Message 91441 - Posted: 8 May 2019, 18:02:26 UTC
Last modified: 8 May 2019, 18:36:39 UTC

Hello,
I am having a problem, BOINC cannot detect my intel GPU. When it tries to, the detection appearently fails and exits with status 0xc0000005 (not 5, there is C at the front). I have tried googling it, but without any meaningfull result. I tried reinstalling the intel GPU driver, but that did not help. I used to have a dedicated nvidia GPU in my notebook, but it stopped working some time ago and I disabled it in bios, so I think that should not be the problem. Computations on the intel GPU used to work, but then it stopped. It was longer time ago, so I dont really remember if I changed something in the notebook.
I would appriciate any help with this, maily what the error code actually means and what might be wrong. Posting a couple of lines from the event log.
Thanks,
JakubH

Message 91442 - Posted: 8 May 2019, 18:38:31 UTC - in response to Message 91441.  

Any error code like that is pretty much guaranteed to be a Microsoft Windows NT status code, and very hard for anyone except a programmer to track down.

0xc0000005 is
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION

The instruction at 0x%08lx referenced memory at 0x%08lx. The memory could not be %s [read or write].
With a history like yours, it's possible that left-over code from the nvidia GPU is trying, but failing, to get information about the card you disabled.

I'd suggest that you run a utility like Display Driver Uninstaller to clean out the old, unwanted, code, reboot, and then run the Windows 10 updater to replace the intel driver that you do still want.

Thank you very much, that helped!
Using the utility you recommended, cleaning the nvidia leftovers removed the error, but BOINC was still unable to detect the intel GPU. So I also removed the intel driver and then installed it again from intel website. After restart, BOINC succesfully detected the intel GPU.
Thank you again,
JakubH

Message 91645 - Posted: 28 May 2019, 2:19:46 UTC - in response to Message 91441.  

Are you using a intel 530 GPU? if so it is the newest driver from Intel is causing the problem. A work around is to roll back the driver. Start Boinc with the old driver and then with Boinc running upgrade to the new Intel driver. Down side is you have to repeat every time you stop Boinc or reboot the computer. Or just run on the old driver and don't upgrade until something gets fixed. Intel must have changed a call procedure.

I just did the latest Windows feature update - to Windows 10, version 1903 (from version 1803) and now have essentially the same problem. That is, my GPU is no longer recognized by BOINC. (BTW - The update took a little more than 3 hours.) A bit later, when I discovered the missing GPU issue, I looked for the latest Intel Driver, downloaded and installed it after using DDU to clear the old one. It didn't help. And neither did doing a BOINC Repair Install.

Bottom line - if you are thinking about the latest Windows feature update, waiting a while is probably probably a good idea.

Non-detection of GPUs is almost always caused by lack of correct drivers, a problem with the newest drivers (try older ones) or Windows installing its own drivers which may lack required components.

Reinstalling BOINC only removes the program and puts it back in the directory. It won't change how hardware is detected.

Ageless,

Thank you for the quick reply. I've tried several earlier Intel drivers and none of them work. So, I'm beginning to think that this time, it's not the driver. And I'm wondering if the new Windows Feature Update has a bug - maybe related to OpenCL. What do you thinK?

Please open BOINC Manager, then press CTRL+SHIFT+F.
In the window that opens check coproc_debug and click Save.
Now exit BOINC & restart it in your normal way.

When you now check the event log (CTRL+SHIFT+E) it'll have more information about the coprocessor/GPU. Could you post that event log, please?

OK, thanks for that. The error requires me to dig through the source code, which I'll do tomorrow (it's 11pm here).
I'll be back on this.

Message 91761 - Posted: 7 Jun 2019, 19:37:40 UTC - in response to Message 91745.  

Okay, so the message means that BOINC cannot read what kind of OpenCL your Intel GPU supports.
It should report e.g.
x86_64 with minimum requirement of SSE 4_2````Compute Device Type: CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU``Compute Device Name: Intel(R) Kabylake Mobile Graphics Controller``Compute Device Version: OpenCL 2.1``Compute Device Driver Version: 20.19.15.9999``Compute Device OpenCL C Version: OpenCL C 2.0````Compute Device Type: CL_DEVICE_TYPE_CPU``Compute Device Name: Genuine Intel(R) CPU 0000 @ 2.60GHz``Compute Device Version: OpenCL 2.1 (Build 10245)``Compute Device Driver Version: 5.2.0.10245``Compute Device OpenCL C Version: OpenCL C 2.0
internally to BOINC - it will show part of this information at GPU detection: OpenCL version, driver version.

So definitely something wrong with your drivers.
Best install Display Driver Uninstaller and run it to remove all Intel drivers. Then install a driver, like the newest. Start BOINC, check the event log. No GPU detected? Exit BOINC, run DDU and remove the Intel drivers again (probably reboot). Then install an earlier driver. Start BOINC, check event log, is the GPU detected? Etc.

This may take a while, but it's the best you can do.

Ageless,

Thank you for the analysis. But I am skeptical that your recommendation will work. Thet is, everything was working fine until I installed the Windows Feature Update. (I don't know if the WFU installed a different driver or left the one which had been working.) But the problem started as soon as the update went into effect. Before I posted here, I had already used DDU and installed the latest Intel driver. And, per your first suggestion, I tried 3 different earlier Intel drivers using DDU each time,

I checked the MS website and saw several problem reports relating to the new feature update (although nothing directly related to display drivers or OpenCL). But there were a few negative comments about it being a sloppy release. Therefore, I am more inclined to revert back to my pre-Windows Feature Update status. If I still have driver issues then, I can troubleshoot them using an OS I have confidence in.

Again, thank you for your help on this! And, I will report back in a day or so when the reversion is complete.\

Well reverting back to Windows v1803 was a lot easier than updating to v1903. Only took about 15 minutes vs. 3+ hours for the update. And, BOINC recognized my GPU immediately. Nothing else needed.

Well reverting back to Windows 10, v1809 was a lot easier than updating to v1903. Only took about 15 minutes vs. 3+ hours for the update. And, BOINC recognized my GPU immediately. Nothing else needed.

I did a little more experimenting after the above reversion. That is, I installed the latest Intel driver under Windows 10, v1809 and with that driver in place, BOINC couldn't find a GPU, (This was the same driver that was installed automatically as part of the latest Windows Feature Update - v1903 and caused the same "missing GPU" issue.

After that, I ran DDU again to remove v1903 Intel driver from Windows 10, v1809 and then I ran WU again to restore the v1809 driver. And I noticed that this WU driver download had 2 parts (both from Intel) - a Display part, dated 11/18/18 and an Extension part, dated 1/21/19. This makes me wonder if the problem with v1903 driver is a missing or incompatible Extension. But now that BOiNC is working again, I think I will leave things the way they are and forego more experimenting.

Rule of thumb is never to use Windows Update for driver updates for GPGPU things. It may be fine for gaming, but general purpose GPU requires additional packages that Microsoft may not provide via Windows Update, because they are open source, because they clash with their own versions of it, or whatever their reason is. So always use the drivers from the GPU manufacturer's page. In this case Intel: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/80939/Graphics-Drivers

Update. We have now established that this error is intrinsic to BOINC, and will occur when the new Intel Windows DCH drivers are installed - whether they are sourced from Microsoft or Intel.

BOINC v7.14.x will always fail to detect an iGPU with these drivers, but v7.16.x should work. It is anticipated that testing of the new client should start either over this weekend, or during the week commencing 17 June 2019.
