Lately, I keep getting computation errors on PPS-Sieve. I have completed them successfully before, but now I have 3 computation errors in a row. Is there anything I can do to lower the amount of errors I get? I'm running this on CPU. |

Maybe a GPU driver crash. I've seen this before. Just restart your computer. |

I'm running CPU tasks, not GPU. |

I've not tried PPS Sieve on CPU. Have you tried restarting anyway? |

I'm not sure. I'll try when I get home. Thanks! |

Well, I tried restarting and got another computation error. Any other tips/ideas? |

Try the usual suspects. Turn off over clocking. Blow the dust out of the computer. Make sure it's not overheating. Reseat the memory.

Bump your fan speeds up if you can.

Thanks for the advice; I'll try these tomorrow. Is there any reason only PPS-Sieve tasks are having computation errors? I don't think I've had any outside of the 4 on PPS-Sieve. |

In case anyone has the same problem I did, I finally got it fixed by resetting the project. The first PPS-Sieve task I got was valid, and I haven't had any other problems yet. |
