added second GPU .. it keeps erroring out...

It seems that a lot of GPU problems revolve around specific versions of drivers. Though NVidia has their own support structure, you can often learn from information reported by others who fold.

added second GPU .. it keeps erroring out...

Post by scm2000 »

I have been running fine with one GPU in my system (Geforce GTX 1050 ti)
I just added a Geforce GTX 1070..

I have downloaded and installed the latest NVIDIA driver for both of them.

I did a fresh install of FAH... both gpu's are configured with default GPU slots.

The first GPU (the 1070) is running fine on it's first job.
the second GPU (the 1050).. keeps downloading a job.. starting, then getting the same error:
FS02:0x22:ERROR:exception: Illegal value for DeviceIndex: 1
and it dumps the job...

Any ideas?

Re: added second GPU .. it keeps erroring out...

Post by scm2000 »

I have additional information... If I look in the task manager.. it is actually the second gpu, the 1050 that is running the job that FAH thinks is running on the 1070.
So it looks like some confusion due to the default setup of the slots...

So do I need to adjust the cuda and opencl slot indexes?
The setup says you may need to do that with a mix of GPU types.
But what goes where?

I would suggest that you set both GPU slots to finish. Once all the WUs are finished and uploaded, uninstall the client selecting the option to delete the data. Reboot your system and then install the latest version which is 7.6.9 and see what happens :)

did that version just come out? I set the first gpu up with a fresh FAH Monday this last week... I see now there is a new version

Is it using CUDA?
You usually don't need to install an additional driver. 1 driver should recognize all compatible GPUs.

yes it's just the one driver but I had to install it on the new card.. it didn't go automatically when I plugged it in an booted it up.
