CUDA doesn't work

Specific Domains GPU
1

Hi there. I want to train the data through GPU. CUDA.jl ist installed, but when I check the Cuda function like has_cuda(), it returns false.
I have done these following things:

  • all the drivers and programms updated (CUDA, Julia, …)
  • re-install driver for graphic card (Nvidia)
    I installed Win 11 on my computer. Graphic card: NVIDIA Geforce 1650 Ti
    If other test are necessary to find out what is the underlying problem, please let me know.

If you start Julia with the JULIA_DEBUG environment variable set to CUDA, has_cuda will show some debug messages indicating where it looked and what it did or did not find.

Hello maleadt,

This is the output of has_cuda() and using CUDA again with JULIA_DEBUG environment …
