GPU error
-
Hey everyone,
Im trying to get marlin to run on one of my machines. Its SLI with 2 NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GSO 512's, Win 10 64x
When I run the .bat file i keep getting the same error of...
"Error: cuModuleLoadData: no kernel image is available for execution on this device"
The terminal window will flash up then close itself almost immediately.
Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong. I've made sure the device drivers are up to date.
Thanks for any helps guys.

@joe.g1900 I don't think that 9600 is powerful enough to mine. I could be wrong. Also SLI doesn't do anything for mining. Try CCminer and see if it will mine.

Marlin has run on a 9500 GT before. So we are good with these cards.
You will need to lower your intensity, the cards don't have much memory.
Try running "marlin.exe -d 0,1,2,3 --benchmark" and post your results.
Edit: Also disable SLI.

Thanks for the help so far.
I ran the benchmark and got the same results.
I have also disabled the SLI and reduced the intensity to 10 to see if it would work but no joy.
I disabled each of the cards in the device manager individually to see if there was an error on one of the cards that might stop the other working but that didn't help either.

Could you run -d 2 --benchmark?
I need to see if it it will work with openCL.

I get the following result.

Alright, You'll need to mine on your cards using opencl. Not a big deal.
Use -d 2,3 and you'll be good to go!
"marlin -d 2,3 -H eu.siamining.com:3333 -u youraddress.worker -I 22.
You can keep raising the intensity as needed. You can also edit the bat directly to add the "-d 2,3" in the command.

Absolutely fantastic! Thanks a lot for the help. Out of interest what was/is the issue?
I will be away with work for a little while so the idea is to set a few oldish machines running and remote in as and when.
Thanks again for the help.

Without looking into it too deeply, I just didn't test marlin against against such an old version of cuda.
OpenCL works though, and provides a comparable hashing speed.
