Hi teammate! ;)

All your last tasks show the "out of memory" error like described in this forum thread.
A reboot usually fixes the problem, which seems only to appear on XP64 systems. Which Nvidia drivers are you using?

Hi stefan.
Now I'll reboot the computer.
It is quite curious the fact that the previous WUs were all OK and only the last ones aborted such a way.
Now also I will reinstall the drivers from the original CD.

OK Stefan.
After a reboot all is OK.

Thanks a lot

You'll need to Re-Boot your Computer at least every other day if your running a Win XP 64-Bit OS, once a day is best or you'll get the error again and you don't never know when it will pop up either. It can be right in the middle or toeard the end of a Wu when it can happen & you'll lose the Credits then for that Wu.

I can say that all sounds a bit strange.

When those things happened, the PC was rebooted about 12 hours before, and the last WU ended some days ago

The Memory Error can happen sooner if your Starting & Stopping BOINC a lot, every time you shut off BOINC & Start it again the Video Memory Increases by the same amount as if you ran a whole Wu ...

I would guess it's a driver problem, because it is only with XP64...
