Fun with Cuda

[moocow1452]

Using an Alienware m11x (OG, GT335m), and it seems that Open CL is not working despite a clean driver install from NVidia, downloading the Cuda kit, and then reverting to Dell's official switchable driver. It's also messing with Folding@Home, so I'm pretty sure it's not any specific miner. Help?

About all I know is that if I try and run a cmd prompt miner, I get something along the lines of "2012-03-12 15:21:51 Error: Error getting OpenCL platforms" except the date is then it happened, obviously.   Using the Windows 8 Preview with the IE and Chrome, haven't installed Firefox. Would that have anything to do with it if WebCL isn't availible, or different ponies?

Should I try a live disk and see if that changes anything if I open up restricted drivers and let er rip?

Good news, a two year old beta driver actually got it to respond to CUDA commands. Now the fun part.

[Schleicher]

Did you try this one?
http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook-win7-winvista-64bit-295.73-whql-driver.html
You don't need to install the CUDA Toolkit.

[moocow1452]

Yeah, but it seems that the newest drivers made it lose support, ironically. I'll try doing a patch install, see if that does anything.

EDIT: Nope, lost Cuda and OpenCL support, but Open GL is 3.3, probably not worth it at this point.

[Schleicher]

You are using Win 8, right?
Looks like CUDA/OpenCL is not supported yet:

[moocow1452]

Go figure... Thanks guys.

EDIT: And now there is CUDA driver for Windows 8, same day.
