There were 6 in a row. They included projects 2425,2426, & 2427 which are new. They all ended in the Quit 101-Fatal error: NaN detected: (ener[13]). After the first couple I blew out the dust but that didn’t help. I have run all the cpu and memory stress test with no problems. It must the new work units, like you said. I will delete the existing work file and see what happens.

Now if I could just use my Nvidia 8800 to fold on my other pc. I am starting to doubt that it will ever be supported.

Yeah, the new 2425, 2426 and 2427 are all getting out of range errors.

Nan means “not a Number”, essentially infinity. Some NaNs are normal. A long string of them could indicate a failing component, often memory.

Every post I saw on a couple of forums referred to the NaN occurring when overclocking on these work units.

A long tine folder recommends using StressCPU2, since it uses GROMACS to abuse the CPU. If it can handle StressCPU2, then it can handle F@H.

I used to have stacks of nVidia cards but switched mostly to ATI for the folding. nVidia is finally working with F@H but it is still many months out.
