Hello, I'm french and i just begin in mining

I try to mine ZCASH with old Nvidia GPU (9600GT). But, when i run the miner, it closes instantly. I can read before close, "Error: Cuda driver version is insufficient for cuda runtime version" ... I don't understand

I have install CUDA 9.1 and 341.92 driver

Maybe I should have install CUDA 6.5 ??

Can you help me please Huh

(Sorry for my bad english  Grin )

Each nVidia GPU has it's own architecture : it is it's compute number.
For example, GTX 1070 is a 6.0 or 6.2 compute architecture.
Each Cuda version is compatible with only a range of compute.
Then, you have tu use the Cuda version who has the same compute compatibility of your GPU.

You will find all the compute compatibilities GPU/Cuda in the nVidia Cuda website.

Great, thanks !! I try a CUDA version who has the same compute compatibility with my GPU
