Here is my trouble. No one WU is finishes normally, there always are errors, each time at different running time.

May be someone knows what to do? Just downgrade videodriver to older version or there is more smart solvation? I heard that a lot of crunchers running well on Windows 7...

Hi!

I also had troubles with Windows 7 64bit and Nvidia drivers 185.xx. 186.xx and 190.xx on this host recently. Switching back to 181.71 seems to have solved the errors. Since I installed that driver (on July 19th) I haven't had any more computation errors...

I am running W7 64 with 186.18 and BOINC 6.6.37 on multiple machines without seeming to have problems.

I placed back one GTX295 inside both PCs so are now three inside each one with no computing errors problems,I guess there was a power problem?
I'm waiting for 1500W PSs to fit back the 4th cards.
