I was surprised to see that:

1. MSI Afterburner and GPU-Z reports 0% use of the GPU (GTX550 Ti), while
2. Speedfan reports a high temperature which is indicative of GPU utilization.

My question is: How do I make use of the GPU, because I see the following in my output file



       Loaded CUDA/Firefly interface version 0x00010004

Dev #    Name          DP capable  Async  Timeout  Emulated  Useable
 0   GeForce GTX 550       Yes      Yes       No       No      Yes



And my input file looks like this (gathered from the output file):

Please help me Firefly community. I am an undergraduate student and still have lots to learn on Gamess.
