hashcat Forum

hi, i am new at this.
i run windows 7 and have a nvidia 8600gt video card
updated with the latest drivers

oclhashcat is not working, i think i need cudahashcat?
Is that the solution for my problem?
where can i download cudehashcat?

thanks

Hi,

When you download the oclHashcat archive (1.01), there are several Windows executables in it:
cudaHashcat32.exe
cudaHashcat64.exe
oclHashcat32.exe
oclHashcat64.exe

Just run the correct cudaHashcat to get it work.

EDIT: I think you are in the wrong forum, maybe you should have posted this thread in oclHashcat forum https://hashcat.net/forum/forum-38.html

now i got this error


i tried everything ,but can't figure it out

Moved to oclHashcat forum...

For any doubts about how to select the right -m (--hash-type) values and / or how the hash (+ salt) should look like, pls consider reading this wiki page:

thanks for the info, everything works fine now.
i have an other question,
is it a waste of time, to try to bruteforce a md5 hash?

Depends on speed, and the complexity of the password. If you extracted from a database i suggest you go onto the website and try to register an account somewhere and see the password rules attached to the registration, this will give you an idea.

thanks, pretty smart idea
