No Resources?

Post by GTS250 »

My FAH desktop crashed (bad motherboard) around 5-6 months ago.

After rebuilding it, I updated all my drivers (motherboard, graphics card, etc) but when I went to restart FAH online, I saw the following message:

No resources

I can confirm that my graphics card (GTX 970) works (i.e., displays on my screen, plays 3-D video games, etc), so I am puzzled why FAH isn't detecting my graphics card as a resource.

For what it is worth, I was working the "diabetes" folding project and I would like to resume doing so.

Would someone please advise?

Thank you.

Post a screenshot of your configuration page and logs of the failures.

Also, make sure you have CUDA installed. Without it, your GPU will only be able to be used for graphics tasks. You need CUDA to perform computation tasks on the GPU.

Silly me. I have been away for so long that I forgot to go to my settings and click "enable". Easy fix. Thank you.

I'm glad it's working! The UI really could be better. Imagine how helpful it would be if it said "GPU is disabled in settings" instead of "No resources" when it detects that the GPU is present and supported but simply not selected. :)
