Hi Everyone--I've been getting this error on all of my BRP runs. I've searched the forums and couldn't find a solution. Here's a snapshot from the event log for one of the jobs:

The only difference I see is that pc is using a newer version of Boinc then the others. Downgrading Boinc MIGHT fix it but WILL wipe out ALL units you currently have on that pc!
I don´t think so. I tried

I don´t think so. I tried several other versions of boinc client with the same result.
Nobody knows what the exit/error code means?

RE: Nobody knows what the
)
Not off hand, no. You can compare the (0xc0000374) value to a Windows exception error, though. In this case, the value translates to a STATUS_HEAP_CORRUPTION, which isn't too helpful. But searching through some threads at Microsoft's help desk, I did find that it happens when an application tries to write to non-existent memory, or when the memory it tries to write to is corrupted.
So that's the only thing I can give you, that the memory on that 6x00 is corrupt, broken or otherwise in problems. You can test this by putting another card in that machine, or moving that card to another machine and see what it does there.
Apropos Mikey,
Since when does up- or downgrading BOINC delete the data directory or affect any of the project's science applications? It doesn't.
Resetting the project does. Removing the project and adding it again does. But just trying out another BOINC version doesn't. :)
RE: Apropos

Is it not true if you downgrade from version 7 to version 6? I seem to remember something like that.
RE: Is it not true if you
)
Perhaps if you go back from BOINC 6 to BOINC 5, since 5 doesn't use a data directory (although it can, if you instruct it to). But both 6 and 7 use the data directory which stays in place when you update or downgrade BOINC.
RE: RE: Is it not true if
)
AFAIK, the client_state.xml file of BOINC 7 is not compatible with BOINC 6 and it was always advised to empty the cache before downgrading from 7 to 6... Has that changed?
No, I forgot about REC being
)
No, I forgot about REC being in 7 and debt being used in 6. But even then, I suppose with this project having resend lost work on, that any work lost will be resent.
Still, we're digressing far away from the point made by Mikey, that downgrading BOINC from any 7 to any other 7 will lose the work in cache, which isn't correct.
Does anybody know if there is

Does anybody know if there is an debug option for running einsteinbinary_BRP4_1.34_windows_x86_64__opencl-ati.exe, or can I start this program manually to see perhaps some more information about this error?
