Problems with GPU Client! Help???

StevenG · 24 Nov 2006 at 20:13

i installed the gpu client updated to the lastest drivers and the latest DX and "GPU initialization failed" that is what i get..

my core voltage is 1.45 standard 3d clocks and i still get it..

any ideas?

how do i run it normally then?
and no it didnt run at 2d clocks

StevenG · 24 Nov 2006 at 21:22

i sorted it out BUT. i have to pause on of my CPU clients to get it to do anything.. the cpu clients take over the GPU one and give it 0 cpu time. anyway to get all 3 clients to run together? or am i better off running 1 Cpu and one GPU or just 2 CPU?

StevenG · 24 Nov 2006 at 21:48

thanks.. i'll do that then.. 1cpu and 1 gpu.. im sure this will draw more power and its certainly making more noise..

also why cant i run the gpu as a service?

well its done 60% on the GPU when typing this in a 23'C room the gpu was at 65'C, is this a normal temp? is it safe to be running this 24/7

ive allowed the client to interact with the desktop and its working fine, i dont like having ugly cmd windows on my task bar lol.

everything working fine.. i just with that FahMon could read the GPU WU's

Thanks for the help.
