Hashcat not using GPU?
#1
Bug 
I am using a Windows 10 computer with an NVidia graphics card. 

I notice when I run my hashcat.exe and go to the task manager, the GPU is at 0% for the hashcat.exe in the task manager.

When I run "./hashcat.exe -I", I get:

Code:

Based on the information above, I would want to run -D 2 since the type is GPU. The command I use to run it all is
Code:
./hashcat.exe -D 2 -m 2500 -w 3 -a wpa.hccapx worklist.txt ?d?d?d

And once it runs, I get:


Code:
* Device #3: Unstable OpenCL driver detected!

This OpenCL driver may fail kernel compilation or produce false negatives.
You can use --force to override, but do not report related errors.

Driver temperature threshold met on GPU #1. Expect reduced performance.


In the above code, the key part I'm curious about is why device 2 is being skipping and running device 1 when I specified -D 2?

I am new to hashcat so it all is a bit unfamiliar right now but I do appreciate any support anyone can give. Thank you for your time and reading my post.
