I reset the SETI app and still get errors when trying to download. I don't mind helping out with spare CPU time, but this is now cutting into other time. I'm abandoning this system. Good luck to all who stay.

This log might help someone:

This is probably a misconfigured firewall, either a personal firewall or a firewall at your ISP. What error do you get if you take your browser here.

If you didn't get an error, how long is the file you downloaded. If it's less than 10kB, load it into notepad. Does it contain an error message?

Info about your computer: "Maximum daily WU quota per CPU 1/day"
Strange enough... Had You manually tweaked DCF (<duration_correction_factor>)? Or You are crunching other projects along with S@H?

Personally I am crunching without any serious problems...

I also am having trouble getting CUDA version to work.

It always insists on downloading 6.03

I tried the 6.05 test link suggested above:

http://boinc2.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah/download_fanout/setiathome_6.05_windows_intelx86__cuda.exe

and that downloads fine (1,352 KB) and is not an error message.

I have tried uninstall, delete BOINC directories, and reinstall. Same result.

Is there a way to manually download the 6.05 and force it to be used?

I am running:
GeForce 8800 GTX, 768 MB
ForceWare version 180.48

Hopefully you can offer some solution.

Hi,

Don't know if you've tried it or not, but there is a modified CUDA app that should also be able to do the 6.03 tasks you have using the CUDA app.

This message has the links to the app, the update for it, as well as instructions on installing it and the cc_config.xml file you'll need to use all the cores.
Because it uses an app info file it should be able to force the CUDA app to be used.

Might be worth a try.

Also you should make sure you have your SETI@home preferences set to use the GPU by setting "Use Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) if available" to yes.

My prefs are set to enable GPU usage.

CudaZ reports compute capability is 1.0, I am downloading the latest 181.20 drivers to try to get 1.1.

The modified app looked like a lot of fiddling around, more than I wanted to do anyway.

I was hoping there was some quick setting or fix.

I just left things as they were, and at some point it got 608 and started doing CUDA on its own. It is also doing some astropulse 500.

Your CC 1.0 is a reference to the G80 chip used by your '8800 GTX' (and the 8800 Ultra, and 8800 GTS 320/640 mb versions). To my knowledge, that cannot be changed. To get to CC 1.1, you would have to buy another GPU,other than the one's listed above, which are not CC 1.1.

You have a good card and it will work on Folding, Seti (doh) and RC5...But not on GPUgrid, as it requires a GPU with CC 1.1.....
