I don't look at this much. But i saw that GPUGRID had run a couple units, yet i got no credit. Under "tasks", i have a number of units that say Error while computing. I looked at stdoutdae.txt, and the most recent GPUGRID entry is this:

I'm on Linux, so i searched for 'absent' in stdoutdae.txt, and got 415 lines like that since 18 May 2014. I've gotten plenty of credit from GPUGRID over these months, so not everything could be broken. There seem to be four files per unit, so that's over 100 units. Ouch. I looked to see if i have any disk free issues, and i have 4.5 GB free on the partition where these files go. The BOINC manager agrees on disk space. It's the most recent BOINC manager - 7.2.42 (x64). Some recent applications include these:

Computer ID 170278

CPU and run time are showing zero for lots of these failed units. So, maybe these units didn't actually run.

It seems to me as a driver issue, as only the CUDA 6.0 tasks failing on your host, the CUDA 4.2 tasks working fine.
See the Important news for Linux Crunchers thread.
