Last install of BOINC killed my Nvidia dual 550 GPU for this project. Please advise.

This could happen if BOINC was installed as a "service". In that mode, it cannot detect GPUs. What I would suggest is to uninstall and then re-install BOINC, ensuring that the box for "Service Install" is not checked. You'll see that option in the window that also shows your Program and Data directories. If you see that the option is checked, use the"Advanced" button to deselect it.
