I recently moved that card from my fast overclocked machine to my stable one because I was getting computational errors on all the s6 gravitational Wu's the error followed the card. The video card works great for seti and milkyway@home and it passes all memory and stress testing without a hickup so i have to wonder if it is in your code somehow. It is a geforce GT520 PCI express 2.0 with 2gb of ddr3 memory running at standard settings. Could the 2gb be a problem? It is the only video card i have with over a gig of memory and it is the only one i have had a problem with running the s6 stuff.

for the moment i just turned off the use nvidia setting so i can get some work instead of maxing out my allotment on junk errors.

Possible bug with GT520 video card

Hi mxdog,

I have hit the same issue. When I remove the Geforce GTX550Ti the GW tasks complete, when the graphics card is present they error out within seconds. Which is amazing, because the GW tasks have nothing to do with GPU computing and I don't run BRP-CUDA tasks at the moment.

Please rejoin the other thread on this issue so that we can go bug hunting in one place:
