I searched this forum and no direct answer was found, so I made this new thread. Just that GTX295 is still "recomended card". | |

you need to get it using only cuda 3.1. on windows install the 285 drivers, or on Linux install the 296 drivers. | |

Thanks, that worked. Linux v296 drivers have Cuda42, after installing driver v285 GPUGRID is finally crunching. I have two more questions: | |

As far as I understand the problem is related to bugs - so it's not ruled out they'll get fixed by nVidia in future drivers and/or CUDA versions. But I wouldn't count on it.. these cards are getting old, from the viewpoint of nVidia there are no further sales to be gained by better supporting them. | |

We have suggested to the project admins that they leave the short queue running cuda 31. The beta and long queues are likely to become cuda 42 only. | |

Leaving short queue as Cuda 31 seems to me as good idea. Older cards can still contribute. May I suggest a new thread containing frequently occured task error numbers. When I had this issue, searching up for error 247 would be good enought for me, I would install drivers v285 right away. | |

I have a couple of GTX 275 running on x64 Linux with 295.40 drivers. | |

Sorry, I spoke too soon. There must be a couple of cuda31 long units from an old queue that I've got after New Year. | |
