Why does it say on my messages "no work sent" and "your computer has no NVIDIA GPU"? I know that my Toshiba has a ATI Radeon 3100 Graphics and I tried downloading NVIDIA but no luck because it wasnt compatible. Are any compatible with the kind I have? Will I be able to do any SETI work? Help please

S@H also has work for your CPU, and you can do these. ATI and NVIDIA do not do programming the same way, so currently applications for these two are not interchangeable. You will currently not be able to use your GPU for processing. There are plans for an ATI application, but it is not available yet.

you could uncheck the use nvidia GPU if present button on your preferences. I think that should stop boinc/seti from asking about the GPU
