  • Quadro 4000 not seen by resolve

    Posted by Grant Keiner on February 23, 2012 at 4:27 am

    Hi I have a Quadro 4000 installed and am trying to run resolve lite

    It can’t seem to recognize the quadro and therefore will not run.

    I’ve searched the forum and can’t seem to get a good answer as to what the current driver versions etc are that I need.

    I’ve downgraded driers etc. to try and fit what I think are the recommended versions are for resolve.

    I am running a mac pro 5,1
    10.6.8
    2×2.66 6-core
    32gigs of RAM
    5770 in slot 1
    Quadro 4000 in slot 2
    CUDA version 4.0.50
    gfx driver 1.6.67.0 (256.02.25f01)

    Can anyone help?

    The latest drivers should be fine.

    Does the Quadro show up in the system profiler?

    Are your monitors plugged into the 5770?

    Did you plug in power to the Quadro?

    latest drivers did not work

    Quadro shows up in system profiler

    monitors are connected to 5770

    as for power. I am fairly certain it has power. the quadro works as a gfx card. how and what do I check for this?

    thanks for your help.

    drivers in the OS no good

    Nvidia has newer ones for 10.6.8 on their site

    also, you need CUDA drivers from them but they are separate things

    are you sure you have MAC version of 4000 ?

    also try to swap gpus in lanes.

    some machines need them to be swaped.

    Not sure it’s helpful but on the PC front the quadro 4000 is also not Seen.
    BM state driver 280.26 but this doesn’t support the 4000 card. And Nvidia confirm that.
    So currently no driver support.

    I had something similar where the card was installed and I thought I had installed all the drivers and I had the CUDA drivers in place but resolve would not see it. Came up in system info etc. I discovered on the installer disk there was another driver a “retail dmg” installer that I had missed. Now everything works.

    Also is the power cable in place to the motherboard

    Sorry if this is stating the obvious.

    The quick and easy way to tell a Mac Q4000 from a PC one is the number of ports. A Mac card has only 2 due to a limitation of Nvidia drivers. There is one DVI port and a single DisplayPort. The PC version has 3 ports from which you can still only output 2 separate images. The PC card has 1 @ DVI and 2 @ DisplayPort.

    RUn CUDA-Z to see if card is functioning in CUDA.
