You have not installed BOINC properly. Have you clicked on the advanced tab during installation and deselected protected mode? gdf |

well i have tried to run this but it kept's saying a need a cell processor to do the work. What version BOINC do you have ? When it starts, what are the first few messages it prints, specifically the two lines about co-processors ? What version NVIDIA drivers do you have ? |

......cell processor message.... I'm getting this intermittently since upgrading to 6.4.5 from 6.4.2 .. have downloaded some GPU WUs - then the occasional message about not having the correct processor. Not happening on my other machines running 6.4.2 |

I have the same problem. I have a GeForce 8800 GT - 256/512/1024M - 112 shader units Linux gametime 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:15:32 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux (Ubuntu - Intrepid) and I get "full-atom molecular dynamics on Cell process is not available on your type of computer. I did do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure boinc-client and the messages went away but I still do not have any work units. |

I get the same error. Using custom ForceWare 180.84 Drivers so they support a 9700M GT 512 MB GDDR3. My card is CUDA enabled and SETI Cuda is running fine. GPU GRID will not run for me. |

After a nice long reboot. Everything works now. Go figure. |
