With the new version 8 on SETI work units my computer has downloaded a few. However, they haven't started executing. These would be expected to run on the internal GPU on my I5 processor. I shouldn't have had to do anything, this change to version 8 should have been automatic.

Any suggestions on what to do? PrimeGrid is running fine on the main cores of the processor.

Thanks.

You have 5 work units downloaded to your computer.

All 5 are CPU work units.

Since PrimeGrid is currently running on the CPU, those 5 work units are probably waiting their turn to use the CPU to be analyzed.

You did have a single GPU work unit before those but it already completed and return the result for comparison.

Got it. Thanks. We'll just have to wait, then. Now if I could just get some GPU units...
