Hi,

I don't know how exactly boinc interacts with the tasks and the graphic cards but nevertheless, since this update of win10 we've seen so far 2 major problems of boinc projects and this update.
I would like to add one which is linked to the graphic problem.
my computers (3 of them which are windows desktops) all completely freeze at a certain point.
project running:
-seti
-eintein
-worldcommunity

all of these project or one of them or maybe the activity of boinc iteself seems responsible of these freeze. no event log of course since it is a freeze, it needs a hard reset each time. everything usual have been done, reinstall drivers, boinc, ...
I've managed for now to isolate the problem by creating a vm structure on each desktop with hyper-vm (since i'm using docker too). It is heavy of course but necessary to be sure to isolate step by step the problem. I've been led to that conclusion since I red here that all the founder devs of boinc which had skill in win coding have left-> linux VM

So since we are facing lack of win programming skills, my advice it's to create small vm of linux with boinc inside even in 32 bits until we recover of this loss.

configuration of the hosts:
i7 6770k or 7770k
970gtx or 1070 gtx or 1080 gtx
win 10 creator update.
boinc version 7.6.33

if you need me te create a bug report somewhere just tell me but I wouldn't be able to pull some logs or anything since a freeze doesn't produce anything except freeze.
