Nvidia and Stanford finalizing Folding@Home client for GeForce GPUs

[BigFatCat]

Running beta8 with a hacked .inf set of 177.41. It folds but will it play Haddock6?

I'm disgusted, my GPU temp reached 39C:ranting2:

And, in other news, Haddock6 did indeed work and I shotted some people without the whole game crapping out.

Just gave up on previous core, had 5 completed WUs in the queue which were never sent and about to complete a 6th.  Uninstalled, lost all 5 and now on the new beta.  I hope these upload ok.

177.35 is in BETA (CUDA 2.0 BETA2)

169.21 is current STABLE (that's version 1.1 of CUDA)

I'm downloading now but again cause of the age of my PC (remember the monitor at LAN peeps? hehe) I'm not sure I will realistically be able to run it. :eyebrow:

What do you cool your GPU with?

My GPU attempt failed miserably.

This morning:

F@H GPU Client
1) Installed the new drivers for GeForce
2) Installed the GPU client
3) Ran the GPU client and Errored with incompatible driver/system

nVidia nTune
4) Noticed nTune so downloaded and installed
5) Ran nTune - usual stuff about performance tweaking, thought "I cant be assed to do it all myself so why not let nTune do it (there is an option to let nTune do it, can't remember what it's called)
6) Fine for a few minutes and then it hung the PC.  It does say PC will probably hang, but that it's ok cause nTune will carry on after reboot.
7) After hang, rebooted and PC failed to boot into windows
A couple more restarts and it still failed to get into Windows (desktop got there but nothing else)
Decide that nTune is foobarbed and therfore start in Safe Mode and run msconfig
9) Notice that the GPU client of F@H is in start up so wonder if that caused the problem so disable and start again
10) No change on restart so back to safe mode again
11) Safe mode and msconfig and disable nTune
12) no change again! PC still fails to get to Windows!
13) Stuff it, System Restore here I come
14) Everything fine after System Restore to pre-nTune and GPU client

Comments anyone?

install ntune before gpu client?

install ntune before gpu client?

Cool, I might try that when I have an hour to spare (I'll need it for all the restarts later) :ranting2:
