Folding Forum

I'm very new to folding and since ive started trying this about 24 hours ago, ive had about 5 identical complete graphics driver failures while folding. I believe about 4/5 of the crashes happened when there was a sudden increase in a load, usually when opening a new app or video or something similar. upon doing this, both of my monitors black out and my primary monitor flashes to life about 6 times then turns back on fully while the second stays off, meanwhile the fans on the gpu kick to 100% and Windows no longer recognizes either of my graphics cards in task manager. I have done some digging around on forums but I havent found a definitive solution (i think) yet. I have tried manually underclocking my 2060 since I assume that is the thing causing the problem. I considered turning off the cuda core folding, but I would rather have the speed gained by those cores, so that is a last resort. Last night I had thought it was a CPU issue which lead me to turning off the folding for it and leaving only my gpus to fold. Also, once overnight, while idle folding, the crash had happened again.

I assume that more information would be needed to diagnose this, so please tell me what info would help and I will find it and send it over.

just had a crash, logs in Fah were as following before attempting and failing to restart 9 times before i cut the cord and paused it:

[normal running]

[attempted restarts]

I have increased the TdrDelay to 60 and testing to see if that resolves the timeout error
edit: this seemed to make it so the drivers just became completely unresponsive on crash as opposed to restarting, reverting change

One of your GPUs doesn't seem stable ... did you run some stability tests ?

Did you try to start FAH on only one GPU at once ?

Is PSU powerful enough to feed both GPUs ?
