Project: 6512 (Run 10, Clone 160, Gen 58) EUE

[GreyWhiskers]

Another EUE "Gromacs cannot continue further". This is two in a row on my HP a475c running a standard CPU Systray client, secondary to running a GPU client on my HD4670 AGP. I've been running the GPU client since the first of August 2010 on the HD4670 with no issues other than an odd HW instability when I try to overclock too much, but it's been stable for months now. I've not had any hardware issues with the CPU client, which I've been running for about a month now with some 35 successful work units (I know - pretty pitiful production - but I can get about one WU a day from the CPU for free - about 80 points - with no affect at all on the 1240 or so PPD for the GPU client)

As I said, it's two in a row for the standard CPU client - but with different WUs - the other EUE was on Project: 6509 (Run 15, Clone 48, Gen 51).

Hi GreyWhiskers (team 0),
Your WU (P6512 R10 C160 G58) was added to the stats database on 2010-12-21 05:03:34 for 29.14 points of credit.

Yours is the second EUE. We'll keep an eye on it to see if we can make a determination about this WU. Thank you for reporting.

Five EUEs and then someone managed to complete it successfully.

[GreyWhiskers]

I wonder what is the difference between the system that managed to complete this WU and those of ours that weren't able to complete it.
