Title: Lacking OpenCl support (Bitminter Client)
Post by: Bitminter canary on April 20, 2013, 01:55:33 AM
Hello,

After opening the bitminter client I get the following message:
No OpenCL-compatible GPU's detected
Lacking OpenCl-support. If you want to use GPU's, please install the latest drivers
from your graphics card manufacturer

I have Windows Vista, NVIDEA Go 7600
I allready downloaded the latest drivers for the NVIDEA Go 7600 from the NVIDEA website,
but I am still getting the same message.

Does anybody know why this is/how to get it working?

Im not 100% but i think your nvidia is the problem you need an amd video card with an amd gpu with open cl which is the driver i think for the amd gpus.   so you need a radeon card not nvidia is your problem i might be wrong but i think thats it.

Looks like a laptop GPU, some are not supported at all by bitminter and if it did work it would get a really low hashrate.
