2010 Mac-Pro with NVIDIA cards does not work with CUDA

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance

I got the brand new 12-core Mac Pro from Apple, and took out the ATI cards, and plugged in the 4800 FX For Mac from my 2009 Mac Pro. Everything seems to work fine OS/Graphics wise, except that CUDA doesn’t seem to work.

I’ve installed the latest 3.1 downloads - CUDA driver, CUDA 3.1 tookit and GPU Computing SDK 3.1.

I’ve switched my Mac to boot in 32-bit mode to avoid any 64-bit related issues.

This is the output from deviceQuery:

./deviceQuery Starting…

CUDA Device Query (Runtime API) version (CUDART static linking)

cudaGetDeviceCount FAILED CUDA Driver and Runtime version may be mismatched.

FAILED

Press to Quit…

The only differences compared to the my 2009 Mac Pro (which works fine 3.1 CUDA), is that the CUDA panel in System Preferences shows a 256.00 NVIDIA driver vs a 195 NVIDIA driver in the 2009 Mac Pro. (See attachment)

Any suggestions?

If I compile the OpenCL version of deviceQuery, that seems to run just fine.

Hmm, mine shows a different one. Than again, I don’t have a Quadro. However, I installed and run in 64 bit mode just fine (producing 32 bit executables by default).
Try to remove the driver and install it again in 64 bit mode?

Are you 2010 Mac Pro - the Westmere processors? 12 core or 8?

Which GPU do you have?

Was the OpenCL and CUDA deviceQuery both for the same hardware configuration? Are there any install logs to look at?

I’m looking into running CUDA on a GTX 480 with a 2010 12-core Mac Pro. I’d love to hear if you work out this issue.

Could you tell me hwo to boot up MacBook with 32bit operationg mode?

As I know pressing 6 and 4 keys at booting time will allow mac to boot with 64 bit.

Is this right?

Thanks.
