Does anyone know why it says "No CUDA device found"? I am running an Intel Core 2 Quad 2.83GHz, 4GB RAM, and an NVidia 9800GT 512MB PCIE graphics card. This is a spare PC dedicated for SETI@home projects and I feel like it is not being used to its capacity.

Any answers would be great.

Thanks

Which BONIC (it's BOINC, btw) and which Nvidia driver are you using?

Is that card the primary videocard, or secondary?
Did you try to reboot your system?

You do have good enough drivers, which should enable CUDA.

You could try to uninstall/reinstall your drivers. Or update them to whatever is latest, or an earlier one. The minimum requirement is 177.35, so anything above that should work.

I'm looking at that 4GB of RAM and am wondering if that could cause problems. Windows XP Pro can only address up to 3GB or 3.5GB, as far as I know. Using the /PAE switch in boot.ini can give problems. Are you using the /PAE switch?
