Re: Second GPU not used

Start by inserting the <use_all_gpus> option in the cc_config.xml and boot. See the really friendly thoughtful manual at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Cc_config.xml which contains many more options that can be inserted in the config file.

Crunch On.

Re: Second GPU not used

Yep, I found that. But I still get that message after restarting BM.

<cc_config>
<options>
<use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus>
</options>
</cc_config>

Re: Second GPU not used

Hi Blade ... I think you need to shut BOINC down completely and not just the Manager.

Re: Second GPU not used

Trusting BladeD powered down the PC before inserting the additional hardware and checked BIOS if that needed visiting, but then if this is not PnP these days, then don't know what.

When I exit BM, it ends all WUs.

The second GPU is working. It's connected via another HDMI port and I watched a few videos on it last night.
