Not getting AMD GPU work

Topic 203650

A few days ago, I installed a AMD 7870 in my computer, and now I want to start crunching again, but I don't get any work for the new GPU from Einstein. The funny thing is that I do get work for my Intel GPU, unexpectedly, as my monitor is connected to the AMD card, and I thought it would be difficult to enable both GPUs.

I am using Windows 10, with the latest 'Crimson ReLive' driver package, and BOINC appears to detect the GPU just fine. It is also asking Einstein for work for both GPUs, but unfortunately I only receive work for the Intel GPU.

Could someone please help me get my AMD GPU running as well? Why is Einstein not sending work for my AMD GPU when my computer is asking for it? Are we out of work?
