No fireworks? It's over, right?

Two possible solutions.
Either you run 2 or more units in parallel:
<coproc>
<type>CUDA</type>
<count>0.5</count>
</coproc>

...

I changed to running 2 units in parallel.
This works :)

Thanks

No problems with workfetch but with validation.
We may have the ongoing problem that all WU's with a CPU-time
equal or below 3.00 seconds are marked as invalid

Valid

I wrote another app_info for Win32 and according to "NullCoding"

Thanks for that.
I checked my one app-info on another system and it works without any problem.

But I'm not able to test it on FERMI based cards - due to a lack of hardware :(

I'll check my own app_info and provided informations on my main system tomorrow.

I set it (crunching PPS-CUDA) on no new work.

I'll follow my own descriptions to get it to run.

@NullCoding

A tough going - congratulations on your success :)

It is CWPSieve CUDA testing

I'm a tester since years and was acting "desperately" many times.
If you are looking for "smooth crunching" you are wrong at a testing projekt.

This is the whole content of my www.primegrid.com folder

For crunching gcwsieve you need:

app_info.xml
cwpsieve-cuda-boinc-x86-windows.exe
gcwsieve_20110101.sieveinput_in
gcwsieve_1250180098.sieveinput_in
ppconfig.txt
cudart.dll

Your BM is not requesting tasks.

1. Stop all other GPU-Projects in BM
2. Reset Primegrid
3. Stop BM
4: Copy the needed files in "www.primegrid.com" folder
5. Start BM

Take a look at http://www.primegrid.com/apps.php.
I think version number should be 112 for "Microsoft Windows running on an AMD x86_64 or Intel EM64T CPU" and 101 for "Microsoft Windows (98 or later) running on an Intel x86-compatible CPU"...

In my first app_info I used the version number 112, but in BM the Version Number was shown as 019 - so I changed it.

Current I run it with version number 019 - but in BM is shown 0.01

Doesn't matter for work-fetch (Win Vista, 9800GT, BM 6.10.58)
