Noticed this while inspecting the log. Can anyone tell me what happened? Is this an error that would count against my 80% completion requirement for QRB?

"Server reports problem with unit." is typical of corrupted WU data, often seen on systems overclocked just a little too much. While this is the most common cause, it may not be the only cause. Getting a lot of these errors on this one box? Multiple errors would confirm the hardware issue. A single error is more likely a bad WU problem. A mod might check on the WU for you...

Oh, and the answer is yes. WU downloaded but not returned counts against the 80%.

Thanks for the answer. That was the machine's 3rd WU, both previous WUs completed successfully. Will kill F@H on it for now and recheck system for stability issues. Is the F@H stress testing utility any good? I only tried it once, but never got any results out of it as the PC was stable (verified through other stress testing). What kind of results should I expect from an unstable machine running the utility? Will it alert when errors are found?

Or should I just stick to good old Prime95?

Edit: Technically, the WU was returned to the server, and server reported an issue. Still count against QRB?

Nothing in the stats DB for this unit currently. This could very well be the reason for your previous issue.

Posted: **Thu Feb 09, 2012 7:05 am**

Thanks Mac. Definitely going to keep a close eye on things as I still haven't figured out what could've caused me to drop under 80%.
