You have to manually install them. It depends on your operating system and video card.

The optimized apps they have are only for windows and OSX (I'm not familiar with OSX).

If you are using windows...Can you tell me what operating system you are using, whether it is x86 or x64 and what video card you are using we can make sure you have the right drivers and make sure you download the right app and install it in the right place!

It' worth noting that the site claims these will auto install on windows, but when I did this a couple of weeks ago I found that not to be the case.

Sure,

I'm running Windowz 7 64 bit with an ATI Radeon 6870 card with the latest drivers for it. I grabbed the opencl app from that page for 64 bit and i put it in C:\Program Data\BOINC\projects\collatz\ but it didn't seem to recognize the apps as it did nothing with them

Trying to run Poem on GPU and DDM on CPU, but not working too well. Poem resists sending GPU WU's...

Wazzup with "this project is not the highest Priority"? I've seen that on a coupla projects. If not highest priority, you don't get work?

Poem GPU WU's are snapped up almost as fast as they're generated. You could try one of the auto updaters. I could never get them working for me. Rolling Eyes

I'll PM you when I remember where I put them. Confused

Im having a weird problem with my comps ATI Radeon 5670 gpu. It's not spinning up from idle clock speed (400MHz) to full speed (1000MHz) when shrubbing. Running boinc 7.0.42 with TThrottle and GPU-Z on win7 x64. This combo was working fine until this month... D:

Plomos,

C:\ProgramData\BOINC\projects\boinc.thesonntags.com_collatz

This should be your data directory. You have to be attached to collatz already before moving forward.

Make sure boinc is shut down when you install the files.

You did select:

I installed the latest AMD opencl sdk. POEM uses Opencl to run the ATI WU's so it works for that. But every time it tries to run collatz units it gets a computation error immediately

Do you have the newest drivers? Forum browsing in collatz shows that people have been having issues with WUs erroring out using the newest drivers (counter-intuitive, If I had an ATI card I'd walk myself through this before posting).

I've suspended MW and Prime To run only Colatz. #ni-1

And just added POEM. Not sure if it will use GPU or not but I did get a GPU unit. Only got 2 to start with. One CPU and one GPU. Will see how it does. If all is well I'll open it up for more.
Also have a problem. Colatz isn't showing on my list. Noticed it's cpid is different from my other projects. How can I fix that?

The whole site is very slow right now. Did finally get forum to load. Seems the server is out of disk space. Nobody is able to upload completed work and that nobody is around to fix the problem. Sad
