No one knows how to help? Someone has to know with all the crunchers in here....Iv already searched online too and didnt find anything useful...

[akarobo99]

I'm guessing you have but have you tried this link?
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/Error/Scheduler%20request%20failed

I've seen it once on a windows based machine and it was the clock/date after a bios update. Another on a linux and it was adding the bundle file it describes I believe.

[Timlander]

Oh i thought I had the date right but it was set to 2008 and not 2009. Also, how do i set it to use all 4 cores 90%? cause it is using 1 core @100% right now. Now it is doing this:

[akarobo99]

Click advanced then on preferences and in processor tab set 100% on multiprocessor system and set cpu time at 90%

[Timlander]

Alright, but how do I get this thing to start back up now? It just sais retry in 2,000 seconds or whatever...

[akarobo99]

Try suspending on the projects page and closing it out completely and then restarting boinc. Works for me when it gets lost. When you restart it click resume on the projects page and it should do what it needs to do. Or try clicking update on the projects page.

[Timlander]

Ok tried all that, nothing worked, restarted computer, now this is what I get:

How do i reset when it retries? I want it to retry like every 5 sec not 2,000

[Timlander]

Ok I think I got it now. I retried on all the downloads again and this time it actually worked. Again how can i reset that timer down to like 5 sec or whatever?

http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u73/Timlander/wcs.jpg

[akarobo99]

I dont know about resetting the timer but I do know if my cpu or memory usage is set too high it has a hard time downloading a lot of work units. I run the cpu at 90 and the memory at about 75 most of the time and don't hve probs anymore with connection. Hope that helps.

[Baleful]

To reset the "timer", click on the Projects tab, Select the project (World Community Grid), then click the update button. It will probably defer the update for like 59 seconds or something, but after that it'll update on it's own.

[Timlander]

Im almost done with my first work order for today. =) And 50C load temp after about 5 hours 100% stressed cores on the 140Watt 9950 with stock cooler, not bad. =)

Awesome! :up:

[rubidium]

Cool to see your rig putting it out this well. :)

Is that good? How can i tell what my PPD is? What is a good number of PPD for a quad core to get? Its at stock clocks/heatsink btw.

You need to do some sustained running for a few days to see your real PPD. Many of your completed applications are building up in the "pending validation" queue. At some point, the number entering that queue will on average equal the number that get validated, and you'll be able to reach a steady-state PPD average. In your BOINC manager, hit the "statistics" tab and then "show user average" button. You'll see your average rise over time and then flatten off.

Ah ok, cool. I just checked out the graph. My world community stats page sais as of right now sais I have 2,715 points for 1 day and 1 hour of work. Also, how do i copy/paste the point bar into my sig? Where do I get the link for it?
