Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : Why my GTX260 in Vista 32 always error?

I am using GTX260 in Vista 32 system. GPUGRID tasks always meet "Calculation Error". But my another machine using GTX285 in Windows 7 does not have this problem. Is there any method to avoid this error? | |

I am using GTX260 in Vista 32 system. GPUGRID tasks always meet "Calculation Error". But my another machine using GTX285 in Windows 7 does not have this problem. Is there any method to avoid this error? Basically you use another project for the GTX260 for the time being. Its a "feature" of the current GPUgrid app that it won't work with the 190.38 driver on the GTX260. They don't know why and it seems to be specific to the GTX260. Most of us have also had the same issue with the 185.x and 186.x drivers. Drivers earlier than 185.x don't support cuda 2.2 so they won't work with the current app. We are hoping the next nvidia driver may fix it (they come out around once a month). If that doesn't fix it the project scientists have said they will look at compiling using cuda 2.3 to see if that helps. Don't hold your breath. ____________ BOINC blog | |

I have tried several drivers before 190.XX, also had the same problem. Seems it is not my problem and what I can do is just wait. | |

I don't think it necessarily is the GTX260 at fault. | |

Is there anyone with GTX260 under Vista that can run? We don't have such graphics cards and cannot test it. | |

GTX 260 216 core and vista 32-bit, i'm at your service, just tell me what u need.... i haven't had any trouble with gpugrid since testing aqua cuda and gpugrid together back in may-june | |

Anyone is able to run with some flavour of Windows 64? | |

Im running Windows 7 RC 64 bit, with two 216 core gtx 260's and 190.38 driver. No problems so far in running the CUDA 2.2 applications. | |

Anyone is able to run with some flavour of Windows 64? I have 3 GTX260, 2 running under Vista 64, one under Windows 7 64 RC. The GTX260 Extreme+ from Leadtek and GTX260² from ZOTAC are running fine with 186.xx, not with 190.38. Another GTX260² from Galaxytech get only errors, sometime after over 6 hours working. This card I have temporay replaced at the 8.8.09 with a 8800GT. ____________ ![]() | |

Best bet is for all those with this problem to wait for 190.XX which will be out this week if nvidia holds true to monthly drivers | |

Just a side note: the team in red is the one with monthly driver updates. NV distributes them as they get "finished".. as far as I know. Or did they recently promise some improvement? | |

I am running 2 machines with Vista 64. | |

I'm wondering: did any of you who's affected by the recent problems (error code 98, mostly GTX 260) get the problems without installing 190.38? I know in many cases the problems occured after the installation of 190.38 and were not reversible. | |

I know in many cases the problems occured after the installation of 190.38 and were not reversible. I did not have problems on the earlier drivers and I do not bother to uninstall earlier drivers when I install new ones. My GTX260s are 216 core. | |

Me neither, but then I also don't have a GTX 260 or those recent problems. That's why I wanted to ask the people who're affected ;) | |

My GTX260 is Zotec GTX2602 which has 216 cores. I have tried this card for several times and each time met "Calculation Error". Then the core frequency reduced to 2D mode. But my GTX285 does not have the problem. | |

cuda = to current version cuda 2.2 | |

I found my GTX285 calculates CUDA23 much slower than CUDA. But GPU temperature is about 7 degrees lower. | |

But GPU temperature is about 7 degrees lower. That shouldn't be "but".. more like "and therefore" ;) MrS ____________ Scanning for our furry friends since Jan 2002 | |

just don't have folding and gpugrid running at the same time... | |

I've been using BOINC for some time now, first only for Seti@home. Recently (late July) I joined GPUGRID. I've been running GPUGRID (and seti@home) only on the GPU (disabled CPU processing in preferences). I'm using a MSI GTX260 (192 cores) on Vista Home Premium x64 SP2. | |

GPU-Grid is more demanding than seti, in terms of heat / power consumption, error detection and error tolerance. So it could be that you're a victim of the recent GTX260 / fft issues.. or that you'd have to lower your OC a bit. | |

The "computation error" was present also before I OC'ed the GTX260 and using drivers 186.18. | |

I have nly errors with my 260-216 and I changed now to Collatz Conjecture. | |
