Hi all,

Using windows 7 and have made tensorflow work in the cpu version. But keep getting this error in the gpu version.

Installed it using pip install tensorflow-gpu. Have cuda 8.0 and cudnn 5.1. Have the dll file and cudnn files copied over. GPU model is K610M.

Thanks in advance for the assistance.

Hi @quatre008,
As the stack overflow link suggests, have you tried to invoke tensorflow by staying out of the source code directory?

Hi @quatre008, sorry you're facing issues, could you please check if your CUDA and cuDNN DLLs are properly set on your %PATH%?

Hi,

@karandesai-96 I tried many different directories and still the same. Tensorflow worked but not tensorflow gpu.

@Carmezim How do I know if it is properly set? I only found the following:
PATH: C:\Users\KiraYamato\Anaconda3;C:\Users\KiraYamato\Anaconda3\Scripts;C:\Users\KiraYamato\Anaconda3\Library\bin
CUDA_PATH : C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v8.0
CUDA_PATH_V8_0: C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v8.0

@quatre008 what happens sometimes is that cuDNN DLLs are installed in a different directory of CUDA so you need to add it also. Make sure you installed cuDNN correctly and if its DLLs are not in those directories already in your %PATH% you need to add them.

@Carmezim I have copied the files into the same CUDA directory as mentioned. So I am guessing it should be working fine. I have re-downloaded and overwritten to make sure this was the case too.

@quatre008 If you went over CUDA and cuDNN installation again and made sure you have everything properly set, completely uninstall TensorFlow and install it (only GPU) again. If the problem persists then it's not CUDA/cuDNN related.

Ok I finally managed to resolve the issue.

2 issues at work here. One being my Visual Studio was not installed properly, and the second one (outside of this topic but still interesting) is that my laptop has dual graphics boot-up.

So for the first issue, I managed to resolve it by deleting most folders and restarting the installation, starting from visual studio (the free version of community VS2017 did not work previously).

Then as for the second issue, I only need to remove intel graphics from the bootup menu and solely use the K610M that I am having and everything is fine now, except for a list of warning messages that seems to be common in most cases.

Thanks for the help again. Much appreciated.

Hi, I am having this issue on Linux. I am trying to install tensorflow with pypy.
My ./configure has everything default except the python interpreter /usr/local/bin/pypy.
