CUDA is Nvidia graphics cards only. Your AMD RX480 graphics card does not support CUDA.

 

Appears to be set up fine it just needs to do some updating then it will start working when you get a work unit.

Spotty is right, my original post was baseless.

You still haven't received a work unit?

Can you post your logs from the Log tab in a spoiler box so I can have a better look at what is going on.

That's because you have the Viewer/Visualiser open. It's bugged, doesn't work on the Windows version of the software. It'll forever be stuck in the demo animation. That's why it's giving that error message. If you close the viewer the error message will stop.
