(moderation:
I have a NEW GK208 GPU GT630 with 384 CUDA Cores and it won't fetch work no matter what I do.
This is in the messages at init:
Win7-2600K
12 9/14/2013 12:23:22 PM CUDA: NVIDIA GPU 0: GeForce GT 630 (driver version 326.80, CUDA version 5.50, compute capability 3.5, 2048MB, 1958MB available, 692 GFLOPS peak)
13 9/14/2013 12:23:22 PM OpenCL: NVIDIA GPU 0: GeForce GT 630 (driver version 326.80, device version OpenCL 1.1 CUDA, 2048MB, 1958MB available, 692 GFLOPS peak)
This is what happens when it tries to fetch work:

I've tried all known good drivers and also the latest Beta drivers and detached/attached without success.
HELP!

You're Not asking for BRP3 (Arecibo, GPU) or (Perseus Arm Survey), these are the type of work that have GPU apps, you need to go to your project preferences and enable one or the other, or both.

Turns out I had to re-install

Turns out I had to re-install Windoz because somehow the old ATI files messed things up.
It's working now!
Thanks!

RE: Turns out I had to

No, it's more likely that you had the two hosts on different venues, with different apps selected, Boinc was working on that host, and asking for Nvidia work, it just didn't receive it.

Next time, instead of reinstalling Windows and updating that and thus sit fruitlessly for hours on end staring at a screen, clicking OK, try to clean out the old drivers. Much easier. Here's a how to.
In the mean time, as can be glanced at here, Claggy was right: That system was asking for NVIDIA work (CUDA: req 86400.00 sec, 1.00 instances; est delay 0.00), just not getting it because the wrong applications were chosen.
