Hi, so I have an old laptop that my mom uses...would like to enable SETI@home on the GPU crunching...it's a nVidia Quadro NVS140M based board of T61 with WinXP on it... How to define the allocated RAM for that CUDA based GPU & crunch SETI@home? Now it's using 128MB, & I need it on 256MB at least... ;) non-profit org. Play4Life in Zagreb, Croatia, EU |

Usually you can set additional memory to the onboard videocard through the BIOS, but in the case of BOINC I don't think this helps, as BOINC will only 'see' and use the amount of memory that's on the GPU, not any additional that's split from main memory and appointed to this GPU. At least, that used to be the case. Not sure if it still is. |

Win7 didn't help...also, had to download the latest drivers to have CUDA enabled! But BOINC still see only 128MB or dedicated RAM...why doesn't it see more (shared RAM)? :/ non-profit org. Play4Life in Zagreb, Croatia, EU |
