Nvidia Quadro K5100M not folding

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.

A quick search on this GPU did not turn up information on whether it supports double precision calculations. The GPU folding projects currently active require some use of double precision at critical points in the simulation. So that may be why you did not get any assignment.

If it does support DP, then there is also this - Subject: Temporary server outages

K5100M is Kepler based and should support double precision.

Yes, being Kepler based it could have DP support. But not all of the mobile chips enabled that, just used the SP calculating capacity. In this case it appears from your link that DP is available on the K5100M.

Thanks for the confirmation.
