So as part of the "official project" discussion in another thread, I switched my CPU folder over to WCG from F@H. Now I am trying to fold on the only "decent" GPU I own - an old unlocked 6950. I installed the card, loaded the "Crimson" drivers since the card is on the legacy support model, and installed the latest v7 client. On starting the client, everything seemed fine - it recognized a CPU and GPU slot as expected, identified the card as a Cayman card as expected, and downloaded and started folding some GPU project. The problem is that the GPU is not actually doing anything (0% load for over a day now), and the CPU is (very slowly) processing the WU. I deleted the GPU slot and re-added it, but I see the same thing.
While there is a reasonable chance that this card is just bad, it is displaying and streaming video (what i do with the machine it is in), so it works to some extent. Is it maybe just too old to fold these days? I figured I would try it since it is just laying around, but it is definitely not working.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
