I see a ton of posts about AMD/ATI cards not being found but nothing for NVIDIA. I also see some posts for Linux but not Windows (except those running it as a service...)

I am NOT running it as a service. GPUs are NVIDIA GTX770s and the current driver is 331.65. I've had this issue off and on for a while now. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't...I've tried closing / stopping and restarting but that doesn't help either.

Nevermind, I think I know why. I'm doing a remote desktop to my computer...I'm almost positive that after a reboot and logging in locally this is happening but I'll have to double check when I get home. Sorry.

The original message was a bit cryptic, but this one shows in 7.2.28 when you use fast user switching or remote desktop.

The developers are trying to get it more clear for a future version of BOINC.
