new tinkers and faulty work units.

since I have added the advmethods flag to the new 5.0 console I have this wierd problem. when I work on this new fatboy tinkers and I reboot windows when it starts back up I get a faulty work unit report and a brand new one is downloaded. Anybody else having this situation? Surely this isn't normal? I have absolutly no problems with ANYTHING else so i don't want to suspect my OC, which is wicked crazy.

I lost two so far but it's on a machine that I just put together this week so stability issues are a definite possibility. This is the only folder running FAH5.00 so I can't make a comparison. I use the verbosity flag and it writes a book when the wu fails. I can say though that my problems occurred after sending a gromac and recieving a new one. I had a spare Supertinker so I switched over and that's what I'm folding now. I was finally able to get a new gromacs downloaded but turned it off so that the Tinker gets the whole processor.

Not exactly the same...my plexi farm the servr and all clients have been having File-IO-Errors all day with proteins 724, 1024, 731...a lot of checksum erros..and of course the work currently completed was deleted so nothing was sent....this is on my Knoppix LTSP farm....sucks going 24 hours and not having good data....

No wonder I'm having a crappy day!

Paps

am begining to wonder about version 5

I went back to 4 due to the fact of having 3 error's on all 3 5.0 system's and now that I have been back to 4.0 I havn't got one error.
