No :)
Try to kick BOINC devs some more for it ;D

That must be you as i'm running apps from you for over 1 year now ;)
solution: c:\ut\pssuspend.exe MB_6.08_mod_CPU_team_CUDA.exe

Sure you can suspend process via ProcessLasso, via ProcessExplorer or by any other means... but it's OS level solution, not BOINC level one.

I have a small problem, may be noobish, don't know.
My client doesnt request new WUs. It always ask for 0 seconds of new work although the cue is nearly empty now and it should be enough for 8 days (tried different settings here)
A few days ago i installed the third package of first post of this thread on my intel dualcore. Once in a while i had AP WUs in my cue so i edited the app_info.xml and cutted the lines referencing AP. It worked nicely thereafter, but now ... no more WUs at all. Certainly i am not sure if there is a connection with my editing as it does not help to restore the original app_info.xml as provided by raistmer. Any ideas ?
p.s. sry for my bad english
edit:
i had to learn that the client does not request new tasks if there are too much unsent results waiting to be transferred. In the net i've read that too much is something like more than two times the number of your cores. I can't proove this, but from the behavior of my clients this seems to be reasonable.

Hi all,
I'm running the AK V8 + CUDA MB team mod since last week, and everything was fine till the weekend. The WU's from my cache worked fine, but after finaly getting new work, I got quite a lot compute errors withs BOINC telling me "Outpute file xy_0 for task xy is absent". On one machine I get these errors for about 1 out of 20 WU's, but the other is much worse (so I switched it to get no new work).
Any suggestions for this problem?
BTW, when I started the mod the first time I observed the following:
The 6.03 WU's from my cache were processed fine, but all new work was 6.08 WU's (prcessed fine as well). As I understand it, the team mode should be able to process both types (as the are not realy different, just another name basically), then why is my BOINC just getting 6.08 WU's and not mixed work, depending on availability? This is not a problem, I'm just curious.
And Raistmer and all involved, keep up the good work. It realy is appreciated.
Andreas

1) Probably your BOINC installation was unable to load files from berkeley's servers. Network connection overloaded now so corrupted downloads is very likely.
2) BOINC will mark all new work with latest app version available to it.
