Last modified: 14 Nov 2009, 16:25:47 UTC Am getting CPU WUs but no GP WUs Are you talking cuda or AP? My machine I built last night got a whole bunch of Cuda WU's. This machine just seems to work on any unit as none are labled CUDA, like on my other machine or this version of Boinc doesn't seem to show them as cuda. Using the latest.18 version.

Am getting CPU WUs but no GP WUs There are no specific WU for the GPU as far as I know. When there is work for the CPU there is work for the GPU. Does the log report a CUDA device? Do you see request for GPU work in the log. You did enable the GPU work in you account settings? ID: 947224 ·

One machine of mine has 6.10.17 and it has WU's that specifically say CUDA and those move up and start when another unit is needed for Cuda. On my new machine I have 6.10.18 and it just seems to use the next unit in que and none say Cuda. Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound! ID: 947228 ·

John, did you do anything on the 4th that might have disabled your GPU? Is that the date you switched to 6.10.17 or 18? Did you change your preferences around that date for some reason? I see it affected two of your machines. Check your preferences both on your accounts page and in the BOINC manager to see if they got changed somehow. Oh, and also, did you by any chance install as protected application when you changed up to the new Manager? It wont recognize your GPU if you did.
