Does anyone know what acemd-918-80.e is? My computer has crashed twice today, both times after trying to access it 18 times in a matter of seconds. The reason I am wondering if it is one of the BOINC projects is that both times it happened, I was away from my computer long enough for BOINC to start operating. However, I have tried searching both my computer (including in hidden folders) and Google, but I haven't found anything. The warning message from my notifications that comes up is:

Application has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware.
Application acemd-918-80.e has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware.

My computer has randomly crashed every so often the last while, but I was attributing that to overclocking my CPU, thinking it may have become unstable. I didn't think to check the notifications until this morning when that large of a string of warning messages popped up so quickly, so I'm not sure if this is the same thing that was crashing my computer previously, but it is responsible for crashing my computer twice today.

Any ideas on what it is?[/img]

I'm suspecting more and more that this may be due to BOINC or one of the projects. I was able to find a software called ACEMD (https://www.acellera.com/products/molecular-dynamics-software-gpu-acemd/) that is an accelerated molecular dynamics engine designed to run on NVIDIA GPUs, and is used to perform molecular dynamics simulations of proteins, oligosaccharides, nucleic acids, and synthetic polymers.

Now the question is, does anyone know which projects use ACEMD? Or is that something built into the BOINC software package?

The same thing happened again last night, except this time with hsgamma_FGRPB11. I think that one is from Einstein@Home. I don't want to suspend these programs if I don't have to, as both GPUGRID and Einstein@Home are two projects that my computer has been doing really well at in terms of work completed. Any suggestions on how to make it so these types of incidents don't keep happening so that my computer doesn't keep crashing? Thanks.
