Hello.

I have two systems, both run Asteroids@Home, one of them specifically states to not use nVidia GPU, as this is my main machine and I like not having a lagging machine, I have a Core i5 dedicated to just science stuff.
Anywho, I've just got an update, and it contained around 45 GPU tasks for my main PC, had to abort them all. Any idea why this happened?

And you already have the "Use NVIDIA GPU " box unchecked, right?
I would detach and re-attach to the project.
