Windows 7 64-bit and 8500 GT error - "GPU is not CUDA capable"

Submitted by doharrow on Mon, 08/03/2009 - 13:02

Hi,
I'm running Windows 7 (Build 7100) with an NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT with the latest driver, version 8.15.11.9038
When I try to run badaboom it says "there is no GPU device that supports CUDA", despite using a CUDA compliant graphics card and driver.
I'd really like to switch to using Badaboom instead of MediaCoder, but can't at present - can anyone help?
Thanks!

I had same problem with windows 7 64-bit. I changed to windows 7 32bit and it worked. The only advantage of W7-64bit is if you have '64-bit' software and if you need more memory then the 32bit windows7 can use. Problems with so many software was the main reason to downgrade for me to 32bit.
