most people say you do not have installed your drivers correctly / some leftovers from old drivers. i had the same error till i updated gpu bios to bios from different brand. if you do it, do at your own risk Smile otherwise you can disable the checks with --gpu-watchdog 0

update gpu bios
or
disable gpu watchdog 0 (I don’t know how to do it)

I dont want to damage my cards. coz im not expert on it

"--gpu-watchdog 0" is the flag to disable the watchdog.
Just add it to the command line and the error should be gone.

I would highly advise not using --gpu-watchdog 0 unless you plan on watching the temps the entire run.
