5 times in a row got a "SHAKE violations on GPU" error precisely 3sec after the GUI server started up. (Some say this can be caused by overheating. The 4890's fan is set to 100% and temperatures don't seem to rise above 66C.) After restarting the client, it started right into another WU from project 5732 without incident.

Same here with 4870 1GB, but definitely not a temperature issue in my case.

EDIT: Vista SP1, Catalyst 9.5 (and no VPU recoveries on Vista)

I've seen a couple threads about 480x series running into this issue. Have you overclocked the cards?

You can experience an unstable machine with high overclocks even with low and stable temperatures >80c.

If clock speed is not the issue perhaps check if your voltages are adequate compared to other 480x cards.

[susato]

Thanks for the reports folks - the similar reports of early failures on otherwise stable rigs tend to point to the WU as the problem, rather than the hardware.

[DrSpalding]

You can add my machine to the pile on this WU as well. Same error: SHAKE violations on GPU.

Running Vista 64-bit with a ATI/AMD 48xx of some sort. Definitely not overclocked and the room temperature is 65°F this morning so I don't suspect any overheating issues. Never had any stability issues thus far with this pretty new rig.

[vladh4x0r]

Just got this work unit (P5745,R2,C34,G337), same experience as others - "SHAKE violations on GPU" 2-3 seconds after starting. This is on a secondary 4830 that crunched hundreds of other WUs so far with few complaints.
