Hi everyone,

My Boinc (7.14.2) behaves weirdly when trying to utilize the Vega11 component of my Ryzen 2400g (running Win10 Pro).

When the computer is running headless without a display, the main "Task" Section notes "GPU not found".
I have to physically connect a display for it to work. After that I can actually remove the display and the GPU will still be used.

Any ideas on how to fix this? I usually run the machine headless and access it remotely.

Edit: I realize the log said "remote desktop in use, etc....".
But even after I log out of the remote desktop, the GPU wont pick up work and remain disabled.




This is what the log says:

Alright, after trying different searches I finally found the "magic" keyword combination to reveal that this topic has been discussed dozens of times before....sorry for that.
I guess this thread can be closed
