BOINC gives me this message from Einstein@home:

"Your settings do not allow fetching tasks for AMD/ATI GPU."

I enabled GPU use in the Einstein@home settings and it's the only project giving me this error message.

What could be the problem, any ideas?

Your computers are hidden.  Unless you allow people willing to help, to view your hardware details, or you give a lot more details about your setup, you can only expect the most general of advice.

As the message suggests, it seems likely you haven't configured your preferences (both compute and project prefs which are on separate pages) correctly so as to allow BOINC to use your GPU here.  Or maybe you didn't 'save' any changes you did make?  If you 'un-hide' your computers, people would be able to check those sorts of things.

Edit:  I notice you joined this project the same day I did and you are just getting around to making your first post. Surprised  Where have you been hiding all this time. Laughing

Cheers,
Gary.
