Folding Forum

im a little new to this ..how do you add a gpu device to folding@home???

Welcome to the forum ihatesnow,
What exactly do you mean? Do you want to fold on your GPU, are you adding another GPU and want to use it, is your GPU unrecognized, etc?

We'd be happy to help but personally I don't quite understand your question.

Run the V7 client installer again. It will add the GPU slot automatically, while keeping current setup.

That will work. If you need to add a GPU slot, here's a method that doesn't involve the installer: 1) using the drop-down menu in the upper right-hand corner, change V7's mode to Advanced, 2) press the Configure button, 3) Go to the Slots tab and hit the Add button, 4) select the GPU option and click Add, 5) hit Save.
Either way.

The V7 installer should automatically try to set up a GPU slot. Did it? If not, I think we need more information.

If for some reason the GPU slot still isn't detected, or is detected but doesn't seem to "work," you may need to update GPUs.txt.

What GPU do you have?
