    Re: ati 4870 failing immediately

    This is weird. I'm am not having any issues at all. Not with my 5830, nor the three 4850. That's four cards across three systems, Win7 Home premium, WinXP Pro and Win7 Ultimate (all are x64).

    BOINC Manager v6.10.58 (All 3 systems)
    Milkyway App app 0.82
    HD 4850s - ATI Catalyst 10.10 (w/o OpenCL)
    HD 5830 - AMD Catalyst 11.5 (w/ OpenCL)

    Edit: Just to be clear, the ATI CAtalyst 10.10 driver comes in two versions for each OS platform.

    Example:
    Without OpenCL: 10-10_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_enu.exe
    With OpenCL: 10-10_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_ocl.exe

    The recent aps posted at Arkayn seem to address this issue. I couldn't get my XP32 going because I didn't have the time to screw with it. Check out their aps for your OS and DL the one that fits your chip instructions (SSE1, SSE2, SSE3...etc........) The WU's I have been sent, work for the 0.82 files.

    Doesn't it figure that when a possible solution is in reach, mw goes down. I've downloaded the files and copied them to the mw directory. When it comes up again we'll find out if it worked on the Win32. Just glad I had the Nvidia cards to at least get some of the double credits. Thanks for all the suggestions and I'll let you know what happens.

    Maybe just to help the admin(s) at MW you could post your original problem on their forum. See this ---> http://www.setiusa.us/showthread.php...ll=1#post20497

    Glad to hear you got it running. These stupid problems really make running their project frustrating!

    Hey Beer, Who told you that you didn't have any Double Precision ATI's? From where I'm sitting YOU have 3 HD 4850s and 1 HD 5830 just waiting to crunch some Milkyway!!!!

    Man, thats very tempting!! That is a really generous offer!...I will however feel better if you just crunch on our own. I donīt wanna take anyones crunchers. Also - since the reducing credit thingy at PG, I am looking for DP ATI next time..
