Ok, So i'm trying the test the demo version on a visa workstation at the studio where i work....
i've got it installed dispite windows insisting i'm not admin, but now when i try to start octane, i'm being told no CUDA capable device is found...
i've got a nvidia quadro fx 1800 on the machine which unless i'm mistaken is CUDA card.
does anyone know what the issue is here? is there some setting somewhere where i have to enable CUDA from?

sorry guys. tech imbecile :D

This is only a guess, but the first thing I'd check would be drivers. Meaning: make sure the drivers for your video card are current.
