Thanks for the advice, I figured as much  Undecided

Also, thanks for the advice on the other miner, it works a lot better.  Grin

You should be able to get 4MH's out of the amd.  Try using Ufasoft's miner.

The 8500GT barely does CUDA.. may not even at all.

8500GT isn't listed but an 8600GT gets 5.5 Mhash/s

so sounds like it could be right.

I have a AMD 3.0Ghz Quad core processor, GeForce 8500GT, and 4 gigs of ddr2 RAM. I am using GUIMiner and deepbit as my pool. The max I am seeing is 2.2Mhash/s using my GeForce as the device.

This seems really low to me, even though it's an old card. Is this what I should expect? Any suggestions to increase this and get more bang out of what I have?

Thanks!

That's just about right for a CPU.  You can't mine on a GeForce 8500GT, I tried that one also.
