Still here since day one. I believe my first cruncher was a PII-233.

Or I should say "back again." I did take a few years off, and unplugged all of my PC's. I couldn't afford the electricity anymore.

Started up again a couple of days ago, just one PC now. Learning all over again how to optimize it. I had forgotten how OCD I can get. ;-)
2) Questions and Answers : GPU applications : Positive Feedback on 6.08 on Boinc 6.4.6 x64 (Message 869779)

I thought I'd pass on some good news. Cuda client 6.08 on Boinc 6.4.6 x64 on Windows 7 x64 beta build 7000 works perfectly fine. I'm amazed. After so much grief, it's a revelation to see unit after unit finish quickly without stalling and/or killing my graphics performance and/or crashing my nvidia drivers. Kudos.
3) Questions and Answers : Windows : Upload problems continue .... when will this issue be fixed? (Message 34427)

I've lost a distressing number of work units these last couple of days on two pc's. (Three pc's are submitting properly, however.) They're my fastest boxes, of course. Several were rejected in the last few minutes, so I'm suspending Boinc on these machines and running Classic until this problem is resolved.

Two out of my five pc's are losing work. It is not a firewall issue, since they're all going through the same shared internet connection.

That's so plausible, I can't believe it.
