I know its VLAR,
i know i should abort them before starting,
i know i use a mod-version,
but maybe the devs want to have a look at the debugging message.

Raistmer is sending them to the developers already and working together with them to get this fixed, no worries about that.

It's known bug with VLAR. You should abort such tasks until new version of CUDA MB will arrive.
Doing such tasks on current version can (and sometimes will) lead to BSoD, driver restart and invalid processing of other tasks until whole OS will be rebooted.
Much better to abort them before they do harm to system.

Hi there,

I've got several Cuda errors. Follows the required details.

Dell Laptop XPS M1530
Windows XP SP3 32 Bit
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT - Driver version 6.14.11.7431

List of the last few WU with errors:

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=1118896544

Questions from the development group and my answers.

Q -- State if you overclock the GPU and if so by how much?
A -- No I did not. This is a brand new laptop (5 days old)

Q -- tell if you have tried to clock the GPU to default speeds and still see the problem?
A -- No I did not. The only thing I've done was to "upgrade" from Vista to Windows XP SP3.

Q -- Did you set the fan speed manually to anything else than default?
A -- Nope, it was never touched.

Q -- Which program(s) do you use to overclock the GPU, fan etc.?
A -- Not applicable

Q -- Which program(s) do you use to keep check of the GPU?
A -- None, I never checked it.

Message 855263 - Posted: 19 Jan 2009, 1:47:59 UTC

I am getting artifacts on my monitor when running with cuda enable/disabled with the latest BOINC release (6.4.5).

- I am running a fresh install of XP (SP3)
- AMD Phenon II X4 940 overclocked to 3.31GHz
- 4G of RAM
- New Bfg Tech GeForce GTX 280 H2OC (this is their overclocked version I have underclocked) temp is around 100 degrees F (water cooled).
- 1G of video RAM on the card.
- Latest NVidia Driver (6.14.11.8120)
- Dual Monitors

I am getting both artifacts on my monitor plus the system will seem to pause for several minutes. I get this only when I run BOINC. I have tried running the CPU and its regular setting. I have under clocked the GPU to its 'normal' setting. I set my preferences to not run CUDA and I still would have the same problem. Sometimes the system will run for a day (and produce a but load of results) and some times I will only get errors running BOINC. I finally down graded BOINC to 6.2.19 and I no longer have this issue.

- 1G of video RAM on the card.
- Latest NVidia Driver (6.14.11.8120)
- Dual Monitors

1GB of RAM should be enough to run dual monitors with.

I set my preferences to not run CUDA and I still would have the same problem. Sometimes the system will run for a day (and produce a but load of results) and some times I will only get errors running BOINC. I finally down graded BOINC to 6.2.19 and I no longer have this issue.

Hold on, you disabled running CUDA through your preferences and you still get errors. I just looked at those errors and it looks like you are running the graphics or screen saver, right?

I see these errors:


<core_client_version>6.4.5</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<message>
- exit code -1073741819 (0xc0000005)
</message>
<stderr_txt>
In ap_gfx_main.cpp: in ap_graphics_init(): Starting client.
In ap_client_main.cpp: in mainloop(): at dm_chunk_large 896

</stderr_txt>

Please look at this FAQ which will give you some pointers as to what might be broken. Do know that between 5.10.45 and the latest 6.6.0 version nothing changed in the way BOINC shows the graphics or screen saver, so it may really (have been) be something else.

I must say, I like this task, for its claimed credit of 15,068,949,224,180,199,424.00 .. I hope you get it. ;-)

You cannot set your preferences to not run CUDA, you can only set your preferences to not download new CUDA tasks. So, already downloaded CUDA tasks in your queue will still run (and eventually cause problems).

I am pretty sure I don't have the screen saver enabled. That's usually the first thing I turn off. I still received the screen artifacts with BOINC not running any CUDA results. I ran all day yesterday without any problems on the older download.

Thanks

It's possible one of the libraries that BOINC uses went a little bad and that the install of 6.2.19 fixed that.

Keep an eye on things. I've seen the graphics errors on other people's AP tasks with errors as well.

You were right, the screen saver was on to Seti@home.
