Able to fold with CPU, but not GPU

[Chaotrix91]

Hi everyone,

Not sure what info to provide initially.

CPU is folding fine, but GPU isn't.
I've downloaded/installed the latest stable drivers for my graphics card (R9 290) - initially when I first installed the FAH client the GPU seemed to be working, but after a minute or two it stopped and won't start since.

GPU status stays as "ready", when I click "Fold" it just shows Waiting on: "WS Assignment"

Not sure where to start troubleshooting/what other info would be useful to get some assistance.

TIA

GPU status stays as "ready", when I click "Fold" it just shows Waiting on: "WS Assignment"

"Waiting on: WS Assignment" means that your client is contacting the servers to get work a unit. Due to the increased demand on the servers recently, this may take some time as the client may have to retry a number of times before getting an assignment. The Folding@Home team is working on this issue; it is not a problem with your client. Leave it running and it will eventually receive a work unit.

I've downloaded/installed the latest stable drivers for my graphics card (R9 290) - initially when I first installed the FAH client the GPU seemed to be working, but after a minute or two it stopped and won't start since.

To give you more help with this, please post your log file as described in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=26036

Hi,

Thanks for such a quick response - I've pasted my log as advised.

Welcome to Folding@ Home!

Your card configuration looks good, just be patient and it should get work someday.
