Solo_Collatz error ATI HD5870

Not sure what is causing this, but I have tried the new solo_Collatz on two separate days now, and both times the WUs immediately error out on my HD 5870. It will crunch the regular Collatz just fine. If there's any similarities between the two projects, it errored out Donate WUs immediately too, although I was told that could have been Donate's server problem. It runs every other GPU project just fine.

The new Solo_collatz seems to be working on the one nVidia card I have, so it must be something with that HD 5870 - driver? Settings? Not sure...
Any suggestions? :)
Thanks for your time.

Ran that a few days ago. None of my ATIs had an issue. What driver version are you running?

Oh and I checked a couple of your wu status logs and saw this

Sounds like a memory issue or maybe your firewall is restricting app execution? Assuming you are running a firewall... :P

Re: Solo_Collatz error ATI HD5870

Hmmm...looks like it's running Catalyst version 13.1 - should that work? Not sure why it would give me a memory error when the regular Collatz works so well? Sits pegged at 97 to 98% GPU usage, and hardly any CPU use at all, and no stuttering issues with the screen or anything. But then I try the new Solo_Collatz and it immediately errors out.

On the firewall side of things - wouldn't it affect the other version of Collatz as well, or do you think they are pulling some different IP address or something? Seems strange...

Re: Solo_Collatz error ATI HD5870

Please realize my suggestions are off the cuff so to speak. Just spouted out the first things that came to mind. Thats why I posted the link to the task log, so someone more knowledgeable might take it upon themselves to investigate.....

Anyhoot, it can't hurt to try resetting the project. Also try running only Collatz on that system, just to see.

Yeah I tried solo wus for about week, they always failed so I just decided to stop accepting them.

Re: Solo_Collatz error ATI HD5870

I tried a couple different times to run the solo WU's and then just decided to uncheck the box for them and not try to run them again. :confused:

Tried everything I could think of except rolling the driver version back to an old one. Will just not run them I guess.

Wu's won't work with Catalyst version 13.1, you need to go for 12.10. Please read first three topics: http://boinc.thesonntags.com/collatz...orum.php?id=25

Re: Solo_Collatz error ATI HD5870

Just a note to pile on here. I am also getting the same error with my ATI card on solo_collatz 4.0X (opend_ati_100). So I also disabled those WU's, thanks for the tip!! ;)

Yesterday, Slicker released v4.07 Collatz apps for Windows that does work with Cat 13.4 and therefore can run upto x6 faster then previous versions. (Link)

Re: Solo_Collatz error ATI HD5870

The 4.07 app works for most but not all. For those still having problems, see the "optimizing 4.07 applications" thread on the collatz message boards and add the "build_options=-Werror -cl-opt-disable" line. AMD has finally admitted the driver is the problem and their engineers are working on it. Probably will be several driver releases away before it gets fixed though.

8-} They could never release a driver to fix me. :((

I don't think we would want them to even if possible. We like you just the way you are. ;;)

Just glad you were able to get through to someone over there!
Well, after the Pentathlon is over, I'm going to add a second HD 5870 and do a clean sweep with the drivers, and install the latest ones. Hopefully that will fix the problem for me now with this new app. :)
