GPU Not Folding

[Audix]

I set up F@H last night and my CPU (AMD Ryzen 7 1800x) is up and running but my GPU (Vega 64)has not shown up at all. Photos of both the FAH GUI and GPUz bellow.

Code: Select all

I am guessing you have no gpu slot configured. (it shows in the log just beyond the part you shared)

In the taskbar to the lower right of the screen, you should see a F@H molecule icon, click it (you may need to click an Up Arrow to see it ^)

The second item in this menu is Advanced Control, click it

On this screen to the left is a Configure button, click it

Now you get a screen with a Slots tab, click it

On this white field should be a cpu item, click add

On this pop up click the GPU radio button and save

For some reason, this worked for me on the second try.

This could be the issue with the new installer that needs the GPU.txt file … Someone will be able to give instructions to sort that ...Also for future reference - if you have the power slider on light it will paused the GPU slot (once you have one)

If Jimbo Palmers solution doesnt work, try this first and then retry.

Regarding the inability to add a GPU slot, I would suggest that you:
Manually download the GPUs.txt file from here: https://apps.foldingathome.org/GPUs.txt (right-click save as GPUs.txt)
Exit the client
Copy the GPUs.txt file from the Downloads folder to %AppData%\FAHClient
Reboot your system
Start up the client and ensure that you can see your GPU in the log file
Add a GPU slot from FAHControl -> Configure -> Slots tab -> Add -> GPU -> OK -> Save

Thank you Jan, That worked.

Welcome to the F@H Forum Audix,

Please note that the client configuration isn't posted, I shall assume that you're using a passkey as it is recommended for security reasons and bonus points. You can read more about it here: https://foldingathome.org/support/faq/points/passkey/

If you would like to post your log file which includes the client configuration, please review this topic for guidance: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=26036
