CUDA_V12_app
Sutaru Tsureku:
Uhh.. I understand you with my ' poor ' school english.. :-[ ;) ..like this.. that the opt._CUDA_app have little higher priority than the normal 'lower than normal' in TaskManager ?
Something between 'lower than normal' and 'normal' ?
Thanks! :)
Lord Asmodeus:
Yes, I used the installer.
I just did it again, and had the same result.
Videos seams to "slideshow" a little, in fact even the screen in general seems impaired, with the mouse slowing, etc.
When I restore my backup of the C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOINC folder, it doesn't work ! Does the installer do something elsewhere ? boinc.exe takes 25% of the CPU (a full core) and no app seems to launch, but it screws WU (CUDA & CPU) one by one. I have to uninstall BOINC, reinstall it, then it works. I restored again at this point, to get back the screwed WU.
I tried the new drivers and new CUDA dll, they work fine.
config : Xeon 3210, GTX280, XP32, latest BOINC

Sorry, I'm a bit lost as to where you're up to with this. Is it working fine? or something trashing the boinc folder/ seti tasks, or freezing happening?
Installer does nothing outside the setiathome project folder deeper in the folder you mention, (unless you tell it to install outside)
Lord Asmodeus:
Well V11 is working fine, V12 not. And when I went from V12 back to V11 (deleting all the BOINC folder, restoring rared archive), it didn't work, I had to reinstall BOINC on top of it.
Jason G:
Ahhh, I see. Thanks for explaining. Yeah, it probably just would've worked better to just use the uninstaller via add/remove programs to put the old app back, sacrificing the few WUs. For normal Boinc backups I'm fairly certain there is some elaborate mucking around to to restore from a Boinc backup that will work if there was network activity disabled while. But I've never had to try it myself, so can't advise there. In any case, glad you have something that works with your config.
