After working gpugrid down to last WU and pausing it, I resumed seti beta to do its thing. It immediately downloaded at least 100 WU and my system went crazy, with ABC@home and MilkyWay@home switching from running to waiting to run once or more each second. This occurred during the entire download and about 10-15 seconds past the download when one them made up its mind that it was the one to run.



The very first WU processed got an immediate nvidia driver error, but the next one seems to be running ok.

The above snapshot show the last second or two of the download of the "100" and the first few seconds of after the last seti beta cude downloaded. Note the time difference of 1 second for both projects. They are getting alternating time slices. I recall a time slice is supposed to last an hour.
