Super Pi Mod @ XS

[Xello]

Yes, there is something wrong. In Vista (64-bit only?), disable Windows Audio service, and then it will run fine. There is a script somewhere on this forum that will stop the audio service, run SuperPiMod XS, and restart Vista's audio service.

One assumes that the program is hooking into audio DirectX to detect cheating, but that it doesn't quite work with some Vista audio drivers. I get this issue too.

I ran the 32M and got "0h 10m 23.797s" (i7 @ 3660 (20x183), uncore @ 3302, 3 x 2GB DDR3-1464 @ 7-7-6-18-1T).

I had this bug at one point, i never had to stop that service but i did have to make sure there were no sounds playing during the calculation. This includes the chime that plays just as the "now start to calculate" box pops up, which meant at first i thought it was just crashing in general, but in fact if i waited a second til the chime sound ended then pressed ok it worked no problems.

I'm not sure if you can mute the sound or something and that works too, if not i guess stopping the service is needed for those longer calcs.

installed gimp so I could take a screenshot:

...

protip: hit the print screen ("Print Scrn" or "prnt scrn" or something related, near your F12/scroll lock buttons) at the screen you want to capture. go into paint and hit control-v.
save this screen, and youre done!

print screen saves what's on your screen onto your clipboard

(protip: convert to 256-color indexed no-dither with max png compression for 25kb screenshot.)

The best 32M score I saw on the web after couple minutes search was 9 minutes something seconds. Surely that's been beat though?

Ah, 8m25s over in the bandwidth forum here! @_@

I can't get my scored validated, it keeps saying checksum error, but I know I am typing it in correctly.

Validation hasn't been working for quite a while.

Hehehe I've had one where it runs normally for a few iterations then finishes, eg

1.222s
2.325s
3.438s
4.667s
5.843s
7.012s
7.012s
7.012s
7.012s...

Those were the days when the record was around 20s and I had an end time of 13s or something on air

@DomagojX: Known issue with Core i7, already captured on video (so you don`t have to upload^^): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-cZc7iEdkI
@Oj101: Yeah, already had that problem once: http://extreme.pcgameshardware.de/at..._155732310.jpg (E6600, Striker Extreme, XP x86) - probably caused by too tight RAM latencies)

That's exactly it, but mine struck somewhere around iteration 5 or so The best part was the validation worked anyway

Hello everybody!
I'm new to SuperPi and I have serveral doubts.
First, I know that SuperPi does not stress all cores but is there a mod or something that stresses all cores?
Second, Super Pi is not loading 100% of any core. Is this normal?
Thanks in advance!

I use a x3370, P5Q Deluxe, 6GB Kingston Hyper-X DDR2.

its single threaded...
