Hi!
I keep receiving messages reminding me to update to the latest GPU drivers, but as long as I know, I have downloaded and installed the latest ones possible for my Sony VAIO PC (Nvidia Geforce graphics card). For a few weeks now, I haven't received any new work from the server of the Milkyway@Home project. What might be the problem?

Thanks!

Oh, and the last work unit my PC worked on, completed only 2% after several days of work (for a period of 3-4 weeks).

Sorry but I do not think GT330M has double precision, Milkyway GPU requires
double precision.

NVIDIA says the GT330M has a compute capability of 1.2 and Wikipedia says

Double precision floats (CUDA compute capability 1.3 and above)

I also saw an entry in a gpugrid forum saying their gt330m does not have
double precision.

No driver update will give you this, however their are plenty of BOINC
projects that will work fine .

As Tom said two different problems, the double precision is a card thing, not a driver thing. As for updating the drivers as long as you don't game then the existing drivers will pretty much work for a very long time. The gpu makers, AMD and Nvidia are the two biggies, are constantly tweaking their drivers to make the gaming experience better. We crunchers do NOT use our gpu's the same way and in fact some of the gaming tweaks are bad for us crunchers. Once you find a driver that works well stick with it and ignore the update notices. If you keep following the message boards when there is a driver update that benefits the crunchers EVERYONE will be talking about it.
