After install a 2nd NVVIDA FX1800 on Vista SP1 with BOINC 6.10.18 I've modified the cc_config.xml file adding a row:

<use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus>

and then re-read the config file:

6/18/2010 12:54:56 PM Re-reading cc_config.xml
6/18/2010 12:54:56 PM Re-read config file
6/18/2010 12:54:56 PM Config: use all coprocessors
6/18/2010 12:54:56 PM log flags: file_xfer, sched_ops, task

but Collatz continue running only 1 WU.
notice that vista, GPU-Z and HWmonitor see correctly the 2nd FX1800.

I've also restart BOINC and on startup log see only one log message:

NVIDIA GPU 0: Quadro FX 1800 (driver version 19100, CUDA version 2030, compute capability 1.1, 768MB, 176 GFLOPS peak)

seems lack a 2nd message type "NVIDIA GPU 1: ...", right ?

Did you connect a monitor or dummy plug to the second card?

Did you extend the desktop across them?

See also Only using one of two GPUs.

Ok, this was the problem. Now the GPUs works.

Thank you.
