Both are running at the same time, the GPU1 just started showing progress. Not getting any load on my second card though. CPU usage is 100% though which is twice as high then when I was running 1 client.

*Edit* I'll post a screen shot of fahmon once it shows PPD for both. I was getting 2000-2500 on one card before. Something tells me I'll be getting 800-1000 on these if they are both running on one card >.<

whats fahmon showing for you? maybe 9.2 is showing it funky?

Darius Silver · 02-22-09

It was funny, I couldn't find the extended desktop with my mouse on the right side (where I assumed it would be). But when I did the screen shot it shows it on the left, it fun to loose your mouse on a fake monitor XD

Oh, it is going half as fast as it should be, so I guess its safe to say I'm running two GPU2 clients on one card lol, go ATI, show em your muscles XD

huh.. how does that work? the second gpu has to be working as they both have atleast 3%....

and ouch.. you have a 511 pointer...

whats the points on both gpus now? 0 points doesn't seem right if they are both work.

Its showing 980 and 970 on the two clients now. That's down from 2500 I was getting early with one card. There is no heat coming from my second card like there is the first, I don't know how, but they both have to be running on that one card.

alrighty.. let's try this... let's shut down one client and see if there is a significant increase in PPD. if tehre is then we know for sure that its been running off one gpu.

and i forgot to ask.. is X-fire disabled?

Darius Silver · 02-22-09

Yeah, x-fire is disabled. Just turned off GPU0 client, will edit this post with the PPD in a few. Up to 1261 PPD now, seems to be rising slowly.

nafljhy · 02-22-09

were you using other drivers before? if you were, how did they react? what slot is your second gpu in?

EDIT: nvm, your mobo only has 2x PCIe x16 slots. tbh.. this is the first time i've ever seen GPU2 run 2x instances on one 1x gpu..

i know my settings work as i took them directly off my dedicated gpu folding rig... :\

Darius Silver · 02-22-09

I just started folding with this machine about, oh 2 days ago XD @1944 PPD now. Second card is in my second PCI 2.0 x16 slot, of which I only have two anyways. Hmm, I think I'll just stick with one card I guess until 9.3 drivers come out, then I'll try again. I can't see it being anything but driver issues now. Sorry for turning your guide thread into mostly my problems thread >.< It's a great and easy to follow guide, just seems ATI hates me at the moment

no problems about the thread. its all about helping.

hmm.. would you mind trying previous drivers or is that a no go with certain programs?
