Running the HCC GPU and CPU wu's only seems to be doing well (8 GPU wu's on 4 cores plus 4 CPU wu's on the other 4 cores). I think I can hit close 100k ppd on the rig with this setup!
![]() The 7870 is just a bit laggy when using the TV tuner but otherwise the rig runs fine and is actually 4-5C cooler than running with all CPU wu's

What is WCG and I have crossfire so do I need to do anything special?
WCG website will not load for me.

Basically, it's disctributed computing. If you decide to take the plunge, it helps to turn crossfire off for stability.

Nope, BOINC is intelligent enough to work around CFX being enabled however I did notice a little boost in performance when I disable CFX. I don't like turning it on and off all the time so I just leave it on.
I think it is time for me to run multiple WUs on my 6870s. I have a feeling that I can at least double my output. Edit: So I reinstalled BOINC, threw my app_info.xml file in and now I'm not getting any projects at all. Communication is being established but it isn't getting anything new. I am getting some "File referenced in app_info.xml does not exist: <name of task>" errors, but I would assume that is because no projects have been downloaded yet? Edit 2: I should have just read the OP and installed the version off WCG's website. Doh! Now stuff is almost ready to transfer but isn't. :| Any idea why this is happening? Code:
[error] No URL for file transfer of wcg_hcc1_img_7.05_windows_intelx86__ati_hcc1 [error] No URL for file transfer of hcckernel.cl.7.05 [error] No URL for file transfer of wcg_hcc1_img_7.05_windows_intelx86 Code:

Okay, here is the code that I just started running:

I have 8 WU's running with the CPU with this configuration, however none of the GPU WU's are running. Any ideas? Shouldn't there be 4 GPU WU's running?

Okay what does this refer to? "[error]No application found for task: windwos_intelx86 640; discarding"??????????
I have a bunch of these.

That means the server is sending you work that your app_info file isn't setup to do. You should log into the WCG page and make sure the profile you set for your computer has only the projects you setup in the app_info (which in this case I imagine is HCC). Whilst there, under the projects list there should be an option to process work on GPU (maybe that's why you weren't receiving GPU WU to crunch?)

This thread on XS has the code for the other projects: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...app_info-files I've not dabbed into it myself, but Norton I believe has set it up though with some problems on GFAM. Might be worth shooting him a PM?

Couldn't get it working. Tried a couple of times but I stepped away from it for a little while so I wouldn't keep throwing errors into my WCG file.
Switched to HCC cpu and gpu for now but I have an early Xmas gift coming that will allow me to keep my output up and try the All app_info again early next week

okay, added the app_info file from xtremesystems. I tweaked the HCC file. Seems to be working so far. Probably too early to tell for sure.
Under the projects tab though, my "work done" number does not seem to be changing or gaining? Even though it has completed about 20 or so work units. Is that normal?

Okay, I see what that is now. Took me a minute. Yea, I have 13 pages of "Pending Validation" going on! About 10 pages are from today alone.

Well, I got it working properly. It seems that you need to let the manager download at least one of all of the types of work units mentioned in the app_info file before you actually put the file into place.
