Sheesh - that's at least two releases in a row now.  Think I'll just stick with what works here (esp. with the TZC coming up)

Well that's nice to know. Makes sense now when I started folding for the challenge last night that my rig would start and stop on WU's. Then after 8 hours of thinking its running, shows "Failed" instead. Going back to 373.06 myself.

So far I got no problems with this release on a GTX 1060 6GB but I have to finish another WU to see if the PPD are as good as in the 372.90 release which seemed best for me. The releases after 372.90 seem to induce lag on mouse when the folding is on and I'm on plain desktop but working fine when browsing.

I am not seeing any new updates from your computer http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=438176
6pm yesterday was the last Completed WU.

WTH? Finished at least one WU today and a little while ago when I've returned home I've seen the client stopped with an exclamation mark and then I've turned off the client without checking the logs. I'll roll back to 372.90 and start again.

OK keep us posted, you are showing point now as well.

373.06 is the one to use.
Everyone reverted back to this, I do not run Linux, but would be the same one I guess...

Almost 9h for current WU! Also noticed that my PPD went down, with the same drivers-372.90, with about 65k.

That is why we said for Folding use Driver 373.06.
Did you have any Failed WU?

None so far. I've reverted to 372.90 because with them I got stability, no black screen or small freeze. I think the PPD dropped because of the current WU which still has around 5 hours to complete.

hotfix drivers, but they don't mention Folding @ home being addressed.
 
anyone want to risk giving it a go? /evil laugh

GeForce Hot Fix driver version 375.76 Are you going to Test For Us?
       Occasional flicker on high refresh rate monitors
       Artifacts in GIFs
 
Noting about Folding Work Units as you said.

I tested it! 
Seems to increase PPD by 5% over 373.06!
Highly recommend the Eastern Mountain Alliance to promptly switch to it to maintain their lead!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Wait! What!?  This was not real!  Please continue with your regularly scheduled Fold!

Tomorrow morning I'll go on a trip for two days with my son and it is possible that at some point my client will crash...so I will be a little behind if that happens.

Are you doing a clean install, using DDU to uninstall, then install the 373.06??


Always doing a clean install using DDU! With the 373.06 I get black screen from time to time.

You know that Black Screen issue my be due to not using a VESA CERTIFIED DP Cable.

Never had a problem with previous card - GTX 770. Cable used is a HDMI to HDMI with gold plated connectors on a 32" TV.

Hmm, A 32inch TV, or monitor??
 
I have found that TV's rather than Monitors are not able to accept computer inputs, and go out of range. Maybe the reason for the black screens....
Do you have a monitor to test with??

A 32" smart TV Philips model 32PFL3258H/12 but as I stated before I haven't encountered black screen situations with the 372.90 driver. The card is working fine, I've done a 24h folding round without a single problem even the PPD seemed a little lower but that could be due to a number of reasons:
1.) Motherboard BIOS update from 1.4 to 1.5 then to 1.6
2.) W10 update(s)
3.) Other software updates
4.) Setting in Folding client the parameter "advanced "
My initial GTX 1060/6GB testing resulted in around 480K PPD/day report then after doing all the above steps noticed a decrease in PPD.
But since the contest started I haven't made any more changes because I lost enough PPD...so I'll do what I can to keep my initial estimated PPD.
