Hi. I have been reading a bit on the forums, and it seems that I may be wasting my time, trying to mine with NVIDIA.

I am using

NVIDIA GeForce 7050 / NVIDIA nForce 620i

(I don't think I can use CUDA for this)

and also using the scrypt version of GUIminer to mine for LTC

I joined a pool.

I tried to follow instructions as well as possible, though most of the time the instructions leap about all over the place, expecting me to know what they are doing I suppose.

Nonetheless, I click on 'Start Mining'

but I get a message that says: 'NOTHING TO MINE ON, EXITING'

And I theorize that it isn't mining, even though I clicked the button to start mining.

Can anyone help?
Today is the day that the Lord has made, lets be glad and rejoice in it

Only upper 8000er GForce (I think the lowest was 8800) and upwards support CUDA and OpenCL. So you need a newer Card if you realy want to mine on GPU (only makes sense for Scrypt/Scrypt-Jane Altcoins now).

So does that mean that I won't be able to mine with my current NVIDIA card?
