Thanks for the feedback.  Yes, I am currently running Windows 10 on all my machines. Unfortunately, my computer running AMD processor is actually the one I don't have a problem with.  I am unable to download the most recent version of BOINC to this computer.

Since I posted this request / note, I received updates from Windows / Microsoft that needed restarts to complete.  So for whatever reason my impacted machine is now working again after these restarts.

I do GREATLY appreciate you responding to my note.

Thanks and have a GREAT DAY!

Is the Intel 630 you are using a stand alone gprahics or is that part of your cpu? Is that a laptop or a desktop? If a laptop and you are using the cpu based gpu be sure you have very good cooling for that laptop or it will shorten the life of it.

I upgraded my 15" 2018

I upgraded my 15" 2018 MacBook Pro to MacOS15.1.1. Trying to run Bionic caused errors  and suggested a reinstall. I reinstalled Bionic. Now it runs, but Bionic no longer detects the to GPUs (an AMD Radeon Pro 555X 4 GB and an Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB). What must I do to get Bionic to find and use the two GPUs?

Probably reload the graphics drivers for both gpu's. BUT using the Intel gpu means you should be very careful running cpu tasks as the Intel gpu IS built into the cpu.
