GUIMiner won't recognize GPU or CPU #72

I'm trying to set GUIMiner on my Windows Server 2008R2 box but when I start it it lists "No OpenCL device" in the drop down list.

I have an Intel Xeon E3-1230 proc and a Geforce 8400 GS card which isn't great but it's still compatible with CUDA and has the latest drivers installed.

Is it possible that it can't see the hardware because I typically log on to the server through an RDP session?

Hi, that's very possible - I haven't heard from anyone trying to run through RDP (or on Windows Server for that matter). One thing you might try is a program such as GPU Caps Viewer that can show you if OpenCL is working properly with your video card + driver setup. The problem doesn't sound specific to the GUI to me.
