Hi DrTeeth,

If you are talking about the GPU betas, I will take a shot in the dark here and ask: have you by any chance committed all your CPU cores to WCG and other projects? The reason why I ask is because even though these are supposed to be GPU WUs, they still need a CPU to be able to run. So, if you free a core, you should see progress.

If that's not the case, then you should probably post the beginning of your log and, if possible, the log of one of those WUs too. I may not be able to help any further, but that will definitely help other SMEs around here get to the solution faster.

Cheers!

Curiously, where the Ready to Start tasks (See Status column) in BOINC Manager shows --- in the Elapsed time column, the percent progress is set to 0.000%. May be better if that had printed --- too... no confusion, if that is where DrT is looking. Not likely though as then the Dr would have seen CPU tasks with 0.000% and no Elapsed time, which is the key question really... was there any time recorded for these Beta's [whatever they are, GPU or CPU]

The non-beta GPU units of data do not have this issue. The down side is that they CRIPPLE the graphics performance of my computer so that a right-clicked context menu no longer pops up, but glacially appears. Have had to disable my GPU for data processing.

Is there any way to run the CPU full time (the default values ensure that I cannot tell BOINC is running) and the GPU according to preferences? It does not seem to be the case, but I cannot be sure. ideally, I would like to run the GPU full time, but reduce the activity so it does not impinge on my regular use (just like the CPU).

Thanks
