Greetings to all readers of this epic thread  , more than 60600 had have a look here. 
After the summer break I'm back now with a full equipt V8-VM1 for final testing.
OS: Windows64 Professional 64Bit
MS Visual Studio Professional
Intel Parallel Studio
NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK(emu mode)
ATI Stream SDK with Open CL

To show how all this works I compiled some samples and attached the files.
Now you can have a look at it.

Today I had have a outage of 6 hours.
After updating the Catalyst Center and several updates from Microsoft the machine shut down and did not restart again. The display of the board shows constant 29, nothing more happened. POST comes not to the end any more.
So I demounted the Server, took off the memory, cleaned all tools. As I was ready with my work and all mounted again, I switched the power on. It hang again on 29. Then I pressed reset and after that POST finished and the machine comes up, I pressed F2 to go to BIOS setup, switched off the ocing press F10 to save and after this the machine comes up again and load the OS Vista64 Ultimate.
Now I made BIOS update 1353 over OS.
Datum System BIOS   07/24/09
DMI BIOS Version   XS54010J.86A.1353.2009.0724.1139
After restart the machine loads the OS happily.   
I made some driver update for sound and network, shut down and switched the ocing on again in the BIOS.
CPU Takt   2398.3 MHz  (Original: 2000 MHz, overclock: 20%)
CPU FSB   399.7 MHz  (Original: 333 MHz, overclock: 20%)
The machine starts without any problems now.
Now Catalyst 09.8(from Sapphire not from AMD) is installed and working.

All days surpises with updates,  I'm happy that no hardware was damaged

Better downgrade Catalyst to 9.2
it has more sense now.

Now I'm running ati 9.2 & boinc 6.10.7
so far this works with the milkyway project.
elapsed 2:13 for each wu.
Some additional test for our seti project can now be done.
In preparation of this I give Jason access to the V8.

Today I updated the ati-stream-SDK to v2.0-beta3  09/23/2009
on V8-VM1 and V8-SK01
some compiler and code generation issues are fixed
64-bit atomic built-ins are now recognized

Get my W7 Ultimate yesterday 

Have fun ! 

[_heinz]

This morning I found the V8-Xeon down..
The 1000W AXP Power supply died....phhhh 
Fighting now with RMA... 

[@Home]

Downgraded to Catalyst 9.2.
Downloaded ap_5.05_win_x86_SSE3_BROOK_r280 and like to start testing.
Has someone a working app_info.xml for this purpose?
Furthermore a read something about a BOINC Beta account. Do I need that? Is it different from my 'normal' BOINC account?
