Windows Vista 32-bit

Highlights of the Catalyst 8.4 Windows release include:

ATI Catalyst support for Stanford Universities new beta Folding@Home GPU client (for the ATI Radeon HD 2000 Series, and ATI Radeon HD 3000 Series)

  • Stanford has recently release a new Folding@Home GPU beta client, found at http://folding.typepad.com/news/2008/04/gpu2-open-beta.html and is supported on the ATI Radeon HD 2400 and higher and ATI Radeon HD 3400 and higher series of products under Windows XP and Windows Vista.  (Currently only one of the GPU cores on the ATI Radeon HD 3870X2 can be used by the new beta Folding@Home GPU client)

  • The new Folding@Home beta GPU client delivers significant performance improvements in folding calculations, and enables users to fold far more complex proteins

  • Please see the Stanford’s FAQ for more details about their new Folding@Home GPU client http://folding.stanford.edu/English/FAQ-ATI2

  • Note:  The new beta Folding@Home client still has some known issues (Multi-GPU CrossFire configurations under Windows Vista do not currently work with the new client, and in certain conditions, crashes can occur when running the new beta GPU Folding@Home client concurrently with 3D applications or playing back video content.)  Please submit any crash reports and please tell us about any issues on the Folding@Home forums (http://foldingforum.org/) in the "Beta testing the GPU2 win client subforums.

  • We invite everyone to join the ATI folding team (team number 51394) regardless of whether you’re using the CPU client or newest beta GPU version of Stanford’s Folding@Home client.
