Folding Forum

one last quick question: is the G80 / 8xxx series gpu going to be completely unsupported any time soon? i was tossing around the idea of getting a cheap sli board to dedicate to folding 100% with the 3 8xxx cards. bad idea?

yes i re-installed 306.97 after putting the second card back in. i am getting the 'hang' again. my gpu_memtest_error has disappeared but it just sits there. no progress. i have had 3 cards on that same motherboard same cpu all folding. that was several years ago. 2x 8800gts and an 8600gts. in sli. n...

so i just had a quick thought as i'm putting the other gpu in: do i still need the 'dummy plug?' dvi to vga adapter with some resistors tricking the driver to think there is a monitor.. now i'm thinking that is my whole problem. i have the second card outputing on the s-video (looks like s-video, wh...

i have been busy, but up and folding on the one gpu. (and smp) which has more than 2x the ppd than the last time i was folding on 3 gpus.. so pretty happy with that. i was thinking you might want to change the name of the thread to two (different) gpu's? i think the sli guys and gals are not having ...

thank you. i realize that last post sounds ..snarky? sorry about that, just seemed like a dead thread. any way here is the log as of 15 mins of running. *********************** Log Started 2013-02-27T08:21:06Z *********************** 08:21:06:************************* Folding@home Client ***********...

quick update for anyone paying attention: i ended up pulling the second video card, the 8600gts, and i am up and folding. using the latest 310.90 driver on a GTX 560 sc version. i would still like to find a dual card solution, none of the config.xml edits i tried worked. i was using the other card t...

Physically flip flop? i did try disabling the 8600. ill try the flip flop today, and if no-go ill just pull it. I had thought they were backwards. the 560 is in the pci 1 and the 8600 in pci 3. however device manager lists them 8600 first so i ignored that. ..reminds me i had to flip flop two other ...

so i edit the config.xml file? how do i enter 2 gpu's? <config> . . . <slot><gpus v="1"/> <gpu-vendor-id v="0xXXXX"/> <gpu-device-id v="0xXXXX"/> </slot> <slot><gpus v="2"/> <gpu-vendor-id v="0xXXXX"/> <gpu-device-id v="0xXXXX"/> </slot> </...

i found the 306.97 that is for pc's, i don't know how i ended up on the notebook page. installed 306.97 and am getting the same results = 0%. i'd really like to get this rig up and folding again, anyone have any ideas?

WS: 171.67.108.36
I have tried different drivers, and other delete, re-install, edit, suggestions all with the same result. Its been a long time since i did any folding and i'm really curious to see what this fermi card can do!

i just noticed something strange. when i started the core on the 560 all my clocks dropped. core, shader, memory.. weird. why would it underclock my card? also, the other card is showing activity when the core for that card is supposed to be paused? ..alright,... no matter which card i hit the start...

wow that was fast, sorry i am not forum friendly.. the 306.97 is a mobile gpu driver. it wouldn't even install. any other ideas? ...here are more details about my issue. after a loooong hiatus i want to fold again. i was really impressed by the v7 client, no messing around. install, done. it found b...

so you're saying this notebook video driver is the trick? the 'm' version driver is going to work on my pc? i'll give it a shot, if i can get up and folding again.
