Once the GPUs are recognized by getting rid of gpu = false, the Client will Fold on the GPU from then on, restarting the Client or rebooting don't change the config back to gpu=false, the Client maintains the correct settings to continue folding on the GPU.bruce wrote:If the first time that FAHClient runs, it finds no GPUs with their respective drivers, FAH will add the gpu=false statement so that the next time you run it, it doesn't waste a few seconds reconfiguering GPUs:0.
I have not done a fresh install recently. If it does find a GPU and configure it, it may also decide that your GPUs are permanent parts of your kit and they're not going to change just because you restart FAHClient the next time you reboot.
Not editing the config is an excellent plan. Can you describe removing the entry using FAHControl? (and do you consider teaching FAHControl to be beyond the scope of what a newbie can absorb in their first sitting?)
No, I don't consider using FAHControl too complex for novices to use. I am just trying to get at the heart of needing to do a manual intervention by using Control.
To remove the entry, you simply go to Configure and Expert, click on the gpu=false, remove it, hit Save and when it's done saving, reboot the PC. When it comes back up, it will start Folding on the GPU. Since we haven't found a way to eliminate the manual step, that's what the Guide says to do and I will leave it like that unless we find an another way to eliminate that step.
Thanks,
