    I am having problems running CasA-v1.08 GWopencl-nvidia-Beta on one of my boxes (ID: 8183504 - asus2). The same CasA - v1.08 - GWopencl-nvidia-Beta seems to be running OK on my other (almost identical) box (ID: 10810284 - asus3). Asus3 box was built less than a year after asus 2 box was built using almost identical components. Both boxes have a Asus Z87-A MB. The biggest difference is asus2 box has a i5 CPU, asus3 box has a i7 CPU. Both boxes have a single Gigabyte GTX760 REV 2 GPU card with the latest drivers. The only difference I can see between the GPU cards is the asus2 card has a BIOS version F60. The asus3 card has a BIOS version F70. GPU temps rarely go above 60C.
    HELP!
    Sorry wingmen!

      The CasA tasks on Ron's Windows7 Professional box are all throwing an Access violation in msvcrt.dll, example:

      http://einsteinathome.org/task/432521477

      The tasks on his Windows7 Ultimate box are completing.

                Too late for me. All the HTTP errors made me reach the daily quota so the project won't send anything :(

                  Solved!
                  With help from Bill through some PM's, we identified the culprit as an outdated OpenCL CPU driver. I was loading "Intel SDK for OpenCL - CPU Only Runtime Package" into both machines. The version that was giving me problems was 3.0.0.66956, while the unit that was working OK had version 3.0.1.15216. I deleted the outdated version and started crunching without errors. I may experiment and install the newer version and see what happens, or I just may leave it out.

                  I want to thank everybody for their help, thread hijack aside!
                  Happy crunching!
                  Ron

                    I'm glad you got your issue resolved! Thanks for letting us know the outcome.

                    I saw your original message soon after you posted it, together with the following comment about the access violation in msvcrt.dll, but I had no idea what to make of it. I've only just seen the thread hijacking.

                    @ Harri Liljeroos - Please don't blatantly hijack threads like this. The OP posted about his particular compute error, specific to his host. This is quite unrelated to your download error which is a server side issue of some sort, which now seems to have been resolved. Unless your problem is directly related to that of the OP, please start your own thread.

                    Cheers,
                    Gary.
