"At present your GPU is not supported"

[mrmylanman]

I got a second GTX260 and decided to try it out in folding. At the same time, something happened to my XP installation and I decided rather than fix it, I'd go ahead and just put 7 on it again.

Well, the first GPU is working just fine, however the second one (when I try to launch it) gives me the GPU is not supported error. I am using the system tray client by the way.

I am using the 181.71 drivers for Windows 7, and tried both cards in SLI mode and not in SLI mode. Either way, it gives me the same error. Anyone know why this is? The nVidia control panel can see my GPU and it appears like it is set up properly, as does Rivatuner.

i'm not sure if this works the same with graphical clients but do you have the -gpu x command put into the shortcuts to start the program?

for your first gpu it would be -gpu 0 second one -gpu 1 etc...

I feel like an idiot. I solved the problem. Just faked the computer in to thinking I have 2 monitors attached (one to each card) and now it works just fine.
