GPU crash on Mac Pro / GTX 580
Posted: Thu Apr 12, 2012 5:43 pm
I've recently upgraded my system, adding a new GTX 580 to it. I'm running Lion 10.7.3 on a 2x2,26GHz Quad core Xeon Mac Pro (8GB Ram).
I also have a Nvidia GT120 in the same machine, it was the original card, and I kept it to work with Davinci Resolve.
The driver is the latest I could find, which allows any GTX card to run on a mac, which wasn't possible until now. This NOT a hack.
See the driver here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/macosx-270 ... river.html
I've also updated the CUDA driver to 4.2.7.
The benchmark/optimize functions in NV report this error as soon as I choose a mode involving GPU (CPU+GPU or GPU Alone):
"GPU error at GeForce GTX 580 (0): Unknown error (999) in getDeviceMemory(.)"
I tried with only the GTX580 and also only with the GT120: same result.
