GP100 - Cuda 9.2 drivers installer Failed

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Setup and Installation

Hi,

I am trying to install Cuda 9.2 compatible drivers for a Quadro GP100 on Windows 7 but the installer fails with the error: “NVIDIA Installer failed” and no more information.
I tried with the toolkit installer (https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Windows&target_arch=x86_64&target_version=7&target_type=exelocal), I tried with the drivers standalone installer (https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/134627/en-us) checking the “perform clean installation”, I tried this solution https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1033111/cuda-setup-and-installation/cuda-9-1-cannot-install-due-to-failed-visual-studio-integration/post/5259359/#5259359, I tried and retried install/deinstall many times, … and I am still getting this “NVIDIA Installer failed” message …

I tried to get some log but running

setup.exe -log "C:\path\that\exists" -loglevel:6

from the extract folder does not even launch the installer.

The Cuda 9.2 toolkit installer works fine and install the drivers on other Windows 7 desktops with K20c or GTX Titan Black GPUs.
Installation of Cuda 9.1 drivers works fine. So, is there a problem with the combo GP100 - w7 - Cuda 9.2 ?

My config:

  • Windows 7 Entreprise SP1 - 64bit
  • Quadro GP100
  • Cuda 9.2

Thanks for your help,
Guillaume A.

Can you share snapshots with us? You can send pictures to CUDAIssues@nvidia.com for file exchange.
By the way, could you try delete C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\Installer2 and then try to install once again and see if it is still an open issue for you?

Hello Fancy, thanks for your answer.
I am sorry but I already solved the problem: I reinstalled Windows! :)
