This error occurs when the CUDA runtime version installed on the system requires a newer version of the CUDA driver. To resolve this issue, you have a few options:
-
Update the CUDA driver: Visit the NVIDIA website and download the latest CUDA driver that is compatible with your CUDA runtime version. Run the installer and follow the instructions to update the driver.
-
Downgrade the CUDA runtime version: If updating the driver is not possible, you can try downgrading your CUDA runtime version to match the currently installed CUDA driver. Uninstall the existing CUDA runtime, download the desired version from the NVIDIA website, and install it.
-
Check system requirements: Ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for the CUDA runtime and driver versions you intend to use. Refer to the documentation or release notes to verify compatibility.
-
Use CPU or a different GPU: If you do not have the option to update or downgrade the CUDA driver, you can run your code on a CPU or a different GPU that is compatible with your CUDA runtime version.
Remember to restart your system after updating or installing the CUDA driver to ensure the changes take effect.
