Well, I guess I shouldn't be suprised....
I'll be taking the 196.75 drivers off my machine some time over the weekend.
Seems that there has been no major improvement in this latest release so I'll be going back to the 191.07 drivers that are stable and reasonably fast
There's no visible slow donw in the speed that my cuda tasks are running, but at the same time it doesn't seem to have improved anything either.
So.... if it ain't broke don't fix it

Fredericx51:
On my XP x64, host, I did have some strange screen-issues, like 'white pixels' filling the screen, until the whole screen is white, also getting a striped-message page in BOINC 6.10.18. I read about this issue in the SETI N.C. and CUDA forums and I changed
to 'older' drivers, 190.38, in stead of 196.61 or 75 drivers.

Now I have problems with Reschedule 0.9, on my VISTA (32BIT/Home-Premium), it states:
Reschedule version 1.9
Time: 05-03-2010 16:18:05
Automatic test for a reschedule
Error:'1268867407.000000' is not a valid floating point value

Does anybody, knows why I get this 'answer' ?
 

Ghost0210:
Can't help you with the Reschedule error you're getting, sorry  ???
The only problem I get with Reschedule is when I upgrade Boinc to the 32 bit instead of the 64 and it's looking in the wrong directory, but I've never seen this error before. I don't use the automatic schedule option as Boinc occasionally rejects the password.
Do you still get this error when you do a manual rechedule?

The 196.75 drivers have been pulled by nVidia at the moment because of fan speed issues, see the post by Jason G
