Default How to set up GX2 and F@H?
Looking to set up a recently purchased gx2 for folding. Anyway when I try to open the systray client it says gpu is not supported. Is this because I just downloaded the latest nv drivers? Or because I used to have a 5870 in the machine?

Do you have at least one of the cores working? Or is it just the second one thats giving errors.

Ok then you need to extend your desktop. Your GX2 should have both DVI ports filled and extended to both. Basically once you connect a second monitor/dummy plug then you can fold on the second GX2 core.

If you dont have a second monitor heres how to make a dummy plug.
