Did you restart your system?

You might want to update from Boinc 6.10.56 to 6.10.58.

If you messed up your cc_config file or other, delete them and restart.

What do the first 30 lines of your Boinc Manager messages say?

I'm running a GTX 560 so Fermi-class cards are supported. The error you got indicated cuda2.2 which I don't believe supports Fermi cards.

Is it possible that you have CUDA 2.2 toolkit installed on your system that may be inferring with the CUDA libraries in the GPUGRID project directory?

There's currently no good way to keep BOINC from asking for both CPU workunits and GPU workunits. GPUGRID doesn't offer any CPU workunits, and doesn't send back an especially reasonable error message when asked for one. Simply ignore any error messages from whenever BOINC asks GPUGRID for a CPU workunit.

Newer versions of the BOINC server software have the ability to send back separate minimum delays before asking that server for the next CPU workunit and before asking for the next GPU workunit. Could GPUGRID at least reduce this problem by setting the minimum delay before asking for any more CPU workunits to a high value? I believe nearly a week is the maximum.

I have no problem getting workunits to run correctly on my GTS450. Not sure yet if this will include the new long workunits, though. One has started, so I should soon find out.
