  • GTX 470 still broken with 10.7.4 and Resolve 8.2.1b3

    Posted by Chad Terpstra on June 13, 2012 at 12:37 am

    I updated my system to 10.7.4 and it has broken my GTX 470’s CUDA performance. I’ve read other people are successful in updating Resolve to 8.2.1 beta 3 but this has not helped for me. I’ve also updated my CUDA drivers to 4.2.7. I have a Decklink card as well and I tried updating its driver to 9.5.2. Nothing seems to make any difference.

    What should my driver settings be and/or how can I get back on the road with Resolve asap?

    You should consider reverting to 10.7.3

    Sometimes when you update your system, the kext files that you might have changed/removed get replaced. Check if that is the case.

    Thanks,

    I forgot about those kext files. What should they be and where are they? Alternatively, how do you revert back to 10.7.3?

    Fifth message in the thread appears to be what you need.

    Chad, Did you reinstall the NVidia drivers? The ones for 10.7.3 were broken and a new driver was put out to fix.

    You need to make sure you install these driver:

    Good luck.

    That did it Dwaine. Thanks! You forget all those steps that got these cards working in the first place. Gotta write this down somewhere.
