vmware killing my gpu PPD?

[BT!]

getting 3608.92 on a 1888 wu, used to get 6400+, so now with my gpu and cpu (2604ppd) combined i'm getting 6213 ppd.. less than my gpu alone.. and now my cpu is at 100% for nothing.. anyone know wtf is going on with this? i have my vmware-vmx set to low priority.

i'm an idiot.. i had the cpu usage percent set to just above 1/2 in the gpu configure area, lol.

wait.. what do you do? Im having the same problem. When I fold with my gpu only i get liek 8000PPD but with my cpu im getting leik 4 thousand PPD on the gpu and like 2.5k on the cpu. What did you do to fix that.

i read in your thread that we should be putting our GPU priority up to high, i'm going to try that right now and see what happens. :)

turned it off and it went to 7000 ppd on my gpu..

I have the same issue, I use a quad, so i use one core per gpu, and use the remaining two for vmware. I tried using all four cores on VMware, and it works for the most part if you raise the priority in your task manager (or prifinity) for the gpu folding to normal and lower the vmware to just below normal.

However it becomes unstable at somepoint usually (for me it did at least). I could get 24 hours and up to 4 days sometimes, but it was so random when it froze up, i think it has to do with which WU I got, not sure though.

my bro figured out what my problem was, in the gpu configuration panel under advanced thers Core Priority: this needs to be set to "Slightly higher" i wasn't doing that because i was setting it to high in task manager but.. apparently you still need to do it in the configure panel. mine is running fine now. :)

My GPU PPD dropped when I installed the vmware clients.I tryed putting the priority to normal (In the task manager) but that did not seem to work(so I put it back to low). then I right clicked on the GPU icon in the bottom right,then click Configure ,then advanced , then I put Core Priority to slightly higher,then OK.My ppd seems to be good now.In the Task Manager I have each VMware client Affinity Set on 2 cores .(VMware 1 client is on 0 and 2,VMware client 2 is on 1 and 3). Just after installing the VMware I OCed my PC to 3.2MHz and it froze after a few hours,so I went to 3MHz and I woke up this morning and it was frozen again,but i'm just going to leave it and see if it does it again.I never did a stress test I figured F@H VMware would be a good test

also, you can set up another instance of MVware, you dont have to leave a core per gpu, you just have to set the gpu priority's to high and the MVware instances to low and it should work fine.
