The OpenCL section of the Nvidia 364.72 driver, and earlier 364.* drivers, has a problem which can cause an entire computer to lock up, or cause a few dozen OpenCL tasks (often not all from the same BOINC project) to give a quick Compute Error. Problem not seen in the 362.00 driver. Tasks from POEM@home seem the most likely to trigger this problem. Threads on the problem: https://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.php?id=6769#94223 http://boinc.fzk.de/poem/forum_thread.php?id=1205#10896 I have not yet seem this problem for any SETI@HOME tasks, but you might want to watch for it. |

I encountered the same problem, and set in mainboard bios the pcie bus fixed to ver. 2.0 , then no problems anymore. |

The 365.10 driver is now available, and does not fix that problem. |
