Recently bought a replacement Mac early 2009 after my existing one died. The replacement has two Nvidia GT120 cards in it. Cuda drivers GPU Driver Version: 310.90.10.05b54 (trying to unistall these drivers because it says it doesn't support the card). Side note: If someone knows how to unistall the drivers your help will be appreciated

I installed Resolve 15 Beta 4, everything was running fine then I decided to try the metal setting with auto (I have two GT120 in the system). I restarted the system and now Resolve boots-up with start screen then crashes. So I uninstalled and re-installed 5 times. nothing changed.

Downloaded beta version 3. Same issue. So then I figured it was something with the beta, so I downloaded ver Resolve 14 and it to crashes on start-up.

Can anyone tell me what is happening and how I can fix it?

Thank you in advance,
Robert

Those GPUs are really outdated, you need something better. Even if you may be able to start when set to OpenCL, it will be no joy working with it.

Thank you for the feedback, my card just died, so it is a temp solution.
