Title: Protected mode for Vista / 7 64-bit
Post by: Caprio on July 21, 2012, 08:59:17 PM
Hello,

What would it take to get Lunatics optimized GPU app to work in Protected mode for Vista / Win 7 64-bit (Service). This would be convenient with multiple users / Windows restart.

It would need Microsoft to re-write Windows with lower security / less protection against bad driver code.

Not going to happen in our lifetimes, I'm afraid.

Lets hope the 7.0.28 version copes better with multiple user logging on and off. With older 6.x.x version the GPU speed went to idle if another user logged on. Lunatics.exe was still calculating but the progress was very slow. 900MHz -> 50MHz.....
