GTX Titan wont fold

It seems that a lot of GPU problems revolve around specific versions of drivers. Though NVidia has their own support structure, you can often learn from information reported by others who fold.

GTX Titan wont fold

Post by JEmlay »

I upgraded from SLI 8800 GTX's to a single GTX Titan and now my projects won run. In the meantime I took my folding to another machine which has a 650 Ti and it's doing the same exact thing. FahMon just shows 0% and never changes. Win7 x64 on the Titan and Win8 on the 650 Ti. Using Nvidia v314.09. I blew out F@H and reinstalled for a clean log. Here's the Titan log:

Welcome to the F@H Forum JEmlay,

According to the log you have posted, the v6 client is trying to run FahCore_11 on the GTX Titan which is the problem. You see, FahCore_11 will not run on the GTX Titan as it is incompatible. How about you uninstall v6 and instead, you can install V7 which you can get by clicking the "Start folding" button on this site (http://folding.stanford.edu/) which should automatically configure our system to fold without you noticing any impact on your system performance. Feel free to ask any more questions if the need arise.

FYI, the titan won't fold unless idle with the default V7 install.

That's correct, GTX Titan will use FahCore_15 and will eventually use FahCore_17 once it is released to the public (No ETA).
