client error

If you are running the BOINC screensaver, can you try turning it off and see if your next result (that's fully done with it turned off) works? There is a problem with some ATI video cards and the Windows Einstein app; if running a work unit with no graphics works, then the next step is to replace the Einstein science application with the version currently in beta. If you aren't running the screensaver, someone else will step in shortly, I hope...

For anyone else who can help; additional info from one of his results;

shurikensurfer,

Looking at your results, 6 of the 7 have the same errorcode, (0xc0000005). This particular code is indicative of a known bug, an incompatability between the Einstein 4.79 version and ATI vidcards that surfaces when the user runs the Einstein screensaver or clicks the "Show Graphics" button on the manager.

If your situation fits this scenario...

Three options to fix the issue: upgrade to the Einstein 0.18 beta__OR__retrograde to the Einstein 4.19 version__OR__disable the Einstein screensaver and refrain from asking manager to show graphics.

Regards,

Michael

S'ok - I just figured nobody else would be awake at that hour, so I'd try to toss in a couple of ideas! :-)
