Project: 7646 (Run 4, Clone 4, Gen 34)

Just had to throw in the towel on this unit.

It seems to run ok, until the screen is turned off (manually or power-save).
As soon as that happens, the system freezes.
Not sure if it's an error with the workunit or my machine.
My machine has never done that before, so it may be something to keep
an eye on - if other users report the same issue.

system is win 7 64 bit, i7 2600k @ 4.5/8 gig ram 1600Mhz

cheers
Simba

There are older Nvidia drivers that have problems with power saving. They did fix that problem with recent drivers but that really only created problems for the GPU client not the SMP client. So I really don't know what is going on but manually turning off your monitor should not affect any WU. The problem is very peculiar.

So far no data has yet returned from that WU.

3xx.xx drivers and above fixed the power save crash problem with fah and NV.

Are there any indications in FAH's log that the system froze (other than ending abruptly)?

After rebooting, does FAH resume work on the same WU or does it download a new one? (Please post the logs.)

7im - my Nvidia drivers are 301.42

I'm also having problems contacting the servers - additional post - viewtopic.php?f=18&t=22556

Bruce, the system just freezes. After a reboot, FAH continued on the same unit from last checkpoint.

Because you can cause this by simply turning off the monitor, the more I think about it, the more I think you have a power issue. It is the only thing I can think of that would affect your CPU upon manually turning off your monitor. Whenever something gets turned on or off there will be a minor voltage change and a voltage spike in the same circuit and I would speculate that that is causing problems with your power supply. Normally, the back channel communication from your monitor back through the video cables to your video card is insignificant. It does exist, but it has a very limited in function that is only used by the video card drivers, so I discount it.

If you have a secondary monitor you could use for testing purposes, I'd swap it. You can't tell if the problem is the monitor causing power problems vs. the power supply being very sensitive and it could be a combination of both. Next is swapping out the power supply. You can also lessen any effect the monitor has on the computer circuit by making sure that it is being powered using a different circuit breaker than the computer (Using an extension cord).

If the monitor happens to be one of the old ("ancient"?) CRT types, they generated significant magnetic fields, especially when turning on or off at the wrong phase of your power and if it was too close to the CPU, there wouldn't need to be any electrical spikes getting through your UPS. (You are using a UPS, right?)

If you've got a more modern monitor, forget this idea.

no CRT. BENQ FP222W Lcd screen.

Interestingly, after stopping the P7646, it eventually did get more SMP work, and again eventually uploaded it, but
simply would not - as you can see from the logs - get any GPU work.

That hanging of the system only occurred when I turned the screen off when the P7646 was running.
other workunits since that one (P8008 & P8065) do not crash when I turn the screen off.

Additionally, after another user suggested connection issues, even though I had turned my firewall off (Zonealarm)
I decided to delete it. After rebooting and disabling Windows Firewall, I was able to get GPU work straight away.

So it seems that something funky was/is going on with this system.
Thanks for your help. I'm going to leave it run for a bit and see what the next upload brings,
then re-install the firewalls and see if I can find out what the heck is/was going on.

Still don't know what was causing the P7646 to crash when the screen was turned off.
Gremlins have invaded methinks.

Zonealarm most definately can block FAH from downloading. You have to grant exceptions every time you reinstall FAHClient but I can't say for certain that was your problem.

Does your power supply have enough 12v amps to run everything comfortably?

Thanks Bruce. Power is not the issue. I think it ended up being Windows Firewall turning itself on and blocking the A4 core.
This happened multiple times; I'd disable it, then check again 10 minutes later and it had turned itself back on again :/
Well that was the communication issue. As for the system hanging etc, i have no idea. It has not occurred again, so it
was either something unique to that particular workunit that was running, or a message from aliens.
either way, everything seems to be running again.

Thanks again,

Windows firewall should not be an issue. It's not as sophisticated as ZA and if you grant an exception the first time it gives you a pop-up, you don't have to worry about it again. I run with it all the time. (I'm not dis'ing Zone Alarm. It's got some really nice features if you want higher security than the Windows firewall provides. You just have to grant a new exception every time you upgrade software.)
