V8-xeon is death  After the last shutdown I restarted the server yesterday. But surprisingly the machine did not start, it hung up while starting the OS Vista64. I tried the secure mod, but nothing helped. After initial loading of some driver the machine switched off automatic. After this happened, the machine comes no more over the BIOS selftest. So I decided to open the case for a general cleaning. I took off all 3 grafikadapters and the main memory. Here a look at the empty machine. After cleaning all tools I let the 2 GTX470 off. Now still one graphic-adapter GTX570 is insertedIf I switch the machine on, the display on the board runs till 28 and then comes 29 and the machine switched off. Port 80h POST codesNo good sign. Looks like a defect memory or chipset. I will took off the memory and clean again, hoping to have a little more luck. If you have some specal tips, they are welcome. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Happy Eastern Joyses Paques to all readers heinz |

V8-Xeon, after recleaning, I could run once through the BIOS successful till to the access on the disk, then switched the PSU off. So I can hope the board and chipset is not damaged. Looks like I need a new PSU. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ btw. i3 GT540M got 5Mio primegrid and my ION R3600 Atom will catch 1 Mio in the next days. modify: First seen on 2010-10-09 06:58:22 CPU Intel(R) Atom(tm) CPU 230 @ 1.60GHz Number of CPU's (number of (virtual) cores) 1(2) Operating System and version Microsoft Windows 7 Current Credit (based on incremental update) 1,091,539.47 Recent average credit RAC (projects accumulated) 6,143.94147 same later: now R3600 ATOM 230 ION get 1 Mio primegrid Last year, nobody had ever thought that such a small machine can do it.  heinz |

some more pictures from x38g i3 gt540m crunching 3 akv8b and 2 x38gwhile running 3 akv8 vlar on CPU the temp was going up to 84 grd and the CPU downclocked from 2,6GHz to 931MHz. Yeah, akv8 is a toaster heinz modify: have you noticed CPU need still 8.23 Watt . |

Hi Jason, CUDA3.2 & INTEL's Compiler Package ID: w_ccompxe_2011.1.127 I used the patch CompilerIDEPluginUpdate.zip to avoid the rules-file error sucessful. The rules-file error is gone.  Projekt: MonteCarloMultiGPU and Projekt: MonteCarlo does not sucessful compile with Intel Compiler ptxas hung up ========== Alles neu erstellen: 91 erfolgreich, Fehler bei 2, 0 übersprungen ========== So far, we must wait for the next update. heinz Intel Composer XE 2011 Update 4 meanwhile I have CUDA4000 installed. It compiles now the two MonteCarlo projects. ... Compiling with Intel(R) C++ Compiler XE 12.0.4.196 [Intel(R) 64]... (Intel C++ Environment) ========== Alles neu erstellen: 93 erfolgreich, Fehler bei 0, 1 übersprungen ========== I close now the issue. heinz. modify: one is still open: the massive use of memory during compilation makes the system sluggish as you can see radixsortthrust_memory_useOn a 32Bit machine with 2GB RAM it hung up. |

On a 32Bit machine with 2GB RAM it hung up. Memory use of my R3600 ATOM during compilation-process of RadixSurtThrust_x32I can cofirm the error is gone using the beta-compiler. Now we wait for the official update from Intel heinz

To use the right hardware to support AVX and CUDA Laptop Erazer X6816 now available in Germany. with Geforce-GT-555M 2048MB VRAM699 Euro, really a hot price. Don't make the same error as myself, bought a laptop with i3-390M, (P6630 with GT540M) although it is launched at Q1/2011 it's previous generation. See difference of i7-2720QM, i7-2630QM, my i3-390MI bought it too early, could'nt wait. heinz |

As my v8-xeon died I bought a Tablet PC "AIRIS One PAD" 10-inch-infotmic-X210-1GHz-Android-2-2-OS-Tablet-PC-With-GPS-Function like this oneI equipt it with "32GB mcroSD Class 10" card to hold all my data. It's very handy and runs great, a very useful toy. I like small formfactor of hardware. |

Most of us run a little bit o'ced GPU's and and are already confronted with the downlocking problematic.
Therefore it's worth to post something about it here.
I had installed Nvidia's driver 275.33, later 280.19 and BOINC 6.12.33 64Bit and run into the downclocking trap.
That means, always if I stop BOINC and Start it again, the GPU clocked down to 50% of its frequency and come not up again.
And if I use EVGA Precision to set the frequency up nothing happened. It was not possible to run in full speed again till to the next restart.
Now I'was going back to driver 267.21 and BOINC 6.10.60 and the downclocking did not happen again. EVGA Precision works as it should do.

downclocking - upclocking ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On the picture you see what happen when I stop Boinc and then start Boinc, the card clocked down and up again as it should be. gt540m_clockdown_clockup |

...driver version unknown... Hi Heinz, I am currently playing with nvApi , which is linked into Boinc. I haven't looked in detail what interface they use to get the driver, but I suppose it's possible they use some outdated methods, or some other method than recommended. For other purposes I made an extremely primitive test to see that I could access nVapi, 7zip archived exe and example screenshot attached. If this shows the correct driver on your system ( instead of Unknown '...' ) then I might dig deeper to see what they might be doing wrong. Ignore the stuff about view modes, it was just a trial to see if I could dig deeper into some system information, and it may not work for all systems. |
