Apparently my AMD 5750 GPU requires OpenCL 2.0 but the link below produces a very helpful "file not found" :(
Any ideas where I might find said file from?
I tried AMD-APP-SDKInstaller-v3.0.130.135-GA-windows-Wx64 which worked fine for my 7790 rig, but not for this older card.

I have tried for some time to get this turd running properly, any assistance would be appreciated.

Apparently my AMD 5750 GPU requires OpenCL 2.0

No, your GPU is OpenCL 1.2 compliant.

It can use drivers for OpenCL 2.0, but will only do at maximum OpenCL 1.2 calculations. It won't understand the instructions of later OpenCL versions.

What's wrong with the AMD 15.7.1 legacy driver? That is the maximum driver you can use to get OpenCL, any driver above that is only for Graphics Card Next (GCN) type GPUs, meaning the AMD HD7700 and above.

Your AMD HD7790 is the only HD7000 series GPU that is OpenCL compliant, all others are OpenCL 1.2
OpenCL compliancy can only be upgraded through hardware, not through drivers. Compare it to DirectX, which can also only upgrade through hardware, not by installing a newer DirectX on your OS (or in this case, when you're getting Windows 10 with DX12, all your GPUs still run only DX11).

Jord, thanks for your assistance. All working now thanks to you and the tip re OpenCL - I have been toying with a 4350, 6450, 2 x 5750s, and 2 x 7790s. I am a little over it right now, but the 7790s, the 6450, and one of the 5750s are running great now. I had better lock down the drivers too before windows 7 stuffs it up.

Thanks again.

Mark

Actually, I lie!
It WAS working ok, but I have received 4 consecutive computation errors from Einstien, and now the GPU is not doing anything, nor is it listed :)

These usually happen when you have an overzealous anti virus or other anti-malware program actively scanning the BOINC data directory and its sub-directories and it's seeing the calculations as something suspicious, so blocking them.

Set the BOINC data directory and all files and sub-directories within in the exceptions in your anti-virus/anti-malware program.

'Output file absent' more commonly means the application has crashed without producing any output, not that anything has deleted it.

The 'file not found' in the thread title refers to the AMD support page on the web - I get the same here.
