Hi:
I am facing these messages recently:
1st error message= computation error.
2nd error message= unit stopped working.
I restarted the application but these messages still appears with some units.
I am running WIN7 x64
Also , is there any way to speed crunching on my machine?
My machine is :
AMD 1090T 3.7 9m
8g DDR3 RAM
MSI ATI 5770
Thanks

As the errors occur in different apps (ABP2 and S5GC1) and in different places in the code, it's highly likely that your overclocking is too aggressive. Try to revert to the stock settings to see if this helps.

thanks for your reply
My CPU rung 3.2 and I overclocked to 3.6 so it is not too aggressive.
also it managed to finis most of the units.
thanks

Hi,
Actually, most of your units fail. Whether an overclocking to 3.6Ghz is enough to trigger errors will depend on the individual CPU. Some will work, some will fail.
Happy crunching

Is there any way to accelerate my crunching ? as I see many donoers have high crunching power per day.
Thanks

Once you get your AMD X6 stable, it will will be an excellent crunching machine. Even then the RAC number will climb only slowly, but only because it's a moving average over the last few weeks, so it takes time to settle to a stable value.
I see you already participate in Milkyway@Home, so I guess you know that you can make good use of your ATI graphics card to crunch there. Einstein®Home only suports NVIDIA graphics cards for crunching.
Happy crunching

the problem in milkyway that they require double precision chip which is not available in my ATI 5770 !!!
RE: the problem in milkyway

True but projects like Dnetc or Collatz can both use your 5770 just fine, not all projects can use all hardware. I have two 5770 gpu's and am getting about 160k rac per day from one of them and the other should get there too but only started crunching the other day so it is still winding up. Lots of us split our crunching with the cpu crunching for one project and the gpu crunching for another, it kind of fills our need to try and help several projects at once. Unfortunately not all projects currently support the use of a gpu and even then not all support both Nvidia and ATI gpu's.
Thanks Mikey What is dnetc

Thanks Mikey
What is dnetc ? Is it a project? what field?
Sorry but I am relatively new
Thanks

No problem Dnetc is a project and can be found here:
http://www.dnetc.net/
There are a ton of Boinc projects and they are listed here:
[ur]http://www.distributedcomputing.info/projects.html[/url]
That is a list of alot of the 'active' Distributed Computing Projects and the Boinc ones are noted. Some projects will start up and then for some reason die out, those are not listed. The only Project not listed as a Boinc Project but really is one is the World Community Grid Project. It is several projects under one umbrella and you can then chose which ones you want to run from their list. If you click on the different projects you will be taken to a list that gives a short detail about each one.
