F@H Control gone awol

[SmoulderingCircuits]

It just crashed on me (running on my main rig, got a 'has stopped working' windows error) so I started it again and now most text is just [][][][][][][][][][][]s, any ideas what's wrong? All clocks are 100% stable, have been for months on end of folding.

Update, rebooted and installed latest Windows updates, now running the same 8004 SMP but both GPU clients have been lost (11293). There are eight clients in the work queue.

Click it for full size

- Think was just the same thing Ray had today in the P&B thread...

Lol. It was Imageshack playing up and not letting me fullsize it..

Hmm.. Nothing looks out of place? How is it running now?

 

[hmmblah]

Yeah, all looks good now from that screenshot. Lost WUs are inevitable really. At least they don't happen near as often now. Is it folding along like normal now?

Just a quickie, is anyone having upload problems lately? I think it's my broadband (just switched to Virgin, and typically there's cock-ups in my area on the first weekend), but just wanted to check. Got 5 units waiting to upload, and they all keep failing.

No problems at all with uploading ..

I'm having problems uploading to the 129.74.85.16 collection server. Isn't responding to ping either. Got 5 WUs waiting to upload.

I tried to reply earlier but the forums died on me. No problems sending work units here either.

The log for that server also suggests to me it should be working... although I'm not 100% sure what it all means lol

Sorry guys, was wondering where this thread went

It's done it twice more since, about once every day. Just stops working with a C++ error it says then have to reboot before it will work properly again without just going to [][][][][][][]s (which isn't instant, it goes gobbledy gook after about 10 seconds of launching F@H after a crash).

On a side note I see a good few PPDs have gone down since these 88pt SMPs have rolled out, maybe they have something to do with the crashes, no idea how...

Hmm. Are you using the GPU Tracker or the Console Clients?

F@H Control V7 x86 beta, no console

What version? If it's not the latest you might want to update to that.

Also you might want to double check your overclock stability.

I run the V7 client weeks on end with no problems.

I'd follow what Pickster has said, check your overclock (maybe even downclock for a few days to see if it helps?) and update the Client if you can?

another yes on that...

Latest V7 is 7.1.48

Latest V7 is 7.1.48

Will I lose my WUs if I update?

 

[stevehat1]

Will I lose my WUs if I update?

I didn't, just quit V7 and install the new version check "keep existing configuration" and it will start where it left off...

21 mins left on SMP, then I'll give it a go

Thanks again for the pointer

Update: running 7.1.48 now, was 7.1.38 before for the record
