I have been processing with both my cpu and gpu. I want to continue using the cpu but stop the gpu usage. I am using the unified installer. I set to nnt and allowed the cuda's to complete. I have about 12 mb's and 6 ap left. I shut down boinc and reran the installer, deselecting the cuda option. On restart and allow new tasks, it promptly asks for more cuda tasks. Can I stop this without loosing or should I run out all tasks and reset the project? Just looking for the best way. And yes the use gpu is unchecked in my preferences. |

Did the client only ask for new CUDA tasks or did the server in fact send any? Did you check your app_info.xml for CUDA entries? Gruß, Gundolf Computer sind nicht alles im Leben. (Kleiner Scherz) SETI@home classic workunits 3,758 SETI@home classic CPU time 66,520 hours |

Resetting the project won't make a difference if you're using an anonymous platform file (app_info.xml) as that file and the executables detailed in it will stay in place on a project reset. A detach/reattach gets rid of everything. |

Ok, it asked for but didn't receive any. However I immediately set to NNT to stop it. Since I reinstalled the unified installer, the cuda entries are gone. Looks like I will just allow the work to run out and detach/reattach. |

It will continue to ask for work, even after a reattach, since it detects a CUDA device, but the server won't send any, because there's no application to run it on your host. Gruß, Gundolf |
