it has not been tested with CUDA 4.0 and since a lot of things
changed in the way how the GPU's features are accessed,
it is likely to not work. as of recent, nvidia seems to have made
it a policy to make it harder to use consumer grade hardware
for GPU computing by dropping access to helpful features that
used to be (semi-)supported.
