Maybe just try updating the project. The 4090 should work just fine, and updating the GPU drivers definitely shouldn't affect CPU tasks.

ATM there are tasks available https://grafana.kiska.pw/d/boinc/boinc?orgId=1&var-project=Asteroids@Home&from=now-30d&to=now

I have the same problem. The client is requesting CPU work, but does not got any task.
Had this behavior also on other projects. - Without any solution. I guess it's a issue on the server side.

Typical reasons for this error are:
1/ nvidia blackwell gen 5xxx series isn't supported yet (but your 4090 is)
2/ the server could be busy, so it may take a few attempts...
3/ there could be some kind of daily quota. For example, if you're submitting too many failed tasks. But since your last task was processed about a month ago, that doesn't seem to be the issue
4/ it could be some GPU driver restriction, but your second host is running the 610.x driver and is able to accept work, so that doesn't seem to be the issue either

Unfortunately, without access to the server logs, it's difficult to determine why you're getting "0 new tasks," so I can't offer any better advice. Since the last fix, I haven't had any issues receiving work.
