guiminer - only CPU miner shows up

[economicsjunkie]

- I am running a windows 2003 server with a ATI Radeon 7000

- I installed the "OpenCL Driver" from http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_xp-32.aspx

- When I launch guiminer.exe the only OpenCL device I see is this:

[0-0] Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.0

Is this what I should be seeing or should there be a GPU in the options as well?

If so, how can I make it appear?

Here. This is what you need.

Ah great! Which of those do you think I should download, given that I have Windows Server 2003 x32 ?

[economicsjunkie]

Windows Server 2003 SP2 that is (there is no SP3 for Server)

[wolf902]

oh wow...uhm...you can try the XP version. That would be the best bet or try running it in compatibility mode.

[economicsjunkie]

version 2.1 ?

[wolf902]

XP 32 bit- http://developer.amd.com/Downloads/ati-stream-sdk-v2.3-xp32.exe

XP 64 Bit-http://developer.amd.com/Downloads/ati-stream-sdk-v2.3-xp64.exe

ah ok, i just installed v 2.1 because i read a bunch of people had problems with 2.3 before i read your response. can i just install 2.3 over 2.1?

[wolf902]

well did 2.1 install correctly and is now working?

[economicsjunkie]

v 2.1 was installed successfully.

But when I start guiminer it still gives me the same option under Device.

[wolf902]

try 2.3 and when you open AMD APP Kernal Analyzer in the top right courner it will say object code then under it will say format with a drop down list. set it to your gpu card.

wow crap im retarted, ATi Radeon 7000 (03/22/2002)

Your card is old. I do not see that it has Open CL support..

[economicsjunkie]

Oh, dang :-/ What card would you recommend I replace it with?

[wolf902]

AMD Radeon™ HD 6990 Graphics

Best one for mining currently.
