I have an NVIDIA GeForce GT 240M graphic card and it didn't get any working unit for the GPU. I have tried Einstein@home and it gives GPU working unit so I guess the settings are fine.

Here is my log:

Your GPU has a hardware compute capability 1.2, which would have been fine a few years ago but is too old for GPU-Grid now. Even support for compute capability 1.3 will be deprecated in the foreseeable future.
