Bad WU's

ive gotten about 6 work units all in a row in the past 15min that at some point along the processes came up as BAD_WORK_UNIT. This is starting to annoy me, is there something wrong on my end, or am i just incredibly unlucky?

You may have a bad core . What you need to do is go into the FAH directory and delete the fahcore_****.exe files( example FahCore_65.exe) along with queue.dat . Make sure you do this with the program closed .

Then restart the FAH program and it will download a fresh core then fresh work unit . I had to do that 2 days ago after 3 'bad units' in a row including a 19.7 point one which failed beyond halfway .

one of 2 possiblities: A you have a bad core and as before mentioned, you need to del the core and download a new one. the second and more common possibility is that your overclock is too high and is corrupting the wu's// try backing down your clock by one or two notches

odd that it would be either of those, ive had fah going nonstop for over a month now at the same clockspeed with no problems, but i will try your suggestions. Ill delete the core first then try backing off my o/c if that doesnt work (every MHz further i am from 2GHz makes me just a little sadder )

Good luck .

Same happened to me ........... i was folding nicely and then got 3 messed up units . This has not been a problem since I replaced the core .
