Hi guys,

Returning cruncher, i can only seem to get boinc to detect one of my gpu's and it doesn't seem to even be using it. i tried to run a second instance of setiathome but it wont let me install a second one.

i have a 680gtx and a 550ti wich i know are both compatible because i've used them previously. but maybe this is why i was running setiathome and gridgpu at once last time

its using the setiathome_8.00_windows_intelx86.exe

advice on both queries would be great thanks.


edit:
i can also see 8 instances running in the task manager, so that makes me think its using my 4 hyper threaded cores instead of the gpu

not sure what i have done but i'm now running 9 instances of setiathome8.exe and one of them appears to be using my gpu.

so i cant find the cc_config.xml file because it wasn't created by default.

can i make boinc generate one? or do i need to copy and paste one from the forum somewhere?
