I have not watched any YouTube video and have run 4 tasks today without any error. The wingmen are absent. On April 29 all tasks failed. See what I am doing today.

5 pending so far and counting. Wingmen, wake up!
I don't know how you don't

I don't know how you don't understand this.
it has nothing to do with your wingmen or youtube or windows updates or whatever other nonsense you are trying to distract with. the GPU is insufficient for certain GW tasks, and there is nothing you can do to prevent from getting them except stopping GPU GW processing.
some tasks will run OK. some tasks will not. some tasks require less than 2GB of GPU memory, these will succeed. some tasks require more than 3GB of GPU memory. these are the ones that will fail. they come in random and unpredictable times. the reason you haven't seen failures today yet is simply because you haven't been sent the large tasks in a little while. that doesn't mean the issue is fixed. you WILL receive the large tasks again and you will produce errors again.
please do everyone a favor and just stop GW processing on that 3GB GPU. you are just making the already bad situation worse.

The only wingman I see is

The only wingman I see is using a 2 GB board. This morning, I saw a video with Kip Thorne who made a history of GW history. One of the photos he showed was that of Joe Weber and his resonant mass detector.
I published the same photo in a Mondadori Yearbook in 1970 to illustrate an article by prof. Peter Bergmann of Syracuse University,who was a coworker of Einstein. I talked with him in Milano. This is not the first time I hear of gravitational waves. I have 9 more to crunch, then I shall please you and go back to Rosetta@home, which is more important and uses no GPU Board.

good lord, none of that has

good lord, none of that has anything to do with this LOL.
you can still crunch Einstein on your GPU, just go into the project settings and uncheck the Gravitational Wave on GPU, and check the Gamma Ray #1 on GPU. the gamma ray search will run fine on your GPU. you can even run Rosetta on the CPU and gamma ray on the GPU, they aren't mutually exclusive, you don't have to pick just one.

I shall leave Einstein@home

I shall leave Einstein@home after I finish the current batch of tasks. I am a pensioner and can not afford a new board. They become obsolete very rapidly, because they are used in supercomputers and bit mining machines. Ampere is the latest nVidia GPU. So long.

Preliminary results with an
)
Preliminary results with an Amd Radeon 5700 on GW gpu indicate almost not change in processing speeds from 1 task to 3 tasks.
It runs from 18+ minutes to under 21 minutes. So basically an R5700 can out produce high-end Nvidia cards if you run 3 gpu tasks.
There may be memory issues with 3 gpu tasks just like there is with a Gtx 1060 3GB video card.
I am switching my Pulsar Search#1 box to run both P and GW gpus since I expect the R5700 to end up on it possibly by the weekend.

Or you can switch to the Pulsar Search#1 which should be able to run E@H tasks. And/or run Gravity Wave on your cpu cores.

I just noticed that the GW gpu ati-beta tasks are not showing up on my system task listing on the Website. Are the results listed anyplace else?
I have turned off Test on the GW gpu profile.

the question is, why are you running beta apps? just run the stock ones.
