Hi,

I think this is the third failure I've seen of this unit on different machines / accounts:

In addition, the console displayed the same fatal error and system is exploding message!

I suspect a bad WU?

Thanks

Just so others can help: is that all the log? Is your machine overclocked at all?

EDIT: Note that bad WU are automatically pulled from distribution if it has problems for three donors, so note this: viewtopic.php?f=59&t=19315#p192836 and this viewtopic.php?f=19&t=19325&p=192927&hilit=8am#p192927
