A friend would like to let run WUProp WUs in his BOINC. He tested it - the CPU temp increased and later the PC was frozen. It's a known problem that WUProp don't run on AMD CPUs? What could be the problem that the WU don't run? Thanks. ![]() |

I run WuProp on a quite old AMD CPU with no problems and I'm sure there are plenty of WuProp users running with more current AMD CPU's. WuProp uses VIRTUALLY NO CPU (runs as a backround/Non-Compute-Intensive [NCI] BOINC task) or RAM. Something else is causing the problem. Can you post a link to friend's problematic AMD host? ![]() ![]() |

I have 4 AMD computers currently running WUProp and they all have no trouble doing so. As Dr Who Fan says this project uses virtually no CPU at all only a low number of seconds in a 6 hour run time. What else is this friend running on their computer? Conan |
