Title: guiminer help pls
Post by: jekkler on June 21, 2011, 01:29:57 AM
So I have GUI miner installed I have a geforce 8400m... I have the openGL from nvidia and the AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing... to run my cpu before I got the Nvidia opengl... Anyways I cannot get the GUIminer to recognize that my gpu even exsists, it will only list me cpu running under the AMD program, I actually have an intel as well.

when I use caps viewer... I can select between the amd and nvidia opengl, but i cannot in guiminer... any help pls?

I know this isn't an answer to your question but the hardware you have is kinda weak. I know its a downer but I can't really see you being able to make any money unless you don't have to pay for power. Are you thinking about getting some different hardware?

also being a noob, i'm not completely sure either; but make sure what ever card your trying to add supports Open CL, and that you have dummy plugs in what ever your trying to use

Same here - power isnt a issue - and the CPU is running at 2 Mhash/s - so if i get any boost from GPU it would be worth it.
