I have put some workunits on the beta queue. The task is to check if the current beta application works at all, as we have changed the build environment to Window7.

Didn't watch them run so can't add anything. Maybe slightly longer (10 or 20min) WU's would allow for observations.

ok. I have added 200 WU now.

As far as I know on the correct driver for windows this app should work on gtx780 and Titans.
Without the patched Nvidia driver, you should see it starting fine and crashing along the way.

Only 200 WU, my computer downloaded 117 of these units, and completed all of them without any errors. Of course, the video card is a 690. Should I change my preferences to exclude betas and test application?

Good idea, no point in people without a GTX780 or Titan using up all the WU's.
I've opted out for a while, then updated to the beta drivers on Win, and also ran a few when the Linux WU's turned up.

Recommended Drivers for Titan and GTX 780 GPU's:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-325.15-driver.html

I have done it. I am no longer testing betas or running test application.

I would suggest that scientists let us know ahead of time, when they are running betas as to the type of system ( card type, operating system, etc.) that they are looking for, and give us the opportunity to adjust our preferences accordingly, especially if we are out and about and can't do this immediately.

Message 31951 - Posted: 11 Aug 2013 | 15:07:54 UTC - in response to Message 31939.

On Linux (304.88 driver) these Test WU's run OK on GK104 and GF110 cards.
On Windows I've tested with recent drivers and the latest Beta (but again only on GK104 cards, not a Titan or GTX780).

These Test apps (v6.53 for Windows and v6.49 for Linux) still say cuda42, not 5.5.
Would CUDA 5.5 with the latest drivers bring any performance/stability improvement?

I could not see anyone with gtx780 or titan to run on the beta queue.
Could you please try?

Anyone else having problems with it?

The one I received on my 660TI XP machine failed after 1 second. I was able to complete one successfully a while back when running the same 660TI with Linux but I'm not able to switch back to Linux at this time. I will opt out until I can switch back.

On another note, FWIW I have had no WU failures on any flavor of the long run tasks since I switched back to the 310.90 drivers.

Just set up my Titan video card computer set up to accept only GPUGRID.net beta's. No tasks are currently available.
