Thank's wiggo got any reasons i'm getting validation errors ? or is that caused by my wingmen having problems ? when it restated after the update I got a disc error too which I thought was strange but that could be the cables to the drive I've had prob's like that before .

I take it that you mean your "Validation inconclusives"? If so I wouldn't worry about them as you've been winged by some dodgy rigs and I certainly wouldn't worry unless they turn into invalids. If you mean your errors, other than early in the month where it looks like you hadn't set the environment variable yet for that video card, the other errors are just ones that the standard CUDA app that you (and most other people) are using can't handle but a lot of us here use optimised CUDA apps that have a higher chance of avoiding.

No batteries here. Just a trusty 42h1292.... These things are like battleships. I have wrecked more than a few of them by physically throwing them across the room years ago.

I agree. Wish that 'pushing' unwanted programs with somewhat necessary ones was illegal. Crap should be 'opt-in' only. Not 'ooops mode' or opt-out.

There was a time they would not give you an option to uncheck things like that, but laws were passed requiring an option to uncheck certain things.
