Title: AK V8 + AP + Stock Cuda - can`t get started
Post by: UmMaS on 20 May 2009, 10:26:28 am

Started with app_info.xml from AK V8 and AP installer, and mixed with my old one app_info.xml witch was working with CUda fine, but AP and AK V8 wasnt working at all.

here is my app_info.xml

My box is i7 920@4.0GHz + 2xGTX260 216 with small OC.
The point is to waste the power smart not just waste.

Last step wast to implemet MB_6.08_mod_CUDA_V11_USE_CROSS_WATCH.exe into BOINC, but CUDA does not work at all.

Hi there,

A quick look, and I notice 1 issue there. AFAIK, there is no application that uses 2 GPUs at once, change the orange line to a 1, and I beleive Boinc will try to fire up 1 application per GPU properly.  Also I seem to be out of Cuda work myself, I guess there isn't any to get, or just bad timing on my part.

I`ll wait and tell if it works.
