It is possible that the NVIDIA driver version 525.125.06-2 is not compatible with CUDA/Hashcat. You can try downgrading the driver to version 525.125.06 to see if that resolves the issue.
To downgrade the NVIDIA driver in The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali), follow these steps:
Open a terminal window.
Remove the current NVIDIA driver and related packages:
sudo apt remove nvidia-dkms nvidia-utils libnvidia-common
Download the NVIDIA driver version 525.125.06 from the NVIDIA website.
Install the NVIDIA driver:
sudo dpkg -i <nvidia-driver-package.run>
Reboot your system.
Once you have downgraded the NVIDIA driver, you can check to see if CUDA/Hashcat is working by running the following command:
nvidia-smi
If the output of the command shows your CUDA devices, then CUDA/Hashcat should be working.
If you are still having problems with CUDA/Hashcat, you can try the following:
Make sure that you have the latest version of CUDA installed.
