I had newer or equivalent versions of these at the time of installation, so I did not include them in the installation. I felt that I should include this information just in case it does actually matter and help someone.

I had a problem installing CUDA 11 with similar symptoms. (Also, nvidia-smi showed Cuda v10, and deviceQuery failed.) I needed to update Windows 10, update VisualStudio to 2019 then repeatedly uninstall all Nvidia programs. An older DLL NVCUDA64.dll (from an earlier CUDA v10 install) was particularly stubborn, but finally was able to remove it, reboot, then installing CUDA v11 worked ok.
When I tried to install CUDA toolkit version 11.8 (cuda_11.8.0_522.06_windows), it always failed at the Nsight Visual Studio Edition part. I tried to install NVIDIA_Nsight_Visual_Studio_Edition_Win64_2022.3.0.22269_31854358 separately but it always ended prematurely: NVIDIA Nsight Visual Studio Edition 2022.3.0.22269 Setup Wizard ended prematurely.
I have the same issue here.
At first, the CUDA installer asked me to install Visual Studio, then I installed VSCode and Visual Studio Community, but the CUDA installer finally failed to install Nsight Compute.
So, I continued to install the standalone version of Nsight Compute and rebooted my computer, but the CUDA installer showed it failed to install Nsight Compute again, which made no sense because I had installed that application already.
The NVIDIA graphics driver on this PC is several versions out of date, so I went to upgrade it due to an unrelated issue. I went to the NVIDIA website, downloaded the 64-bit Windows 10 driver for the GT 720 GPU. I ran the installation as you normally would only to be met with the error "NVIDIA Installer Failed", and it told me the "Graphics Driver" failed to install.
This is the first thing I tried, I restarted the computer, waited a while, and then I ran the NVIDIA driver installer, I selected "Custom Install", and then I ticked the "Clean Install" checkbox. This failed in the same way as before. Note, I also tried "Run[ning the updater] As Administrator".
I opened Windows Update to check for updates, since this can often fix failed driver installs. It said there was a NVIDIA driver update available, so began the update process. This failed with the error "0x80070003". I tried again, it failed again.
From device manager, I right clicked on the GPU, and clicked "Update Driver Software", I opted to browse for driver files, with "Check subfolders" checked, and navigated to C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\368.39\ and clicked "OK". This failed with "Code 28".
Once the installation is finished, run prime-select query to check which graphic card is being used by your device.
If you want to change the graphic card used by your PC, run : sudo prime-select ; choose between Nvidia and Intel graphic cards.
After that, restart your PC to apply changes
and does `modprobe -l grep nvidia` show that the module is in fact loaded? if it's not then load it, that may fix your problem. then the new problem is, why is it not autoloaded at boot like it should be.
do pacman -Syyu and if no kernel package comes then reinstall it. pacman -S kernel26
see if downloading kernel26-2.6.28.7-1. after that install nvidia package. if not take a look in /etc/pacman.conf and see if you have on ignorepkg something
I do have secure boot enabled and have had with the nvidia drivers for quite some time so the key is properly loaded into bios and should have been included in the modules when they were built and installed.
I then removed the kmod-nvidia package with dnf remove kmod-nvidia-$(uname -r) followed by rebuilding the modules and reinstalling with akmods --force Once completed I rebooted and this time the modules loaded properly.
My conclusion is that even though the system upgrade did build and install the kmod-nvidia package, it failed with corrupted modules that would not load or it failed to properly sign the modules so secure boot prevented loading the nvidia drivers.
I have a fresh install of 39 beta on a testing partition. Secure boot is off. X11 session. When the beta first came out, the newest Nvidia driver loaded fine, but at some point after an update (not sure if it was a ststem or Nvidia update), the drivers failed to load with the error message you mentioned. Downgrading to Nvidia 470 worked,
Unless you are using a gpu that was no longer supported when nvidia upgraded the drivers to the 495 (and newer) versions it seems strange that you should have needed to downgrade to the nvidia 470 driver.
True mostly.
However, if the user has the nvidia 470xx drivers installed it will not pull the updates to the nvidia drivers since the 470xx driver package is designed to not upgrade to the latest (currently 535).
What broke and forced this manual rebuild.
What nvidia packages are installed? Please post the output of dnf list installed \*nvidia\* from one and we can focus on fixing that one, then the others may need similar repairs.
Note that it seems mandatory when updating kernel and/or nvidia drivers that the user wait at least 3 to 5 minutes after the upgrade or install completes before performing a reboot. Without the delay the new driver modules may not be properly built and installed
In order to fix ABI incompatibility with MLNX_OFED modules, the modules should be recompiled against the new kernel, using the mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh script, available in MLNX_OFED installation image.
There are two ways to recompile the MLNX_OFED modules:
Local recompilation and installation on one server.
Run the mlnxofedinstall command to recompile the kernel modules and reinstall the whole MLNX_OFED on the server. Mount MLNX_OFED ISO image or extract the TGZ file:
- The command above will rebuild only the kernel RPMs (using mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh), and will save the resulting MLNX_OFED package under /tmp and start installing it automatically. This package can be used for installation on other servers using regular mlnxofedinstall command or yum.
I have the exact same problem. The GPU worked fine a few days ago. I started the instance again today and `nvidia-smi` displays that same error. It's like the driver disappeared. Did you have any luck figuring out what happened?
I got it to work by using the kernel parameter nvidia.NVreg_OpenRmEnableUnsupportedGpus=1.
Source: (K)Ubuntu 22.10 not booting (kernel OOPS) for driver >450 with eGPU - #3 by generix - Linux - NVIDIA Developer Forums
I have been using nvidia drivers successfully with the standard rhel package. Today, when I upgraded the kernel due to system update, the nvidia modules would not build at boot and I had to go back to the old kernel.
Anyway, it installed fine and when I use the oldest driver (v470.129.06) it seems to work. When I update the driver (and reboot) to any newer driver I get the error:
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
Thanks for the information.
Based on the codes, it looks like 384.81 is still installed (at least nvidia-settings) and still contains config files. I would recommend to purge all drivers, and reinstall the latest (or desired) one.
There are always problems of NVIDIA installer failed when we install NVIDIA graphics driver on Windows 10, such as "The Standard NVIDIA Graphics Driver Is Not Compatible with This Version of Windows".
Recently, we find that it's easier to encounter NVIDIA installer failed problem on Windows Version 1507 (RTM) (OS build 10240). Users even fail to install Nvidia graphics drivers using the original installer package from Nvidia official site. Therefore, Driver Booster users may meet this problem as well when updating Nvidia graphics drivers. We still find that NVIDIA installer failed problem occurs on Windows Version 1803 (OS build 17134) and above.
Many factors can cause NVIDIA installer failed problem, while system incompatibility is one most important factor. Other main factors include: 1. the system is running a program related to Nvidia installer in the background; 2. Windows Update is working; 3. Incompatibility among different driver types.
Please check if there is any antivirus program installed on the system after Windows Update is completed. Antivirus programs can influence the installation of graphics drivers. So you should close antivirus programs before starting to fix Nvidia installer failed.
The installer failed problem occurs on Windows Version 1803 (OS build 17134) and above mainly because of the incompatibility between NVIDIA Standard driver and DCH driver. To learn more about FAQs of NVIDIA Standard and DCH driver, you can go to NVIDIA official site: _id/4777
It should enumerate all the GPUs. If it failed, your driver or therequired xorg is not installed properly. Do NOT installvulkan-utils or other MESA tools to fix your driver, as theymight install old incompatible validation layers.
This means that RTX renderer has failed and the reason of the failure will be printed in the full .log file as errors, such as an unsupported driver, hardware or etc. The log file is typically located at /home/USERNAME/**/logs/**/*.log
I am trying to install Tensorflow using WSL2 on windows as outlined on the TF website
Install TensorFlow with pip. I get to the point where I am getting confirmation the GPU is registering but I am getting quite a bit of feedback and when I try to train a simple CNN it errors out. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall things using instructions nvidia but still no success. When I try to use other methods to install it doe not recognize the gpu. The first things it spits out is
