BY the way, the Windows application is only in alpha testing. We have uploaded it to have some extra tests without advertising it yet.
Same procedure as for Linux, just install the drivers from the Nvidia website and use the client version 6.3.8.

Your machine computed successfully only once in so many attempts. Have you installed the latest Nvidia driver from the Nvidia website?

EDIT> The G260 seems to have some driver problems in Linux according to other users.

One user fixed his Windows problems installing
MICROSOFT .NET FRAMEWORKS 2.0

Could you try? Maybe, we are missing a dll which is not normally available!??

No, it was just a quick attempt, as it did seem to fix it for this other user.

You should use the drivers from the cuda nvidia website, as indicated in the first page of ps3grid.

Hi

I installed older driver (177.35) and it seems to run fine for the moment

So, don't use the 177.83 :)

edit: Thanks you GDF ;)

Boincitaly have found a missing dll in our Windows application. It is a ddl which is likely present in any system but not a pristine installation. So, we will upload a new Windows application tonight which should fix the problem.
