I know this seems dumb of me, but I have not been doing much with Windows for a log time and as this is Windows 11 I have no idea where to type the Run command.
It is all over the place compared to Windows XP and 7.

So I can run it once I work out how. I will google it and then let you know.

copy the zip from BOINC to another local folder and run a batchfile

Running now, been going awhile

Conan

Edit:: Still running after 1/2 hour

Edit2:: Finished running a few minutes ago, but I was outside and did not see the finish.

Edit3:: Is there a file that has data about the test?

Can you run mfakto.exe -st ?


Whilst this test seemed to have run fine, I am still unable to run work units.

The Stderr output suggests that it can't work out what mt GPU is and suggests that I add it to the "mfakto.ini file.

I tried this a few times and even though I can change the file it reverts back minus the changes when I restart Boinc.
So it might have something to do with the mfakto.ini file being part of a zip type folder and so wont change because of that.

Suspended project at the moment to stop trashing work units.

Your selftest failed and it looks like it is a iGPU? If it dont we can try a short wrapper test outside BOINC.

Thanks rebirther, yes it is an iGPU in a laptop.

The laptop is running Gerasim and PRIVATE GFN GPU work units without an issue.

I thought it would work here though.

I am willing to try and get it working if it is not too much trouble for you.

Thanks
Conan

iGPU is not working correctly with the app, it is used by your laptop itself so it cant be shared.

Thanks rebirther, I will continue with CPU. and have another go at getting a 4060 working in another desktop I have.

Thanks

If you are a lucky owner of a 5080/90 post your runtimes here.

I recently got a RTX 5080, but I am getting computation errors. Here is part of the Std Out of a workunit:

CUDA version info
binary compiled for CUDA 12.0
CUDA runtime version 12.0
CUDA driver version 12.80

CUDA device info
name NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080
compute capability 12.0
max threads per block 1024
max shared memory per MP 102400 byte
number of multiprocessors 84
clock rate (CUDA cores) 2700MHz
memory clock rate: 15001MHz
memory bus width: 256 bit

Automatic parameters
threads per grid 688128
GPUSievePrimes (adjusted) 82486
GPUsieve minimum exponent 1055144

running a simple selftest...
ERROR: cudaGetLastError() returned 209: no kernel image is available for execution on the device
2025-04-05 17:07:18 (59080): mfaktc-win-64.exe exited; CPU time 0.015625
2025-04-05 17:07:18 (59080): app exit status: 0x1
2025-04-05 17:07:18 (59080): called boinc_finish(195)


I suspect there's an issue with compiling mfaktc-win-64. But no rush; I can work on other projects in the meantime.

You was the first one with a 50xx card.
