I actually have two machines working. The first, my Core2 Duo
with Win2K was the one that was out of work and stuck. I wasn't
too hurt by it as it can only process 2 work units in a given
time.

I have a Cuda capable GPU on the Duo, but there is no Cuda
driver for it under Win2k.

I am planning another system with Core2 Quad and Cuda card.

Have you looked into upgrading your Duo CPU to a quad? I believe
both use socket 775, so it should be quick (assuming the power
supply is adequate). Upgrade the OS, and you're crunching more
for less money.

Have you tried the Cuda driver under Win2K? It might work, even
if not specifically written for it.
