All of this was due to hardware instability. Case closed.

The Ryzen 3100-based PC was unstable even after I replaced the AMD 550 RX with Nvidia 1660 Super. Instability would show itself as an unexpected reset, once a day. I root-caused it to a high FCLK: was 1800MHz unstable, 1766MHz still unstable but better, 1733MHz stable. I am now running the AMD 550 R...

At night, I run both CPU and GPU, and during the day, GPU only. I think that doesn't matter, but I can't be 100% sure, so will try this, will pay attention to it.

It's running on an SSD with plenty of free space. It's Microsoft's defaults. On that computer I have a fresh install of Windows, default AV. Not doing much besides folding. One free CPU thread can be seen in Process Explorer/System Information when GPU is actively engaged in folding. Two free CPU th...

1) If WU times out or expires, should that not show on the WU status page, same as when it fails? 2) I'd be interested to see if I'm the only one with such an issue, GPU stopping and failing to make any progress toward finishing the WU - if so, should I RMA the GPU card, or report this as software b...

This GPU slot can and does complete WUs. It just finished a WU. 22:56:39:WU00:FS01:0x22:Completed 830000 out of 1000000 steps (83%) ******************************* Date: 2020-07-22 ******************************* etc.etc. 01:46:22:WU00:FS01:0x22:Completed 980000 out of 1000000 steps (98%) 01:57:38:W...

I have FAHCore_A22 at below normal priority, and FAHCore_A07 at idle. Only 6 of 8 threads are assigned.

The point of this posting is to highlight the simple fact that there are many WUs that leave me no choice but to drop them. This gives no opportunity for developers to address the issue, as my dropping the WUs doesn't register on the WU Status page. I now have a few such WUs sitting on my desktop, a...

As I've mentioned, I've retained the WU folders, willing to assist in debugging the issue.

Here's what it looks like from GPU-Z, GPU load perspective.
The nearly-no-load on left represent the WU I just dumpt.
The all-the-way-load on right represents the newly downloaded WU.

I need to dump 13418 (Run 382, Clone 17, Gen 3). The 13416/1140/293/1 was dumped a little while back.

So how should I dump this WU then? 10:52:42:WU00:FS01:Starting 10:52:42:WU00:FS01:Running FahCore: "C:\Program Files (x86)\FAHClient/FAHCoreWrapper.exe" C:\Users\GregC\AppData\Roaming\FAHClient\cores/cores.foldingathome.org/win/64bit/22-0.0.11/Core_22.fah/FahCore_22.exe -dir 00 -suffix 01 ...

This WU is estimated to finish in 10 days. https://apps.foldingathome.org/wu#project=13416&run=1140&clone=293&gen=1 I have stable hardware, but saved off and gave up on the WU after 6%. TPF is a reliable 2 hours and 22 minutes for each percent marker. I'm re-posting from Discord, extende...

I was the fifth donor failing this work unit.

By the way, one of the older threads is talking about same error under Linux, my use case is Windows.
