I am lucky enough to bring on a brand new little Toshiba lappy. It has an ATi HD4200 GPU, can anyone tell me which projects will it get GPU work as I am not getting any from PG or MW so far.

Well, I have a lappy with an integrated Radeon 3430 and it's been running Collatz fine. I didn't run into anything else that it ran, but that was long ago and some of the options available now didn't exist back then.Quote:

Moo! Wrapper is definitely going to be the highest payout for it. What kind of CPU does it have? Might have to play with the amount of CPU project you're crunching on it to get the max credits out of Moo.
The CPU is: AuthenticAMD AMD Athlon(tm) II P360 Dual-Core Processor [Family 16 Model 6 Stepping 3].Quote:

ABC is a project where the WU's vary greatly in the amount of time they take to calculate. From minutes to days. I stopped crunching when their progress indicator exceeded 100%. Looks like they've capped it at 100% now, so all the work they're doing now is above and beyond their initial stated goal for the project. They also released an updated app a while ago, to support processing the larger numbers they were getting in to. That App was a lot less efficient than the old one, which translated to a huge drop in CS/second. Another reason to have moved away. :)Quote:

Ok, I will NNW ABC then for the little lappy and stay on my usuals for now. :)
I'm looking at add a box for the push that has a HD 4200. I'm not having any luck running anything, Collatz, Moo, etc. It's not seeing the gpu. It is an integrated gpu but says it's an HD 4200.
I check the settings in BM to use the gpu. When I check Bam it dose not have the check box to allow AMD work only cpu work. Any suggestions?
Mike, my first guess would be old drivers that don't have the right SDK package or no Open CL support. If it's and ATI GPU, then Moo! and especially Collatz should run on it. The only problem I can think of is if it doesn't have enough video RAM to crunch. You can check that possibility by going into the Event Log in BOINC, and seeing if it's disabling the GPU or whatever it's saying after it searches for what GPU is installed. It will be close to the top of the log when you first start up BOINC and next to where it lists your CPU specs.
Yeah BM says no usable gpu. Brand new box and thought the updates were already done. NOPE.. I'm updating the video driver now. Hoping that does the trick. Thanks.Quote:

I refuse to answer that question.

NICE! It'll be "slow", but every bit helps! :D Moo! should give the best credits, with Collatz as a good option if the temps get too high on Moo!...:cool:
Yeah, No OC'ing it's an HP box. I'll watch it. I'm hoping to get one more on line before the Big Push. Thanks for the advice.Quote:

Get that thing doing some Mini-Collatz WU´s....Should be very quick to run, and they pay around 350-400 @ pieceQuote:

Once the BOINC client acknowledges you have a GPU that can crunch, you shouldn't have any problem getting work from Collatz.
I did just that. Upgraded the driver and it's crunching away. The problem is that it says I have a AMD ATI Radeon HD 2300/2400/3200 (RV610) (368MB) driver: 1.4.1457. Windows says I have an HD 4200. :-s I'm only using 3 cpu cores to free up one for the gpu. Looks like it may have reduced the crunching times. I still can not get Collatz to crunch. I'll play with it some more tomorrow.Quote:

Not sure why I'm not getting the 6k for doing these but if I stop these Moo wu's and go back to four cores, The extra Cpu core gets 200 points per wu. See below.

Maybe this lowend gpu s not worth running. Unless someone has some advice or can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks,
Mike.
Thanks for the explanation Mike I didn't understood a shitt but it was very interesting

I think a low end GPU is not worth the electricity it will consume unless it is extra, not taking away from the CPU. Thing is, Slicker's mini Collatz WUs are perfect for this scenario. Wouldn't have to shut down any cores, and you get GPU credits too. I wonder why it won't run Collatz? Anyone have any ideas on that?
I'm beginning to think that this HP box has an IGPU masked as a HD4200. When I check the box on the Moo website it says the coprocessor is: AMD ATI Radeon HD 2300/2400/3200 (RV610) (368MB) driver: 1.4.1457Quote:

If you run GPU-Z on it, what does it list it as?:confused:

My gpu specs say:: (from the Collatz site)
CAL ATI Radeon HD 2300/2400/3200 (RV610) (341 MB)....
MY driver# = 1.4.556
My OS is XP PRO...
Specs from my Device Manager....
Driver date = 02/10/2010
Driver Version = 8.710.0.0
You might have to go with this older driver...Looks like they borked it on the new driver versions.
Im running win 7 Pro 64 so I'll take a look at the driver you mentioned.Quote:
