Hello!

I seem to be having an issue with WU 4743 which is P4743_lam5w_30. Up until no I have had no issues with the GPU client but it is hanging everytime on this WU. The log files says the following:

The display shows a large grey sphere with multicolor rings that appear to form the surface. Any help in fixing this would be appreciated..I'd like to get back to folding on the Visiontek HD 3870 oc edition.

Did You overclocked Your GPU?

Specifically I have not overclocked the GPU but the board is an "overclock edition". Without a core running it is currently 36C and when it runs a core it is about 56C. As I said earlier I've not had a problem until this particular project. Is there some way to "dump" this project and get another to test?

Do you use Vista ?

If yes, try to run the client in "XP compatibility" mode.

Yes, I'm running Vista Ultimate. Can you elaborate some on the XP compatibility mode? I have not run across that in any of the documentation but I will do a search shortly but knowing me help would be good!!

Well, I found a reference for running "XP compatibility mode" on the web, made the change to the application and WHAMO!! P4743_lam5w_300k is now running! Thanks for the help!
