CPU device not available
#1
Hi folks,

For some reason, my hashcat can use only GPU, CPU seems to be "not available". Hashcat does not see it within the available devices.
Do you have any clue why? My CPU isn't old (i9-9900KF), and drivers should be up-to-date. I tried to explicitly enable it along with GPU using a parameter "-D 1,2"  and also with "-d 1,2" ) for benchmarks in any combination, but without success.


Code:

Thank you in advance for any advice!

you need to install the drivers as mentioned in https://hashcat.net/hashcat/

https://software.intel.com/en-us/article...pu-section
current win driver at time of this writing: http://registrationcenter-download.intel..._setup.msi

Thanks, I've downloaded it, installed, then I rebooted PC, and now I got only CPU listed, the GPU is missing ... not sure if it's funny or not Big Grin . Did I do anything wrong?  This situation is weird to me, perhaps maybe it got something to do with the windows registry or something like that....

Please install the nvidia driver directly from https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx

also see https://hashcat.net/faq/wrongdriver if installing the GPU driver doesn't work immediately

Perfect, this worked! After installation of latest GPU Drivers I can see now both devices (CPU & GPU) listed correctly :

Many many thanks for your time and help! Very appreciated! :-)
Have a good day!
