Does a WU then says GPU not supported?

I do a few WU's and then check on machine and see that the gpu client is doing anymore work , so I close the client and then relaunch it and then get the error that my GPU is not supporte .... :confused:

I reload vidcard drivers and then it's ok again

was using latest WHQL certified .. then went to guru3d and tried latest beta's with same results ..I even reinstalled the 686 nForce 4 mobo drivers ..but same results

nothing in the the event viewer indicating a problem with anything except some print errors(even tho there are no printers hooked up to this box)

I thought maybe it's the psu not cutting the mustard , so I took out the 2 other sata drives that were in the box hoping to eleviate some of the stress off of the PSU as I know it's a bit underpowered for the job...but I don't have any others to replace it, nor the funds to purchase a better unit.. I am having to use a power plug adapter to the card to power it up off of the regular connectors..

I have an Intel setup with a PCI-e slot I could move everything over to to try I guess , but I thought I'd see if this is fixable first

maybe try older nVidia drivers on the vidcard? :confused:

I'd like this box to be a "set it and leave it" type of folder if possible ..kind of a pain having to reinstall drivers every day on it :p
 
Typically when i get gpu not supported that means a display hasn't been extended. are you running more then one card or just the 8800gt? do you have a monitor connected to it?

that pretty much covers my idea's the other guys will surely chime in soon :)
 
I swap an LCD between different computers .. and then log into the box using rdp .. so it always have a monitor plugged into it ... hmm

..and it's always just one monitor ..and I only have one vidcard installed
 
if i'm not mistaken I might be i think rdp kicks off the display driver which would kill your folding instance
I think if you look back a couple of threads they mention that i'll see if i can find it.
 
RDP will kill your GPU2 instance.

Instead of RDP, you may want to look at some varient of VNC as this will NOT affect GPU2 F@H.
 
84gthatch is right on this, I believe. I use TightVNC to remote control my machines, and it does not disrupt the display driver. Free, lightweight, and easy to use.
