Hello,

I've tried resetting the project but alas all new tasks won't start and I don't know why.
I'm using boinc 6.4.6 and I've a Nvidia 8600 GT.

It worked fine for weeks.

any idea?

In fact, this morning, I updated today to Boinc 6.4.7 (for windows) and it works fine now!
It's the new recommended version.

version 6.5.0? I didn't see it for download.

Thanks

You have to go to the "master list" of downloads. The easiest way to get there is to copy the link shown, paste it in the link box in your browser and erase the file name listed, then hit return ... the link will look like it ends in "/dl/" if you do it right. This lists EVERY version of BOINC released. Find the appropriate file name and download the appropriate file.

If you feel REAL adventurous, you can hazard the latest development version. Reading the change logs it does look like they are zeroing in on a version that may actually support GPUs well ... as always, remember, using a version other than what UCB or a project recommends is at your own risk.

. . . but alas all new tasks won't start and I don't know why.

This problem occurs now and then on my PCs as well. Up to now restarting BOINC always helped.
