Latest drivers (NVidia and ATI)

Tnx folks. ATI 13.4 Beta worked fine, got GPU going in SETI again using the latest KWSN apps.
We'll see how the Chinese-sourced fans do. I have an older ASUS 9800GTX, twice the hours as the MSI cards. That fan still works fine. Maybe have to look to ASUS for my next GPU.

PS I tried installing ATI 13.8 Beta. The installer flunked the usability test, would not install. I tried the usual, fresh reboot, close all the hotel load apps, etc. Nothing worked. 13.4 installed without any issues.

The fans work, we'll see about longevity. GPU 4850 is working fine after updating to latest BOINC and KWSN apps.
New issue, this PC is getting no CPU work, only GPU. Hard to believe SETI and Milkyway both ran out of CPU work at the same time. How many ways are there for me to screw up and make this happen??
Thanks

Several - link to host?
check:
- allow CPU work on project pages.
- CPU apps installed (especially with optimised)
- cache settings
- boinc balls up. can happen
can you post an instance of work_fetch_debug, so I can check on cache settings, levels and other anomalies?

SETI's currently down.
I reinstalled BOINC 7.0.64 then KWSN V0.41 installer. See what happens when SETI is back up.
According to MW@H "properties" in BOINC Manager the project has no CPU apps. I should have looked!

MW have lots of CPU apps - if boinc thinks they haven't then something is wrong. try and check their project setting page if you've allowed CPU work and the kind of apps that have CPU. sometimes boinc will choke.
I see you have anon for MW too - did you install CPU apps?
yep, seti is being asked for CPU work alright. so it becomes a question of why it isn;t bgetting any - might just be bad luck or require further diagnosis. when we are back up, try manual update a few times. If you are dry you need to manually purge (get tasks chached) to get evrything flowing again.
