Re: FaHCore_21.exe has stopped working - GTX970, ver. 384.94
When Windows detects a serious error ... like a GPU failure ... it only has two choices. 1) Kill the app that was involved or 2) BSOD/Reboot.
By display the popup on you screen, Windows started choice 1, informing you that FAHCore_xx was going to be killed. At that momement, its processing had been suspended but it was still resident in (virtual) memory in case you wanted to examine the code or the status registeres or perform a specialized core-dump. Once you acknowledged the popup, it proceeds to clear out the "offending" program and reports the error to FAHClient.
That explains why no progress was being made ... because FAHCore_xx had been suspended by the OS.
Perhaps error 0xc0000374 is one of the ways WIndows reports an out-of-memory condition. If you've been leaving FAHControl running, the known memory leak might be the only problem that Windows detected. In any case, the event viewer report would be soon after the last progress message from that FAHCore.

Re: FaHCore_21.exe has stopped working - GTX970, ver. 384.94
Dear all,
thank you very much for all the answers.
I might have found the culprit: almost by mistake I stumbled in to device manager and discovered that I hadn't installed everything properly. After having installed Intel Chipset Drivers it seems to be working better and with no crashes (cross fingers!).
Out of the two unidentified devices there is still one which I don't know how what it is or how to identify. Even the Intel Utility is not helping at all (I any case I don't like this utility too much, as it's not the first time where it fails to identify the correct driver).
In any case, for the moment being, FAH hasn't crashed yet.
Thank you very much!

I have tried to give a look at Windows Event viewer... it's not that easy to read and to understand!

According to that report, your OS recognizes two types of devices which FAH can use:
Intel and Nvidia FAH recognizes your GPU: 0x10de:0x13c2:NVIDIA Corporation:NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 and your CPUs.
The other devices listed are for general use, including memory, your network device, the PCIe bus, etc. but they're unlikely to have problems related to or reported by FAHClient.

Dear all,
I can confirm. After installing the correct chipset drivers I haven't got any further issue. The computer is folding continuously without any app crash.
Thank you all for your support.

Dear all,
it has happened once more. Maybe this time it is Nvidia related (and not to the chipset as I was mentioning in the previous posts) as there is a reference to a ntdll.dll... Please have a look at the event viewer log and tell me what you think about it.
Thank you very much!

Re: FaHCore_21.exe has stopped working - GTX970, ver. 384.94
Ntdll.dll is not part of FAH; it's essentially basic Windows. The error code 0xc0000374 indicates that Windows has detected a "heap corruption."
This can be caused by hardware errors (defective hardware, overheating, overclocking etc.) or simply by running out of memory. Which version of FAHClient are you running?
As I suggested above, the beta version of FAHControl has a known memory leak bug. Until it's fixed, we recommend that you use FAHControl whenever you need it but you should shut it down when you're not using it rather than leaving it running continuously. There are unconfirmed reports of a memory leak in FAHCore_21.
What are your Windows virtual memory settings?

I'm not totally convinced this is a FAHControl memory leak ... yes, there is a default theme problem in Windows but that's not necessarily related to the memory leak.
Most of my setups are using Ubuntu and Xubuntu with one using win 10 pro and they rarely, if ever, run FAHControl. All are using 7.4.16. Yet, the memory usage for FAHCient grows over time and I have seen it as high as 20 GB. Needless to say that computer with 8 GB of ram was running a bit sluggish! So I went around to all my computers and they were all using extremely high amounts of memory, many in the gigabyte range.
If the user reboots once every week or two due to updates etc. the memory usage would probably not reach some of the extremes I've seen and they may not even notice but it's there and it appears to be in FAHClient. Perhaps something to do with the logs continually growing and memory not being expunged when the logs rotate??? Just a wild guess and probably a wrong one!
