I've recently updated my client to 6.4.5 version and downloaded the latest drivers from nvidia(181.20) in order to use my 9800gx2 as a coprocessor in seti.I had 24 cuda tasks at the beginning but since they were completed i couldn't get any more tasks.The only thing that works now is the astropulse application.Does anyone know how can i receive cuda tasks again?(I am using the windows 32bit version)

You might want to try going to the NIVIDIA web site and let their program give you the most recent software. It automatically scans your computer and recommends what's needed.
Then upgrade to BOINC 6.6.2 or better.
I think this will take care of most of your problems.

Well, I tried that but it had no use in my pc.I also tried to download the boinc version you proposed but i couldnt find it anywhere.Then one day later, all of a sudden i saw some cuda tasks being downloaded from the project along with new astropulse tasks.I think that in order to take cuda wu you need to finish first the astropulse wu(?) or something like that.I also have another problem.The 9800gx2 has 2 gpu's but boinc sees only 1{coprocessor:geforce 9800gx2(1)}.Also cpu usage is at 50% while cuda is active(one gpu working+50%of the cpu).Do you know how can i solve this problem?

1.5gb ram
gpu:9800gx2
Nvidia drivers:181.22
