Returning Folder needs help!

Post by will25u »

OK, so I have downloaded F@H and have been a contributor before. With the whole COViD stuff, I wanted to help again, but am hitting my head on a wall. Before, I just installed F@H and it worked. But now, on multiple machines on multiple networks I get nothing. Here is my log on my home PC. Maybe it is just lack of work but one line did catch my eye. Anyway, any help is appreciated.

Try reinstalling the Nvidia drivers. It looks like it can't find the cuda and OpenCL drivers.

Do you have a firewall or anti-malware software running? The FAHClient process needs the same access for transfers as a web browser, some of these block these uploads and downloads over HTTP if they are not from a "known" browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and so on.

Upload and download may need an exception added for the FAHclient executable, it is transferring over ports 8080 and 80 using HTTP or HTTPS.

One of the first things the client does after startup is download a copy of the current GPUs.txt file. If your GPU is newer than the list contained in the initial installer, the client will not recognize your card until after it has received a new copy.

For drivers, the video drivers installed through Windows Update leave out the necessary OpenCL support. Download the drivers directly from AMD or nVidia.
