I just noted that I had two tasks error out:

1336223
1333241

With the second one being more interesting than the first ...

Well the 1st one ran on a GTX260 and you how well they go.

I'll leave GDF to comment on the 2nd one that ran on a GTX295. As you said "more interesting" :-)

Actually my GTX260s have been extraordinarily reliable and the errors very rare. I know that others are not that lucky ... but I "average" only one or two errors a month on any of my cards unless there is a bad batch ... in that until the last week or so, GPU Grid has been my sole project for CUDA cards that means I plow through a lot of tasks ... more so when you consider that I have two of them ...

The second one is odd. It could be an error in the input, but the same wu has already been run successfully up to step 4, so it cannot be.

Well, with luck the next guy will run it through ... in that I have 4 tasks running on that machine all the time it is odd that only the one crashed...

Just thought I would tell you ... :)

Heere is another, task 1341055 where it failed oddly late in the game.

This is getting expensive... :(
