I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 in one computer. In configure GPU is selected. All options are left at -1 and this GPU shows in both Web control and Client Advanced Control. I am interested in Covid research and the designated research is "Any disease".
Although it shows in the web control as GPU:0:GP104 and says ready, I have never seen it working on a WU, it remains at 0(0,0,0) Work Units and estimated points is 0. The "sphere" which is green on the 6 cores are green and showing rotation, the GPU sphere is always orange with no activity.
I have the latest NVidea drivers for this card but nada. Any suggestions for what I can do to get Coronavirus WUs working with the GPU?
Thanks
GPU shows as available, doesn't get utilized

I'm new here but look at the log tab in the Advanced control, sometimes you'll have things like this:
There is a shortage of GPU assignments sometimes, for instance I got 3 today, with 4 hours between the last 2, whereas I always get CPU ones right away. This is also alluded to here: viewtopic.php?f=61&t=33193 and viewtopic.php?f=61&t=34581.
