Folding at home not working correctly

Hey guys !

I am having several problems with FaH recently...

1) The 375.xx drivers from Nvidia don't let FaH take control of the card and it keeps failing.

2)The advanced control panel keeps saying "connecting" but the web control panel seems to work...

 

Can someone help me?

Unfortunately, this has been a recurring problem that still hasn't been fixed.

 

I don't know if 375.63 works, but I've personally tried 373.06 and it works fine. If you want a specific version, you can get the particular driver you need from NVIDIA's website. http://www.geforce.com/drivers

It doesn't. Anything 375.xx is a failure.

If that's so, then I suppose one should stick with 373.06 for folding.

 

Fortunately downgrading is quite painless. I simply ran the 373.06 installer and it replaced it, and now I can fold, but one can also run DDU and uninstall it that way, then install the previous version.
