GEFORCE 315 GPU - not folding.
Does anyone out there have any advice as to how to get Nvidia Geforce 315 operational? I have tried the standard things, such as changing drivers. I see it had a mention on the forum as being one of several with which there was a problem, but that was with an older FAH system, dating back to 2010. If I am going to have the computer running with the CPU at work, it's a shame if the GPU can't be doing something at the same time. If previous issues are anything to go by it'll just suddenly spring into life. At least, that is what I have been hoping. Thanks.

As a rule, Graphics cards do not age well for Folding. F@H only becomes more demanding of what it needs. Your card is a decade old.

When someone asks about a car I look for 3 things:
Does it support OpenCL 1.2? - The 315 does not
Does it support Double Precision floating point math? - The 315 does not
Will it complete on time? - even if the previous two were true, no it would not.
I hope the card is doing well for you, but it will never fold.

Thanks, Jimbo. I should have thought of that myself. (As an aside, I did have a more recent (and powerful) graphics card installed but my grandson's had malfunctioned so I gave him mine, going back to my older card in my desktop - and had forgotten that I had done so. I should have looked the specifications up. The ability to step back and think logically is sometimes (perhaps that should read often) missing.)
