I just got a bunch of the new s/w processed WUs from '06; Reschedule sent them to my GPU. When they started to run, ALL of them (about 30) got computation errors in just a few seconds, and then several non-06 WUs got errors also. I shut down my machine, and restarted it, and so far (fingers crossed) have no more such errors.

Has anyone else had a GPU problem with these?

I am using an EVGA GTS 250 card, and the temp was only around 52 degrees, so not a heating problem.

Too little free GPU memory, you may need to reboot:

Total GPU memory 536870912 free GPU memory 31625216

                                                              Joe

That will explain a lot. Sometimes my GTX 295 just kill all my 3 day cache in minutes. A reboot each couple of days sounds a good measure until things cleared up.

G and J:
Thanks for your responses.
I think that may have been it, as it seems to be working OK now that I rebooted.
But what could cause that problem all of a sudden? Is it just a random event?I've been running this card 24/7 for months now, and never seen this kind of phenomenon before...

And if one task fails with that problem, all subsequent tasks will fail too until reboot.

I don't keep a large cache so I haven't had too many of the new WUs but the few I've done so far have run fine on both my CPU and my 9500GT GPU. I'm also running the rescheduler but only to move VLARs off my GPU so I can't help you there.

I think I've seen the problem you describe before but can't remember where. It was some time back and way before the new SW blanked WUs. I'm sure somebody will chime in with the link to it soon.
