Problem is a p1481_tet_2nm that has been stuck at frame 1 for over half a day now.

here is my log:

Should I delete it and move on?

Might be a good idea. Have you restarted the machine to see if it just needs a nudge?

Just out of curiosity, did you try running it w/o the -forceasm?

Yeah, I would try restarting the computer. If it is a bad WU it might delete on its own then. If it doesn't finish another frame in the time it took to finish the first frame then delete.

Too bad because it is one of those rare, very good PPD WUs.

Is that a slower computer?

EDIT: the -forceasm flag only does anything when the client is restarted. It tells the client to not check how it was last shutdown. This makes sure the client uses all optimizations. If the computer is unstable, do not use -forceasm.

Hey everyone the reboot seemed to do the trick :thumbsup: Pic

I have the -forceasm on because I have little-ones running around the house who like to play with Daddy's things :D
