ack! What the heck??

Just popped open FaH and I was on a new work unit, figured that was impossible since I was only away from computer 10min and last time I checked I was at 65%
Here is what the log file said.

It was a P909. I got another p909.

Did something go wrong??? It was doing frames at 00:05:01 so I *know* it didn't run out of time.

Help

Yep it didn't finish the first one. It was a a gromacs Work Unit and you might just not be stable enough for it. Try to back down the OC a notch and see if it helps . It is not uncomman to work on the same named Work Unit although they can be different even though they go by the same name

hrmm, I looked up further in log. It downloaded a new core right before this unit.
So your telling me a unit that has been rock steady on evertything(I have ran 3 different burn/stress testers on it with stretches of 72hrs+ with out an error, produced over 40 wu's) is now unsteady? Hrmmm, I think I'm pointing at the new core.

I'll keep a closer watch on the logs.

Certain gromacs are more sensitive. For a run of them not too long ago, I backed off about 50 MHz to keep stable. You might want to try that.
