    I have been runing this card with BOINC for a long. The card is recognized by all the other softwared on this machine, but it won't show up in tasks.

    I have uninstalled the card and BOINC with subsequent reinstalls with no luck.

    Help!

      Your problem is the driver that you use. That driver wrecks work here at Einstein due to a bug in them. So the project has blocked clients that use those drivers, they will not get work for as long as that driver is used. All 295.xx drivers have the bug.

      Your options are to uninstall the 295.xx drivers and install earlier ones, or install the 301.42 (WHQL) instead.

      See [Update Windows NVIDIA drivers to 301.34!] Not shipping Windows BRP4 CUDA tasks to drivers 290.53 ... 300.99 for more information.

        Thanks for the really fast answer. I uninstalled the driver and installed the 276 driver for the Quadro 6000, but am not seeting my GPU in tasks...

        What am I doing wrong? Do I need to go back further?

            Hey Jord,

            Little slow on the uptake here. Waited for communications and when that happened all is well again. My 6000 is crankin' again.

            Thank you for the help.

            Harald
