I have a single nVidia GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 on Windows 8
I understand GUI miner supports only OpenCL so I am using cudaminer (which I got working after overcoming a few hurdles since nVidia somehow ignores old cards in newer driver files available for downloads]
Anwyays,
cudaminer.exe says :

But GPUShark says:
GPU and memory usage
- GPU: 0.0%, max: 0.0%
- GPU memory: 66.5%
- GPU memory controller: 0.0%
So I have 2 questions:
1. Am I making cudaminer.exe use CUDA or atleast the GPU's single GPU cycle or no??
2. Frankly I have never seen 3-digit khash/sec in my life until now! Can I use CUDA with some tool supporting scrypt for mining Litecoins ?
Thanks.
