Default 8-series GPU2 Driver Errors?
Seems a few people besides me have been having trouble finishing WU's on 8600's. It's been happening to me over a week now and it's turning my ~1700 PPD card into a 0 PPD brick! Well I'm gonna try rolling back to older drivers or maybe get the latest CUDA driver and see what happens.

Assuming this doesn't work anyone got any ideas on whats nuking my WU's?

-P.S. my 9600 GSO folds just fine in the same rig and the 8600 GT gives the same error in any of my rigs.
-P.P.S. It's not overclocked.

EDIT: Solved
When updating to the latest FahCore_11 all of my problems went away. It also cut the potential PPD in half, but when you're not finishing WU's potential points are worthless!

Well I rolled back to the CUDA drivers and all seems well. I'll let it run overnight and check the log in the AM.

This was the error until it stops for 24 hrs due to too many unstable machines errors.

I had really good success with the 177.35 driver + the INF file with my 8600GT.

I found a solution to my 8600GT problem. It's the fahcore_11.exe

They released a new version. Check in the f@h forums under the Nvidia section. You can download it there.

I can finally complete units now, but my PPD has dropped. GUess they disabled somethings to help for now until they find the real fix.

So the latest CUDA drivers didn't work... onto the other solutions!

I'll look into that driver but what INF file are you referring to?

I have an XFX 8600GT currently just rotting away as i'm going to format the PC to make it a full fledged Farming rig. It got around 1.3k ppd finished WU's and everything. I think it was running the drivers before the latest.
