GPU2 beta client for NVIDIA now released

We've started our open beta release.  See the post here
http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=3188
We will put it on our main download page when it gets a bit further through the beta QA process.  This is an early release.

Note that this is still a very early beta and there's lots to fix.  In particular, we need to correct some issues with the visualization and the EUE handling.  However, we've got that in our roadmap and should be rolling that out over the next few weeks or so (hopefully sooner, but it may be longer depending on how tricky these bugs are to handle).

If this release looks to run well for most people, we'll put it on our main download page.

Hi,

Thanks for releasing fah 4 Nvidia GPUs. Wanted to inform two things (From layman perspective in WinVista 32bit)

a) Wrt officialy released NVidia drivers only 174.55 mentioned in cuda_get.html nvidia page works. The latest 175.16 driver won't do. NOTE THAT if 175.16 driver is installed the fah client just keeps on doing (1) getting new work unit (2) failing to do the actual work (3) go back to (1) in a loop.

b) The Display/Visualisation option selection leads to the viewer.exe stopped working notification from Windows Vista. However the fah client will continue processing the work unit so no problem in that sense. I assume/hope the Visualization problem you mentioned above also includes this bug in its list.
