Message 28592 - Posted: 30 Jul 2009, 8:17:53 UTC

I've recently purchased an ATI card which is able to crunch, but only had VPU recoveries with catalyst 9.6. The day before yesterday I have tried catalyst 9.7 and-impressive- it worked!

Now the only problem I have is that Boinc(6.6.38) doesn't recognize my 4770 card("no CAL device") and therefore only one project can be run at a specific time. I want you guys to help me do a script to force Boinc to run both WCG and Milkyway(GPU) simultaneously and ask for WU's at a 5 minutes' interval. This would really help my box to never being out of work. Thanks in advance!

LE: it seems that setting <ncpus> to "3" solved a part of the problem, but BOINC doesn't ask for enough work to keep up with the vga card. What can I do?

Set the resource share for MW higher might help!

I wish The Gas Giant will live for 1000 years+ for this piece of information. Truly useful!
