Hundreds of errored tasks, all the same error

(moderation:
I'm currently using BOINC 7.20.2 and running Einstein@home and Milkyway@home. My computer consists of:
Ryzen 5800X
MSI X570 Gaming Edge Wifi
32GB DDR4 3600
Radeon 6800XT
Seasonic 750w 80+ platinum
Most recent Windows 10 update
BIOS version from January 2021
AMD graphics drivers from December 2021
Custom water cooled setup
The computer starts and runs Einstein fine. There are never any crashes. However in the process of troubleshooting my other computer in a different thread, it was noticed that this computer has hundreds of errors. 259 errors to be exact, and they are all the same. They all involve the application: multi directional wave search on O3 (GPU). Open any of the tasks and they all have the same exit status: 1057 (0x00000421) Unknown error code. The stderr output is the same except for date and time:
The account name is invalid or does not exist, or the password is invalid for the account name specified. (0x421) - exit code 1057 (0x421)
It was mentioned in my other thread that this could be a storage issue. I currently have the BOINC application installed on my boot drive, an older 480GB Intel sata SSD. The BOINC data folder is on a new Western Digital Blue 7200 rpm 2TB drive. No other application is having storage issues as far as I know. I have steam games on both drives and everything works fine. Since it's the GPU task that keeps failing could this be a simple driver issue? The computer is used primarily for gaming and it's perfectly stable in that regard.

Well after searching for a few minutes it looks like I'm not the only one and the team is aware:

I'll keep an eye on my newly fixed 5800X3D machine and see if it throws the same error since it's running Einstein again.

Yes, I believe this is just an error with the Windows O3MDF application. The Linux app works fine.
You could switch over to either the FGRPB1G or BRP7 gpu tasks to prove the host is stable with the same hardware that won't run the O3MDF tasks. If no errors, then you don't have to do anything with the hardware other than wait for the admin devs to fix the app.
Or move to another sub-campaign in the meantime.

Good morning
Built a new rig and have Bonic running on it now and have added just added Einstein@home back on and getting lots of work units. Seem to be getting a lot of "computation error" on "multi-directional gravitational wave search on O3". Been getting a LOT of them and at the 6-7 second mark. Is this something on my side that needs to be changed?
My new setup:
12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900KF [Family 6 Model 151 Stepping 2]
(24 processors)
Professional x64 Edition, (10.00.22621.00)
Cheers!

No it's not you it's the Windows app and the Admins are working on it, turn off the O3 app and instead run the GRP#1 app and you will be good until they fix the O3 app. Here is what Gary Roberts said to do as well:
"Check account -> prefs -> project to make sure the setting for "Allow non-preferred apps:" is set to 'No'."
