Re: Multiple Issues with AMD GPU Processing?

Unfortunately, I have removed the FAH software. I was going to try again in a few weeks. I went back to World Community Grid and Einstein at home. When I looked at the log file, I saw no indication of an error for that particular work unit. My only clue is that my Radeon control software (the icon i...

Re: Multiple Issues with AMD GPU Processing?

Well, I tried again and failed. I am NOT getting the sortShortList error. Unfortunately, my log file is gone (I exited the software after the error), but the job ran to 14%, then it crashed my radeon control software. The radeon software restarted, and the FAH log file showed nothing during all this...

Re: Multiple Issues with AMD GPU Processing?

I never thought about games not using OpenCL. Like you said, they probably use OpenGL or DirectX. I know that the benchmark program I used had OpenGL. However, I am sure that the other BONIC projects use OpenCL, but they may not use double precision, or the functions that folding at home uses. That ...

Re: Multiple Issues with AMD GPU Processing?

This happened with three different sets of AMD drivers (I am currently using 20.4.1). I may be dense, but if this is a driver problem, why do my other tasks (and games) work? This seems to be specific to Folding At Home. Just a thought. I am just trying to problem solve and not point fingers. I do n...

Re: Multiple Issues with AMD GPU Processing?

I just purchased a RX 570 (yes, I know it is not the fastest, but it is a good price). I can't seem to run it against any folding at home GPU tasks. The GPU will fail, fall back to a checkpoint, then eventually give up. It crashes my Radeon control software (which will start a new instance). One tim...

Re: NordVPN and getting work

No, I did not restart FAH after connecting.

It turns out that this is not going to matter. My (older) GPU is not supported, and there don't seem to any CPU only jobs.

I'd like to help, but it looks like I can't. I will go back to Science United and BOINC.

Thanks for the reply though

NordVPN and getting work

Hello,

I use NordVPN. When I have it turned on, it appears that folding at home cannot download work. If I turn it off, I seem to work just fine. Since I normally run with VPN turned on, this is a bit of an issue.

Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a fix I can try?
