Folding Forum

Thanx for your help, it solves actually what i meant.
However, when watching the GPU in Windows Task Manager, it was showing "3D" instead of "Computing" or "CUDA" as busy, which still indicates then that the GPU is using OpenCL?

Hi all, would it be possible for the WUs to show which kind of computing is to be used by the GPU? I was using a GTX660m for months when i just realized it used "3D" regarding to Windows Task Manager, due to old(broken?) drivers. I also have a number since a while in the FS List, maybe tha...

I thank you for the tests as well, maybe i need to try all this too, because folding at me goes on, but when a new GPU WU is downloaded, it still stays on 0.0%. It starts folding only when i log in in any kind of way. I'll need to reinstall Windows 10 (2004) anyway - it got a bit damaged already due...

Well i just witnessed that my method is causing the main GPU which have a display connected to drop its clock to 300MHz (P-State 0) and as it looks, it stays there for some reason :O This can be healed only via a reboot.
Strange happening!

Well this is strange, because my other PC with two nVidia GPUs is working without problem, left locked all the time. The PC with AMD GPUs are also working, once i logged on via RDP and logged off. All these i can follow on GPU-Z history or HWinfo. Then maybe it is a thing which should not work at a...

The P-state 0 is normally not adjustable. The only way to step the GPU more up to higher states is to force it with some tools, or mod the Bios, which i just wouldn't like.
This hack above i found is still a "nicer" workaround imho.

Ok there is a not so elegant method, but it works. Instead of disconnecting from the RDP session, you double-click a batch file, which then leaves the session opened and disconnects you. Create a batch file with this: for /f "tokens=3-4" %%a in ('query session %username%') do @if "%%b...

Well i cannot apply fixed clocks on neither the 290x nor the 7970.
Maybe it is possible to do this on newer cards only(?)

Can be true, because when connecting to the station, the clocks are jumping up on at least one GPU, ofc because RDP should be HW accelerated and uses GPU.
I'll try maybe some fixed clocks or similar things.

Update: Something similar happens with the station locked and pausing a WU remotely from within the Viewer, then waiting some minutes, then starting it again. The only difference i see in this case is, that the Viewer continues counting the work progress, but if i log on back to the PC (unlocking st...

Hello, When the client gets a new WU, viewer tells it starts running, shows 0.00%, but then its stuck at this point, until I unlock the PC and log on again. I use Remote Desktop and also the FaH Viewer remotely. I had this problem also with v7.5.1 and now with two AMD GPUs in this PC and both do the...

Hello,
I can also confirm that after a fresh Windows10 and 7.6.9client install the GPU was not detected and downloading the GPUs.txt manually solved the problem.
System is:
Windows10 2004-Release Preview
AMD R9 290x GPU
