TAS members' thread February-March 2007: DPAD and ex-NanoHive@Home.

[Rudy Toody]

Help!

I've tried to get DPAD running, but it generates an error. I've sent it to Microsoft, but they haven't gotten back with a solution (which is generally the case.)

My OS is Windows XP Pro x64 on an AMD FX-60.

What kind of error? Please give us some details - someone may have seen it! Error codes? Error messages? BSOD? :Q

 

[Rudy Toody]

It just says Exception and dumps info on dozens of modules starting with muon1. the exception: 0xc0000005 Access Violation

 

[Silverthorne]

I'm not familiar with errors but if you try the DPAD Forum, Stephen Brooks who runs this project is more than willing to help. He frequents the forum often.

 

[caferace]

I'm back, with a little mini-dump.

It went very well, Thanks. I think the racetrack I was at (http://thunderhill.com) was the only place in California it *wasn't* raining today. Unfortunately, many people stayed away, as heavy rain was predicted. Of course, that just meant a much more wide open track for everyone else.

I graduated 26 new racers into the AFM today. Very satisfying. As I myself am temporarily semi-retired from racing, it's kind of like a "legacy", if you will.

Sounds just great ---

semi-retired? From motorbikes parhaps, but not from DC-racing.
:sun: Must be also very safisfying (spelling???) being able to feel the wind and speed ... I remember those days - although I was in (car) ralley ... in the seventies.

 

[petrusbroder]

OK, TAS-crunchers ... any more cores to add to the fleet? Please do - we need them!

 

[BlackMountainCow]

... not on my end ...

 

[caferace]

DPAD doesn't want to run on my PIII fleet. They're Windows XPe, and barf on some BOINC projects as well.

-jim

 

[BlackMountainCow]

Strange. Never had any prob with DPAD on my PIII-600 with either Win2k or WinXP (Home & Pro) ..

 

[caferace]

XP Embedded is a different animal altogether. EWF protected C drive, funkily partitioned D and E. Missing core components, etc, etc....

[BlackMountainCow]

Oh, now I see that "e". Ok, that's indeed a different story. No experience with that OS.

 

[petrusbroder]

TTT ^^^ BUMP ^^^ TTT

 

[caferace]

I haven't crunched anything at N@H in 10 days now....

Pending credit: 25,134.31

jeez.

-jim

 

[petrusbroder]

I agree, 12 days no new work: 11 339 pending credits (down from 26 000 pending ...).
Some of my pending credits are more than 24 days old ...

 

[petrusbroder]

Congrats to...
Caferace for passing his 1 000 000 Mpts milestone
Lizardth for passing her 100 000 Mpts milestone
... the 27th of february!

Awsome crunching!

 

[petrusbroder]

DPAD-stats coming up Sunday, not Saturday ... way too nice weather coming up ...

So what you're saying is, it will at long last get above freezing?

-jim

edit: Thx for the congrats, Peter..

 

[petrusbroder]

No, not above - but the sun will shine, it'll be clear weatherand some -6 degrees C. That is just perfect for skiing - and for watching the eclipse of the moon ...

 

[petrusbroder]

Free-DC has passed Team Anandtech.

 

[BlackMountainCow]

... to a certain degree it was inevitable ...

 

[BlackMountainCow]

5,000,000 creds for me!

We do have more then enough collective power to take back 2nd place...

Could a few more crunchers join our effort?
