Getting the PPSieve WUs to run on ATI cards

[Mumps]

Wow, that may be just what I've been looking for. I'm running Win 7 32bit. I get the same exit - 150 but not the detail about what file and directory is the problem. How do you open a "CMD" window as admin? I get a message "No mapping between account names and security IDs was done."

Hmmm. Well, in this case, Win 7, go to
Start->All Programs->Accessories
and Right-Click->Command Prompt
You can then select to "Run as Administrator"

The Boinc message says "[sched_op_debug] Reason: Unrecoverable error for result pps_sr2sieve_5106245_2 (exit code - 150 (0xffffff6a))"

Perhaps you could find out what is needed for Collatz also. I suspect the same kind of problem.

Thanks a lot.

I looked up your hosts over at PG and I think I've found the one with problems. It doesn't look like the same problem I had. You can get those more detailed results by looking at the results from a specific WU from your system. (Click on "Task Details" on your Task list on the PG website.)

BOINC isn't installed as a service on that machine, is it? (AKA Protected mode install...) So, I wonder why BOINC thinks it sees the device, (it wouldn't D/L GPU WU's if it didn't) but then the Project has issues accessing it. Unless, you're using Max's instructions with the app_info. So BOINC grabs the WU's even though it didn't find a GPU. But I don't think PG would report a GPU in the Hosts list if BOINC hadn't seen it. Strange.
