Well, I never have gotten PG working so I tried DNETC. That works ok. Maybe when the reported bad WUs flush out at PG I'll have better luck.

Ok. I'm moving this to a thread so your questions aren't spread through a bunch of places...;)

If it's running on DNETC and completing things successfully, that answers a lot of the questions. We know it works...

On PG - make sure you have the OpenCL support installed and .NET 3.5 installed. And wait for this batch of bad WUs to be done with. Then try it again.

As far as Collatz, I'm not sure what the problem is. Just about every ATI card should work there...

Here is the link to the Open CL download page for AMD (http://developer.amd.com/gpu/atistreamsdk/pages/default.aspx#five).

And for Netframe 3.5 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6&displaylang=en) as well.

I finally got my ATI HD5830's working after I installed Open CL; eventhough it doesn't say to restart your system after it installs, you'll need to restart your system. The WU's continued to error out until a reboot. The WU's are taking ~27 minutes to complete.

...And wait for this batch of bad WUs to be done with. Then try it again...From what I understand, for whatever reason, the "bad" WUs will complete successfully if you still have the app_info in place. :confused:
He could try installing the app_info & exe to see if the problem lies with his setup or just bad WUs. ;)
