DaVinci not recognising Nvidia Quadro 4000

Posted by Sebastian Cepeda on January 26, 2011 at 12:45 pm

Hi People,

I just received my DaVinci system and everything is already installed. under system preferences I can see the nvidia Cuda and it even says “Latest available CUDA Driver installed”
but when i go back to DaVinci Resolve and start it a message appears right away:
“WARNING: No CUDA Acceleration Hardware Detected!
Please quit Resolve and instal a CUDA accelerated GPU card or update your CUDA software driver to the latest version before continuing to use Resolve. …” When i than press ok following message appears:

“Chassis 1: GPU Config Error (Total GPUs found = 0)”

I have DaVinci version 7.1
NVIDIA CUDA Version: 3.2.17
OSX: 10.6.6 2 x 2.93GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon with 12GB Ram (maybe that info helps too)
ATI Radeon HD 5770

I do see both cards under Graphics/Displays but the Quadro doesnt work with resolve for some reason.

Can please someone help me,have been waiting for my system for more than 3 weeks to come and when finally arrived resolve isnt working… 🙁

thanks for any help.
cheers

i had to switch my 4000 and 120 to get it work.

4000 is on slot 1 and 120 in slot 2.

i wonder if the cuda update is public ?

Hi, this is the link they send me for updating the CUDA:

https://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro-macosx-256.01.00f03-driver.html

I hope it helps you too…

Just updated to Mac OS 10.6.8 Had the same issue as above but I installed from the link that was posted above and still couldn’t get results so I called black magic. Didn’t even have to explain the situation.

So to fix it you head over to Nvidia’s website and download the new driver for Quadro 4000 for mac 256.02.25

https://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro-macosx-256.02.25f01-driver.html

then you need to download from a link down on the left that says “nvidia driver for mac”

This one.
https://www.nvidia.com/object/macosx-cuda-3.2.17-driver.html

He said you first install 3.2.17 which doesn’t require a restart and then 256.02.25 which may or may not. Then you should be good!
