Hi Folding folks

Just want to report that my folding machines are failing on a large number of WUs for some reason. They are all on GPU slots.

They are all on different versions of Windows 10, but all run 7.4.4 (tried the later version but had too many problems with my multiple GPU set ups)and have the latest nVidia driver ( 375.57). The main problem on one machine relates to a GTX 780 - but its companion 980 has had similar problems - it's just not showing that at the moment.

I observe for each machine frequent downloads of WUs, then the machine discarding them and trying another until finally the GPU slot fails.

I attach the log file from one of them:

BTW, I have stopped folding on my CPU slots as we are heading to summer and I want to reduce thermal overload.

Any suggestions?

See this topic - viewtopic.php?f=80&t=29276. You will need to roll back to an older version of the drivers, the 375.57 release was for gaming compatibility and seems to have broken OpenCL processing needed for folding.

Thanks, Joe_H,
So, back to 373.06? Just tried that on the affected machine - and it seems to work fine ...
Cheers

Just got my first Nvidia card yesterday and all it's done is crash my PC. I bought a used EVGA 980 Ti off eBay. I swapped out my RAM, updated my Samsung 840 EVO firmware, updated to latest MB BIOS, disabled onboard graphics. The PC was running fine before with any of several generations of AMD cards. I did a Safe Mode AMD driver clean using Guru-3D DDU. I started by trying the Nvidia 373.06 driver. Then I did a DDU clean and tried the 378.48 driver.

The article about Linux benchmarking 7im posted gave me the idea to look for a Windows video rendering benchmark program and I tried Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0 that moves through 25,000 frames of the tour of a floating village. My RX 480 breezed through it even with F@H 7.4.15 running at Full, a bit herky jerky.
FPS 36.5
Score 919
Min FPS 8.4
Max FPS 104.2
After quitting F@H:
FPS 97.8
Score 2463
Min FPS 15.8
Max FPS 170.1

The used 980 Ti crashed PC at scene 21 of 26.
When the PC crashes the blue SCREEN says: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Anyone know what this means

I've heard of Furmark and others. Any recommendations for assuring my graphics cards are suitable for folding

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL is certainly a sign of a driver problem but that also could be mimicked by a hardware problem. I'd recommend (A) a clean install of whichever driver version you choose: 373.06 or 376.48 followed by a reboot followed by a reinstall of FAHClient software.

It sounds like you've tried several recommended fixes. First, I'd like to look at your log to see what it says after you've taken those steps.

FAHBench is pretty versatile and it will normally give you a good indication if your GPU is set up properly to run FAH.

Did the gtx 980 ti fail in Heaven Benchmark while you were folding? In general your should not do folding and heavy gaming on the same GPU concurrently.

This is the 4th time I did a complete driver clean and install and F@H 7.4.15 stills makes bad WUs. I left it at 80% after an Express install and it's yet to crash, but it's only a matter of time. To be clear:
Uninstalled F@H 7.4.15 and deleted Apps/Roaming/FAHclient folder.
Uninstalled 376.48 using DDU, first it reboots in Safe Mode, then slected Nvidia clean (bottom button), then a driver clean (top button), rebooted.
Installed 376.48 Custom selecting only the graphics driver and not the 3d stuff or gexperience or physcalc.
Installed F@H 7.4.15 Express and let it launch.
Hopefully my 1070 arrives today and I can test PC with a Nvidia different card.

The GTX 980 Ti failed Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0 after a reboot sans loading F@H as I had deleted it's shortcut from my Startup folder. The RX 480 was already folding and I didn't really want to stop it and loose all the work back to some random checkpoints. I've never played one of those video games so I got curious and stopped F@H anyway to see had smooth my RX 480 did. One thing that's dramatically different between the AMD cards and the only, albeit defective, Nvidia card I've ever tried is that the AMD cards do not slow F@H down much even if an intense program is running simulataneously. The GTX 980 Ti slowed to a crawl when another program runs, about 20% of the estimated PPD as compared to before running the second program.

I DLed the 3.9 GB Furmark 3DMark-v2-2-3509.zip yesterday but it took over 5 hours. I'll install it and try it today.

How did you determine PPD? Specifically, how long did you wait while running the other program for the reported PPD to stabilize?

Did you record average frame times during those tests?

Was your monitor being driven by the AMD card or by the NVidia card?

I watched the Estimated PPD & TBF on the FAHControl/Status/Selected Work Unit panel. They changed dramatically after each 1% was completed. It never made more a few percent into a WU before the GTX 980 Ti crashed my PC. If you're interested I can test it the way you'd like after my 1070 arrives.

Nope, just anecdotal empirical observation that repeated several times.

Two different PCs one with an RX 480 droving its monitor and the other with a GTX 980 Ti driving its monitor.

Did you use AMD Cleanup tool to remove previous driver (and more specifically, AMD OpenCL platform that will remain to support CPU OpenCL) ? This might be conflicting with NV OpenCL platform ...

After running the AMD Cleanup tool, you'll have to reinstall the NV drivers, beacause AMD tool will get rif of all installed OpenCL platforms ...

I'm afraid that your used (which is important here) 980 Ti might be broken ... not running 3D apps/benchmarks is not a good sign ... do you see the fans spinning ? did you look at the GPU sensors with GPUZ while running your tests ? Is everything normal before crashing ?

No I used the Display Driver Utility (DDU 17.0.4.2) to remove AMD drivers. DDU seems to work fine for AMD drivers but my problem may have been using it to remove Nvidia drivers. I believe my original mistake may have been to install the latest Nvidia driver (lower than the 376.48 hotfix version). Then I uninstalled it using DDU and the not the Nvidia Uninstall routine in the Win7 Programs and Features. After I finally tried Nvidia's Uninstall utility and then reinstalled 376.48 it worked. I've since moved the 980 Ti to a much better MB (MSI 890FXA-GD70) and added two 1070s. They're all on 16x slots and I'm updating BIOS etc. The two new 1070s worked plug'n play style as expected.
