I don't know what happened, but MW stopped working for me. I have an NVidia GTX295 GPU.

Is it O/Ced at all? Maybe try a "reset" project or even a detach and re-attach to the project. They're really just getting good CUDA support, so maybe it just hung or something?

Video card is not O/Ced. It was working great until I started getting those cuda_opencl tasks.

Do you have openCL installed on that computer? That would be my initial guess, but I don't have any CUDA cards that can crunch MW...

Ah, that makes sense. Maxwell's probably on the right track.
I just checked at the Nvidia website for you, and try downloading the latest drivers - they say "support for OpenCL 1.0".
Also, might check in at the MW forum on their site; I did that once and got some good answers pretty fast.

Updating the Nvidia driver to 260.99 seemed to fix the computation error, however, now the GPU temperatures seem to be abnormally high (100-103º C) when crunching MW work units. Not sure I want to leave it running 24/7 at that temp.

If your GPU fan is set to auto put it on manual and set it at least 70%. If you can stand the noise set it higher.

Maybe it is telling you that it wants to crunch PG's PPS CUDA app for a while. Credits beat MW and maybe it won't run as hot.

WOW Smuuth....

Glad you took the time to attend the boards....You are gonna like the RAC of those CUDA cards!!

Haha! Good one. You will be amazed at what that little card will rock you in points on the new PG CUDA app! :D :cool:
