 :) Hi everybody,

I've four computer at home, three with windows xp pro x64 sp2 (English MUI Spaniard)
& one laptop with xp pro x86 sp3 (Spaniard).

two computer with xp pro x64 sp2 & GPU NVIDIA show correct GPU boxes and
temperature too, [AMD Athlon64 & AMD Athlon64 x2].

one computer with xp pro x64 sp2 & GPU ATI the squares for the GPU is not shown
(in this computer is shown only one temperature with four cores working in BOINC and the
temperature of the cores is absolutely the same) [AMD Phenon64 x4].  :(

laptop with xp pro x86 sp3 & GPU ATI, same as above with the GPU   ????????? [AMD Turion64].  :(

TTrottle 1.56 x64 in the three computers with XP x64 and 
TTrottle 1.57 x86 in XP x86 laptop installed (and working in the temperature Trottle).

Cheers / Corsair

Hi,

As far as I know the AMD processor only has one temperature sensor for all cores, so with AMD all cores report the same temperature.
At the moment the  AMD/ATI GPU is not supported, because as far as I know this GPU is not yet used in any BOINC project I know of.
But I will add support for it, if I have some users who actually use the AMD/ATI GPU and can do some testing. I will get one myself next week so I can do some testing as well.

tell me how could I help with that and I'll try.

thanks for the quick answer.

I'm in the middle of testing some things for reading and setting the CUDA run priority on the fly. To see if I can get some extra work out of it  ;D.
It's on my list and I will see if it is possible.

Hi Fred,

as you said and I've check about CUDA is only for NVIDIA GPU, but as
"Whish List" could be fine to have at least the status/Temperature of
ATI GPUs, just for info, with no Throttle as there is no way of Throttling
it, because there is no BOINC software designed at this moment.  :'(

Cheears all, Corsair.

P.D. English is not my mother tongue, but for my job I've to work everyday,
everytime in English, as I'm a mariner and as captain of Tankers (Oil, Gas,
Chemicals) this of Throttling a valve (word, action) is the most frequent in
Loading and unloading a vessel, the point is that I never care about the
traslation to Spanish, becuase I've always been with non Spanish crews and
I know the meaning (in English) and the effects, and some days ago I look for
in the dictionary for the proper translation of such word, when I saw that I nearly
cried "regular (verb), regulador (name)", that's life when we mix our native
language with others that we use to use frequently, something like Spanglish.  ;)

It's on the wish list.
And I posted a signed driver in the FAQ board.

English is not my mother tongue; but as long as we understand each other.
But I stay in the US a couple of months a year so that helps some. ;D
Good sailing, even without a sail but you never know, as they start equipping (freight) ships with sails again.
