185.85 + CUDA 2.2 = no app freezing anymore.

(1/3) > >>

KarVi:
I would just like to report that since upgrading nVidia drivers to 185.85 and using the 2.2 CUDA dll's, my 9500 doesn't seem to stop processing, or slow down in the middle of WU's, as it has done since starting to run CUDA.

Normally I would have to restart the machine once a day (a good run could go on for 2 days), because the app slowed down, or stopped processing. A reboot was the only way I knew to get back to normal speed.

With the newer drivers and DLL's, it hasn't happened once, and crunching times are also better than before.

Don't know if its the drivers or the DLL's thats doing the trick, but its definetely better.

I recommend upgrading if peoble are having the same problems, its worth a shot.

Found the latest graphics drivers, but where are the CUDA 2.2 drivers?

Got'em.  Thanks!

I can confirm that, at least for the last 24 hours, no workunits have locked up since I upgraded to 185.85 and Cuda 2.2.  However, my video card literally melted due to a fan failure so any further testing will have to be postponed until I get the RMA in a week or two.  :-/
