Compiling on Windows 7 X64 / V-Express C++ 2010

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance

Hello,

I have Windows 7, X64, Cuda Toolkit 4, Cuda SDK 4, Visual C++ Express 2010, unfortunately it became impossible to compile. As if I open a “Release*.sln” file, for instance “asyncAPI_vs2010.sln”, I get errors like these:

[b]C:\Documents and Settings\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.0\CUDALibraries\src\asyncAPI\asyncAPI_vs2010.vcxproj : error : Project “C:\Documents and Settings\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.0\CUDALibraries\src\asyncAPI\asyncAPI_vs2010.vcxproj” could not be found.

C:\Documents and Settings\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.0\CUDALibraries\common\cutil_vs2010.vcxproj : error : Project “C:\Documents and Settings\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.0\CUDALibraries\common\cutil_vs2010.vcxproj” could not be found.[/b]

Strangely “asyncAPI_vs2010.vcxproj” and “cutil_vs2010.vcxproj” are existing(In the indicated paths).

I read that there are problems with X64 and Cuda Toolkit/SDK 4. I didn’t have those problems with Visual C++ 2008, 32(Another Computer).

What could be the solution?

I used "C:\Documents and Settings\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.0\CUDALibraries\src" this path instead of the default path, as somebody recommended it. But it actually doesn’t matter.

The problem was, that I had installed the SDK or the Toolkit “for a single user”.
