I was tyring to get some Cuda running on a machine I have here.
It is running 2 8800GTS 320mb cards, no matter what I do, the WU's crap out.
I tried even to disable the network, and copy folders, just in case issues arise, and when I copy everything back there still fubar'd.

Anywase, any help would be much appreciated.

Thsi is the machine I am trying to get running

How did you install BOINC? Not as a service, I hope (protected application execution)? As Vista won't be able to do that.

I installed it like I normally would, never as a service, something maybe about all users can run it.

And changed the folders, I have everything installed to D: drive.....

And the cards are running in SLi, but I was only looking to run one instance..

Just did a fresh install of Boinc 6.6.20, and it got the cuda WU's.
It looks like it's running on both cards, even though SLi isnt disabled....

One of the WU's looks like it's being run on the CPU I guess.

Is there a way to just let the GPU's work???



Thanks for the help so far..... :D

EDIT:
It's working on 2 at a time now, hopefully everything will be ok, just in case, I told it no now work....
