If its been a while since you've run Colatz on your Windoz GPU... you will need to revisit your "Collatz Conjecture preferences" page and check the Collatz Sieve: yes.
Then make sure you have installed an updated C++ library. (Visual Studio 2012 C++ runtime)
Get it Here
After installing, close boinc and reboot windoz.

You may want to fiddle with the gpu.config file (mine is: collatz_sieve_1.21_windows_x86_64__opencl_amd_gpu.config) in the C:\ProgramData\BOINC\projects\boinc.thesonntags.com_collatz Directory.

If you are getting a really big video lag, then you need to modify the .config files. See the discussion on the Collatz message boards. #ni-1

***********************************************
for that computer Blurf must check :

Use CPU = no
Use ATI GPU = no
Use NVIDIA GPU = yes
Use Intel GPU = no
Run test applications? = no

Run only the selected applications
Micro Collatz Conjecture: no
Collatz Sieve: yes

Run only the selected plan classes
OpenCL for nVidia GPUs (opencl_nvidia_gpu) = yes

ALSO MUST HAVE C++ installed.

Edit: Embarassed

also must have BOINC 7.0.28 or later for OpenCL GPU tasks on AMD, nVidia, or Intel GPUs
