GPU not supported or current driver flag, again :(

Why

I had to do a shut down and now the single 8800GT is giving me the FAH flag that the GPU is not supported or the driver is not! This is with just one card installed.
It worked fine with a single card untill I did a reboot a few days later.

Many of you read my last post on this when both twin 8800GT cards were installed with the two step device/driver install when the second card would raise the fah flag 'GPU/driver issue.

OS Xp SP2
I've been through the appropriate method of driver removal in the OS and in safe mode with DCC Pro.
Tried both 182.06 & 181.20 drivers with the full driver removal.
using -gpu 1 for the single card in set up

What the heck am I doing wrong


Also, I have been using the second GPU client (Sys tray for Nvidia) in the advanced download section and had also tried the first one (Sys tray) too.

EDIT:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the third GPU client XP/2003 GPU Console is not the client to use for multiple GPU clients.

I use the console client on all of my folding GPUs, works great and has higher performance and ppd output in most cases then the tray client


you've set the proper gpu 0/1/2/3 flags? and have seperate machine IDs, etc?

also you're running a stable overclock and the card is recognized by windows?

have you tried a complete and proper driver reinstall? maybe the new 186.08 drivers? also have you made sure the card is powered?
