Title: GUIminer not detecting GFX card
Post by: sagan on June 07, 2011, 07:53:06 AM
I have 2 graphics cards in a single system, one GTX460 and one HD5830. Neither have driver issues when folding/BOINC, and the ATI card is hooked up and outputting to a physical monitor. But GUIminer only lists the GTX460 as the only openCL device (yes I've installed the complete catalyst 11.5 package).

Help?  :'(

The only time I had an issue like this was the card wasn't connected to a monitor. Try unplugging the monitor and replugging it and then restarting the miner program.

Look up dummy plugs, homie!  Or try out Linux.

eh, im starting to think it may be easier just to buy a dedicated mobo/sempron for the card...
