Hey all. My laptop has a 1600M Quadro FX with 512 mb of memory. nVidia site shows this to be a CUDA enabled device. ( http://www.nvidia.com/page/quadrofx_go.html ) UPdated boinc to latest 6.6.3. Updated nVidia drivers to latest for this machine. Still getting a No CUDA devices found. :( Anything else that would hold it back? -s |

Could you link the computer in question by Host ID, please? None of yours are showing a CUDA card as yet. If it's one of the Vista ones, is BOINC running as a service ('Protected Execution Mode')? That would scupper it. |

Nvidia card list Yours is not on the list. Thus you won't be able to do GPU crunching on seti@home In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope |

Nvidia card list Wrong again, if you look at the 'Quadro Mobile Products' there is the Quadro FX 1600M. Claggy |

Sure it is. Scroll down. On the right side under Quadro Mobile Products. Quadro FX 1600M The computer id is 4296262 |

Searcher, you didn't say what version drivers you've installed. At least it has enough memory, unlike my 8400M GS. Claggy |

Forced to use ones released from HP. Driver date is 11/4/2008 Driver Version is 6.14.11.7687 |

youre problem are the mobile drivers. you need to install ver 181.20 or higher for cuda to work.the nvidia drivers on the homepage are ver 178.xx. you can get version 181.2x at laptopvideo2go.com |

Forced to use ones released from HP. Nvidia now have Notebook drivers on their site, 179.28 are the ones i have installed on my Samsung R700, otherwise I'd be stuck with 156.76 from Samsung. Claggy Edit: 179.28 are latest drivers for notebooks, you only need 180.xx drivers if you intend to run Raistmer's apps, |

That laptop is reporting Bonc as follows............ <core_client_version>5.10.45</core_client_version> Isn't Boinc version 6.4.5 or greater required to recognize a Cuda capable video card? I believe it is. Boinc....Boinc....Boinc....Boinc.... |

Those might be old results reported since the OP states that they recently updated to BOINC v6.6.3, which is still in alpha as far as I know. |

2/2/2009 3:59:14 PM||Starting BOINC client version 6.6.3 for windows_intelx86 As far as I know, "daemon" mentioned at BOINC's log is equal to choice of "Protected Application Execution" at the time of BOINC's installation... And there are official words at SETI@Home site "Run SETI@home on your NVIDIA GPU": Protected Application Execution mode is incompatible with CUDA, so be sure to install BOINC with the default options. |

for best performance you should use boinc 6.2.19 the latest driver pack from laptopvideo2go and raistmer team pack v8 and the modified cc_config.xml . i started using this setup 3 days ago and it is working like a charm. |

2/2/2009 3:59:14 PM||Starting BOINC client version 6.6.3 for windows_intelx86 daemon is indeed the "Protected Application Execution" mode, but that's OK under Windows XP (it's the way I run mine) - it's only a problem under Vista. The computer Searcher linked is XP, so it should be OK. But the log also says 2/2/2009 3:59:14 PM||No CUDA devices found so I'd go with the driver theory. |

CUDA isn't supposed to work until at least 6.4.5... unless that has changed again? Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |

The stock app needs v6.4.5, but Raistmer's v8 mod can run under earlier versions by talking to CUDA directly, bypassing BOINC - fudge to allow CPU + GPU processing of a common task cache. |

My D620 Dell Latitude laptop does the same thing its coming up that no cuda hardware found even when i try to install cuda 2.1 it runs a Nvidia Quadro Fx NVS 110m which says it compatible with cuda but doesn't seem to be, ill send nvidia a email and c what i can uncover into this mater, another thing i had happen is that the problem occurs no matter the o.s I've tried vista and xp pro neither of which would take cuda with the nvs 110m. |

Tried the driver and inf from laptopvideo2go but no go. Windoze (or maybe the hardware) did not like it. I uninstalled it all the way down to system vga and reinstalled it with no luck. ugg... you forget how ugly vga is.. |
