My Windows Vista computer doing service on SETI@HOME received a warning: SETI@home: Notice from server NVIDIA GPU: Upgrade to the latest driver to process tasks using your computer's GPU 12/6/2017 4:39:02 PM It is still running CPU + GPU jobs right now, but I don't know for how long given the GPU Driver version warning. Vista Nvidia driver updates stopped with 342.01, which is what it is running. Will there be an exception made to allow the older computers without ongoing Nvidia GPU updates to contribute moving forward? |

My Windows Vista computer doing service on SETI@HOME received a warning: For the NVIDIA GeForce GT 240, driver 342.01 is the latest for all Windows versions. The GT240 is pre Fermi, and driver development has ended. |

Don't worry about the 'Notice from server'. Your existing tasks will continue to run until further notice - to be precise, until a new version of the SETI@Home search program is released - and that's not even on the horizon as yet. Keep an eye on the message boards here: if a new version is ever required - perhaps to process the Parkes data, as announced today - there will be plenty of discussion here about how to continue working on older hardware. |

My Windows Vista computer doing service on SETI@HOME received a warning: Actually you'll need a driver from the 337.xx driver range, or earlier version, to use that GPU properly and a lunatic's install maybe. Cheers. |
