CUDA 5.5 VC++ redistributables installation error

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Setup and Installation
1

I’m using Windows 8 and I have Visual Studio Professional 2012. I downloaded CUDA 5.5 from NVIDIA and when I tried to install it I get a message “Installtion could not complete” and the reason is because of VC++ redist contained in CUDA 5.5 installation package. So I installed all the packages seperatly. (i.e) NVIDIA graphics driver, NVIDIA NSIGHT for Visual Studio 2012 and I also have CUDA toolkit and CUDA Documentation. But the problem is I could not get CUDA 5.5 Samples as istallation fails before installing the samples.

If anyone knew how could I fix the installation error please reply. I also tried installion by removing all the VC++ redist but still no use. Now I have the latest VC++ redist.

Do anyone know what is the VC++ redist come with CUDA 5.5 package for 64bit ?
Please let me know

Hi darshan16,
Could you please attach installation logs from a clean installation:

  1. Extract the installer with any LZMA-capable extraction utility (such as 7z)
  2. Within a cmd window, run setup.exe like so:
    setup.exe -log:“C:\path\that\exists” -loglevel:6
  3. Attach the .log files that are created at “C:\path\that\exists”

Thanks!

Here are the logs - I’ve been trying for days to get CUDA 6.0 to install. Have already unistalled VS2010 and tried, but keep getting these errors

I’m having the same problem using Windows 8.1 on an HP Envy TouchSmart with a 740GTX. I’m trying to install the 6.0 toolkit, & getting the failure on VC++ Redistribs. I followed the procedure above to get a log, & have them to post, though I hesitate to post them here. Any advice on this front?

Same issue with toolkit 6.5 and windows 8.1 x64

Same issue, toolkit 6.5 windows 8.1 x64

obs.: first tried installing in my windows user folder - my name is accentuated.
Doesn’t work. Not the first time it fails (last year, another machine, same story).

Now a second try, using another admin account: partial installation (integrated with VS, but failed VC++ Redistributables, Samples…).
