Was there another batch of Windows Updates? (Should be tomorrow, BTW) I see Scott and Scorpy seem to have dropped 25% over the last two days.

Yes, there have been several Win 10 updates recently. I have them on hold right now.

Month after month, I'm glad I went the Linux route.

I have my main machine set not to update. So not sure why it has dropped down.

Mine has dropped bad too. I have rolled back drivers, installed patches and everything. It has been driving me crazy. Advanced control is reporting nearly a million points a day, but the stats on EOC aren't showing it. I am starting to think it is EOC.

I am currently using the 376.48 Nvidia driver. I did a clean install when I updated. No problems since.

I may try rolling back to 376.48 and seeing if it makes a difference.

Looking at my stats, it appears something happened after Noon yesterday and my numbers seem to be back up to almost normal. I have made no changes on my end.

Less than 3 days until we conquer the Ukraine and move into the #55 slot.

Last year at this time SatGuys was #86.

Ukraine is over 10,000,000 points in our rear-view mirror! Way to Fold, Team!!!

So what's going on with the Folding Work Servers? I've seen delays in getting new WUs for my systems lately, and I'm not the only one. Lots of Sat Guys Folding Team have fallen off Points production and I wonder if it's Windows 10 autoupdates removing the "good" version of the NVIDIA drivers.

I too would like to know. I have fought this for over a month. I am not even sure it is me, or just something with WU's I am getting, but I get a lot of rejected ones, after it churns through it for hours.
I have changed nothing on my end, nor have I slowed folding. I have tried 10-15 different versions of drivers also. The machine that is on Win 10 beta fast ring is fine, the other is the one that is having issues.
This all started the 27th of Jan, when things started to drop off. I feel it is something to do with Win 10, as I have noticed it appears that you Roland have been fine this whole time.

I am running 376.48 on my GTX1060 card and have not had problems with WU's since I did a clean install of the driver. My chart looks the same.

I have Win10 updates on hold and make sure the Nvidia driver does not update when I allow the updates to process.

Weirdness on my iMac, I'm guessing the Work folder got corrupted or something. I've had occasions where my iMac has spontaneously rebooted and the other day I heard the fans spin down (like they do when a WU is complete) but they never spun up. It looked like it was trying to download a WU but it was hung.

So, I Stopped the FAHClient, blew away the Work folder (and all the old Core_a4 and new Core_a7 executables) and rebooted. Voila! I'm back at "full" production. Now for a trip into the basement Folding Farm to check on how things are going down there, taking a can of compressed propellent to evict any dust bunnies that may have tried to find a warm and toasty home...
