Call your hardware vendor for support
***The system has halted***

why do people insist on calling the graphics card a GPU? that would be like calling the motherboard a processor.

I think it's fair to call the graphics card the GPU in the F@H section since really that's what's being used really to fold. However, that being said I think you've still got a valid argument. :)
