Or a batch file named "Reschedule.bat"

Del Reschedule.log
ReSchedule.exe /Autorun 95
Del D:\BOINC\client_state2010*.xml
exit

NOte that this batch file even cleans up the left behind client_state2010*.xml files.

Then call the batch file from a Scheduled Task which runs the batch file at any time you wish. I use 00:00AM and 12:00PM for twice a day.

[edit]You should edit the paths to match your system. My rescedular stuff is in a folder named Reschedular in the Boinc working directory.

This is for auto deleting of the ReSchedule legacy after execution.

Thanks for the hint!

But.. could you (or someone else) explain it how to do it?

I tried the autostart with ReSchedule tool, but after every reboot of my PC I got a strange error in it and it didn't worked (WinXP Home 32bit).
I guess it need a delayed execution after reboot in my OS. But I don't know how I could do it. :-#

So all the time I make a reboot the first activity is always to click on the icon on the WinDesktop. :-D

Sutaru,
One possibility is to use a windows script file and place that in your startup folder.

You would need to create a file e.g. reschedule.vbs which contains something like :-


Dim WshShell, oExec
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

WScript.Sleep 20000

Set oExec = WshShell.exec("c:\reschedule.exe")


The sleep command is in milliseconds so sleep 20000 delays for 20 seconds etc and then reschedule is executed.

Hope this helps.


John.

Sorry missed youre reply. Just create the file using notepad. From a command prompt type cscript reschedule.vbs. This should test run the script manually.

To schedule the task, open up Control Panel and click Scheduled tasks. Create a new scheduled task and set it to run at startup.

Figure I'll discuss now that I see a few of you with Fermi running.

If you take a look at my host, I am using a 2 year old GTX 260 core 216. I checked a few GTX470 task results as submitted by Questor using 30.9 credit WU's as the benchmark.

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=5377581

Where he is getting them done in 152 to 174 seconds, my GPU takes 213 to 225 seconds. Hm, pretty good speedup there of about 25-30% for these small wu's.

I also poked through some of Todd Hebert's results. His 480 spinning through similar tasks at about the same rate as Questor's 470 - range of 155 to 181 seconds for him across 5 or 6 tasks that have been validated as similar 30.9 credit size.

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=5220505

Obviously too small of a data set to conclude anything yet and the app is still being developed to optimize, but just wanted to throw this out there. Might be useful to look at larger tasks, next time I have time and interest. :)

Hi Questor,
How did you BONC 6.10.56 running ?
I have installed it, but it can not sync.
A new installation of BOINC 6.10.58 could not connect to any client.
path is:
D:\BOINC\boincmgr.exe
command line is:
"D:\BOINC\boincmgr.exe" /a /s
Current DATA dir is:
D:\BOINC\DATA\
Parent: <non existing process>(5104)

thats where my projects are.
If I look with processexplorer under BOINCMGR.EXE --> Properties --> TCPIP -->resolve adresses
I see two lines with TCIP
TCP Local Adress Remote Adress State
one is green
the other is red
status is : SYN_SENT

it cant get two green lines (no sync)


Any idea why BOINC 6.10.58 did not work ?

My 480's are crunching 30.9 credit units between 134 and 172 seconds. Time for some more overclocking!

I just bumped my 480's to 745Mhz and 1900Mhz and only saw a 2C increase in temp - I didn't realize that since my last reboot they had gone back to stock settings so there should be an increase in performance. 50k RAC easy by the end of the day.

What are you using to overclock them? On mine I use the EVGA Precision tool, and the clock speed is greyed out.

I use a combo of the Nvidia tool that can be found here - http://www.nvidia.com/object/nvidia_system_tools_6.06.html
and the MSI Afterburner utility to view and monitor the GPU load - http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=downloadfile&dno=11433&type=utility

And I also use the HWMon software to check the temps of all the components in my system. CPU, CPU, Memory (Support for FBDimm's) and hard drives. It has all of the information a person could need - http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor/versions-history.html

Enjoy :)

Is it unable to connect from BOINCMGR to the boinc client? I have heard of such problems where the firewall is blocking the connection. BOINCMGR conect to the client through TCPIP port 31416. Sorry I dont have Vista64 any more I downgraded to XP64 so cant directly compare. Do you get any error messages?

Have you always had this directory structure?

As far as I know, BOINC doesn't like it at all if the data path is beneath the program directory. Perhaps your problems derive from that.

Hi Gundolf,
I had always this directory structure, till now this works with BONC 6.10.18
the novum is that since I deinstalled BOINC 6.10.56 my old BOINC 6.10.18 can not connect anymore.
BOINC shows always the red logo.
I looked at my firewall, BONC is allowed there, I did nothing changed there

Any idea what todo.
Maybe Angeless can help

BOINC 6.10.56 connected now, after waiting a hour.

thanks

That's the sister of Angel, right? ;-)

The only thing I can come up with so quickly is that something is interfering on your system. I understand from Claggy, who PMed me elsewhere, that you ran a CUDA card and ATI card in the same system, but have since removed the ATI card?
Have you also uninstalled the ATI drivers completely? For if not, then BOINC could be starting up and trying to find an ATI card...

Please use Driver Cleaner (or something similar) to completely uninstall and delete the remnants of the ATI card.

You first uninstall the drivers through Add/Remove programs (or whatever that's called these days in Windows 7 ;-)), then you reboot into Safe mode and run Driver Cleaner (the one I pointed to), and use it to remove all ATI references.

Then you reboot into normal mode (and maybe you have to reinstall the drivers for the Nvidia videocard).

Hi all, have finally managed to sort my pc problems and have joined the gpu users group. My user id is ToxicTBag2 and look forward to watching this thread in particular and being part of the team.
Thank You

As it turned out that V12 codebase not compatible with FERMI I think it's better to lock this thread and use this one http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=60079 as reference how to use FERMI GPUs with SETI.
