Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

but first I decided to go digging. And lo and behold, there's an error message stashed away in Event Viewer, highlightin igdrcl32.dll as a source of the problem. What's that? one of the DLLs for the Onboard UHD 630 Graphics. In other words, the onboard graphics driver seems to be getting in the way....

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

no, no change. v 20 found and downloaded and tested - nope.

I will go find a much earlier release of the 7.6 branch and test that.

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

this is my office at home and it's my personal machine :)

I am beginning to despise Nvidia and graphics drivers generally. I will go get the newest Nvidia - seems to be 457.30, released Monday - and update and see what happens.

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

nope, no dice. Everything was fine until last week or so. So far, then: v 7.6.21_x86 tested - nothing, installs, starts when pushed to do so by command line, but dies after "GPUs.txt". -v does not help. v 7.5.1_x86 tested. Gives a far more thorough logfile, but still does nothing. NVidia d...

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

so I created a config.xml using --configure. Added in the correct details. All good.. except it didn't help. log now says: C:\Users\bret\AppData\Roaming\FAHClient>more log.txt *********************** Log Started 2020-11-04T21:08:59Z *********************** 21:08:59:************************* Folding@...

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

No, 13 doesn't help. At least I now get a log.txt: *********************** Log Started 2020-11-04T14:03:20Z *********************** 14:03:20:Trying to access database... 14:03:20:Successfully acquired database lock 14:03:21:Downloading GPUs.txt from assign1.foldingathome.org:80 14:03:21:Connecting t...

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

Okay, so a fresh install.. spends forever on "Target was appended to PATH". I leave "start Folding@home" checked... and nothing. No FAHClient, no icon in the tray. C:\Program Files (x86)\FAHClient>FAHClient 11:25:08:Read GPUs.txt C:\Program Files (x86)\FAHClient> contents of %pro...

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

I'd had a new edit of config.xml as I have a GPU which wasn't recognised in the first place. The argument %programdata% vs %appdata% is one I'm familiar with through work :) I use multiple logins on this machine and not all are admin. I will check if there's another FAHClient directory somewhere, th...

Re: Win 10, v7.6.21 doesn't start

Same thing here. Everything was good... then it wasn't. Removed. Rebooted. Reinstalled, no dice. Removed the %appdata% directory after reboot, no dice. Older versions don't help. Running from the command line, only GPUs.txt gets read, nothing else. Changing the data directory to %programdata% hasn't...
