-cd 0 returning Only CUDA devices with SM 5.0 on a GTX 1060 with windows build 0.5c #370

Open TrentonOl opened 6 years ago

I have downloaded the latest nheqminer 0.5c and it works fine with my CPU, but I have a NVidia GTX 1060 that I want to mine ZEC with, but I cant get beyond the error "Only CUDA devices with SM 5.0 and higher are supported"

The last time I checked, GTX 1060 cards have SM 5.0. Do I need a specific driver or is there something else wrong?

I did find something about Compute version and modifying one of the dll's, but I am not a programmer and would not know where to start. Does anyone know what to do? Could a new ZIP be created with the necessary modifications?

Thanks for any help.

Quick follow up. I'm not sure its a true 1060 3GB. I have looked at the specs in the NVidia drivers and it only shows 192 CUDA cores despite recognizing as a GTX 1060. I did buy it cheap from Hong Kong. I am using the latest drivers from NVidia's website. I have been able to get EWBF miner to run, but only get about 18 sec/s using the solver 3, this is the best of all 4 solvers.
