BOINC v 6.6.20 reports:
"5/3/2009 1:24:07 PM No CUDA devices found"

Running Vista Ultimate 64bit on Intel Q6600 (Quadcore at 3GHz) with 8GB Ram and a MSI GFX260 (CUDA capable)

Latest drivers 182.x, Checkbox ticked "Use GPU while computer is in use"

Very odd. Please can someone shed some light on this issue?

Did you install BOINC as a Protected Mode/Service installation? If so, CUDA does not work with this type of configuration under Vista.

The log mentions Running as a deamon, and a deamon is similar to being a service, so it might be that it's "protected" that way. Any way to unprotect it?
