Although my CPU is working finely, my GPU is disabled. I cant find why and how to fix this. My GPU is AMD Radeon HD 7610M

From the log:

Code: Select all

*********************** Log Started 2021-05-12T20:51:13Z ***********************
20:51:14:WARNING:FS01:Disabling beta GPU slot 01: gpu:1:0 Whistler LE [Radeon HD 6500/7500/8500].  Beta GPUs can be tested for no points by setting ``gpu-beta=true`` in the configuration.
Does anybody know how to fix this?

Welcome to the folding support forum.

Your GPU is disabled since it is no longer usable for current F@h projects. The HD 7610M does not support double precision calculations (FP64) - https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/r ... 7610m.c377. Some double precision calculations are used during processing where the extra precision is needed.

Welcome to Folding@Home!

Because it does not meet the prerequisites, it cannot start, but if it could, it would never finish on time.

It is about 4 times slower than a GT 1030, about the slowest usable graphics card.

If it did work, it might overheat the laptop it was in.
