When I start BOINC via the BOINC Manager, GPUs are recognized and all is well. When I start BOINC from a command line in "c:\program files\boinc" with either the command "boinc", or "boinc --detach_console", BOINC runs, but in the BOINC manager indicates the GPUs as "missing". Running under the same local user account in both situations. When BOINC is started via the BOINC Manager:

Start the command from the commandline as boinc.exe --detach_console, then it'll work. |

Start the command from the commandline as boinc.exe --detach_console, then it'll work. Many thanks. That did the trick. "boinc --detach_console" fails, but "boinc.exe --detach_console" works. Donating in your honor. |

I've gone further than that and posted it to the BOINC alpha list. There, between some detailed posts I made and a couple of volunteer developers answering they managed to find what possibly causes this - a missing argument in the BOINC code that states that the boinc executable can just be boinc, not always needs to be boinc.exe - so they're testing that now and that will probably lead to this being fixed in a future version of BOINC. So thank you for reporting it. |

A good day. GPUs on the target machine now working, I gave them $75 in honor of "SETI@HOME user Ageless", and maybe even a tweek to the code. Cheers. Now if only I could figure out how to edit the thread title and add "solved". |
