MW@Home on NV OpenCL (GTX460 1GB) - "Computation error"

[VirtualLarry]

Got a string of 10 of these computation errors, for MilkyWay@Home WUs.

Running BOINC 7.0.25 64-bit.

Not sure what's going on here. Running 280.26 drivers, same as I was running before.

As far as I know, my GTX460 cards have always been stable.

Temps on the GPU haven't exceeded 70C, since I re-did my rig. CPU temps are 60-62C.

Running Q9300 @ 3.0, 8GB DDR2-800, GTX460 1GB OC 715Mhz.

this is the reason MW@H has been up and down (though mostly down) over the last ~24 hours: updating server daemons

and this explains the brief string of WU's resulting in errors ever since the server came back online: testing work generation with 'ps_separation_14_2s_null_3'

...long story short, some long overdue MW@H server maintenance started yesterday, and as usual it took a bit longer to implement than originally projected. once the server came back online (just a few hours ago), there were some additional server-side problems that were resulting in WU errors. Travis (project developer) has finally fixed the problem...so any WU's from here on out should crunch without error.

Thanks for this info. Glad to know my hardware isn't flaking out on me.

btw, the server went down again. it appears they still ave some hiccups to work out...given the nature of the usual MW@H server maintenance outages, i imagine it'll be another 24-48 hours before things get back to normal...
