I am able to manually add a GPU, once its found a task it downloads it then the moment its about to fold
The error I get:

I have the latest NVIDIA Drivers, I've attempted to uninstall and reinstall, manually add the GPU.TXT File, change the opencl and cuda to 0 and 1 from -1 but doing that doesn't fix it either.

Failry sure Joe_H posted the "fix" for this 7.6.9 client in another thread … It did involve GPU.txt - iirc there was a reboot as well … I'll see if I can find it.

I've attempted doing the GPU.txt fix and rebooting my PC but this did not fix the issue

The error is there:
Code: Select all
16:51:35: OpenCL: Not detected: clGetPlatformIDs() returned -1001
It may be the result of a known issue in FAH 7.6.9.
I would first ensure that you really have installed the drivers, incl. OpenCL. In Windows 10, right clic on the start button -> Device Manager -> Display Adaptors -> right clic on your GPU, chose Properties -> tab Driver -> button Driver details - you should see 2 OpenCL.dll (one 32 and one 64 bit). If not, you have to reinstall the drivers. If you do, it's better to first uninstall FAH (also click the checkbox "data"), and only reinstall it after a reboot following the drivers' installation.
Then I would recommend using rather the version 7.6.10 of FAH:
https://foldingathome.org/beta/
According to some, it doesn't have that GPU issue. The older version 7.5.1 is better still (maybe you downloaded it in the past?)

Ah … it wasn't Joe_H but PantherX here
viewtopic.php?f=106&t=34493#p327123 but if you have tried that and the latest drivers I'm stumped (but that is easy to do) … It feels like the OpenCL drivers are missing/not install/not identified correctly but someone will know how to sort it - Sorry I couldn't be any help.

Check it and yes I do have the OpenCL.dll's
I have installed the beta version but now i get this:
17:30:23:ERROR:WU01:FS01:Failed to start core: OpenCL device matching slot 1 not found, make sure the OpenCL driver is installed or try setting 'opencl-index' manually
17:30:23:WU01:FS01:Starting
17:30:23:ERROR:WU01:FS01:Failed to start core: OpenCL device matching slot 1 not found, make sure the OpenCL driver is installed or try setting 'opencl-index' manually
I had gotten this before so I manually switched the OpenCL value to 0 which then gave me the error I originally posted about.
I had the old version before but had this error as well so I was told to update to the current version (Non Beta)

Did you uninstall (incl. Data) and reinstall, or just upgraded?
If you just upgraded, the faulty configuration may have affected the new installation. The client does a better job at detecting the hardware from scratch than at adapting to any changes.

Yes I did remove all data with the uninstall

Well. Then I would recommend uninstalling the drivers (Device Manager, Uninstall device), reboot, and reinstall the latest from Nvidia:
https://www.nvidia.fr/Download/index.aspx (you do have a Nvidia graphics card, right?). This after having uninstalled FAH again. And then reinstall 7.5.1. That would be the safest bet.

You also could run a scannow to check whether your Windows is missing something. Search "cmd", click "Run as administrator". In the command prompt, type:
When the scan is over, run this, too:
At the end, you should have a message telling that no problem has been found.

Another thing. I never saw that in Windows, but in Linux, that error can come from a permission problem: FAH hat to run as root to access OpenCL. If your Windows account doesn't have Admin privilege (search "your info", it should say "Administrator" under your username), it might produce the same result, for the installer will make FAH run under your username (check: Task Manager -> Details).

Hey!
I had tried uninstalling Drivers last time but that didn't work, however, I used DDU to make sure every single trace of every driver was gone then I used the beta version and its now working.
GPU folding is amazing! My CPU has a estimated of 60k points per day and my GPU has 1.3 million

Glad it worked. Happy folding, at last!

Just in case you aren't aware (but you have a passkey so I guess you will be) there are a few requirements before you get QRB (whish is what the estimates include see
https://foldingathome.org/support/faq/points/ and you can check your Bonus Status here

Glad it all got sorted eventually
