC and updated the nvidia drivers and still have the same problem. Also, at around 12 seconds CPU time, my whole display freezes for around 5-10 seconds before the unit ticks up 1 more second, then says computation error. I have Windows XP 32 bit.
