Hello,
I am trying to get my Nvidia Quatro FX 570 to run GPU WUs. I am getting the following error and not quite sure what the problem is:

Is it just not supported or is there another issue?
Thanks in advance!

Means that you will have to either downgrade to a driver 290.53 or earlier or update to a driver 301.00 or higher, because all the drivers in between had some very nasty bug that caused a lot of crashed CUDA tasks here (and on other BOINC projects).
Having said that, I'm not too sure that even with the right driver, the app would run successfully on that particular board because it has only 256 MB or RAM, according to BOINC. I tend to believe that the performance of the card is anyway not worth the effort to make it run. But feel free to try.
