GTX 960 stopped being used when GTX 980 added (Resolved)

Post by Ricky »

I added a GTX 980 and it assumed work, but the GTX 960 is no longer being used by the client. Both cards are using the 357.52 driver, and the client recognizes both GPUs. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the client, with no benefit. Any suggestions?

I had a CPU slot and 1 GPU slot. Last night by looking at the FAH installation guides, I found how to add another GPU slot in the client control. So, the issue is now resolved. I thank you for offering help.

Adding the second slot probably was needed because you did not do a full reinstall. You would have had to also remove the existing data and configuration files when uninstalling. Then the client would have set up both slots for the two GPU's.
