Unsupported GPU Processing Mode error in Resolve 17

PostMon Apr 05, 2021 9:01 am

Here is my .nfo file
mediafire.com/file/o4k0miby2ihpham/laptop.nfo/file

Here are the logs for Resolve
mediafire.com/file/a2hvo7qvlwwgb76/DaVinci-Resolve-logs-_135916.zip/file

It seems that there are no GPU's in the drop down box
I have updated my AMD Drivers but the error is still there
It would be really helpful if you could help me fix this damned error

Try turning off the tick next to GPU Selection and manually selecting the AMD GPU.
Here's mine selected manually.
Resolve Studio 20.0 build 49
Dell XPS 8700 i7-4790, 24GB RAM, 2 x Evo SSDs, GTX1060/6GB (572.16 Studio Driver), Win10 Home, Speed Editor, Faderport 1, Calibrated Eizo ColorEdge CS230 + BenQ & Samsung monitors for UI, Canon C100mk2, Zoom H2n.

Arif

When starting Resolve, you would have seen a GPU processing mode error dialog that mentioned driver updates.

Please try this AMD driver cleanup utility to clear existing driver files and reinstall the AMD recommended drivers. It will require a couple of restarts.

Please turn off your Windows DCH driver updates (marked optional in Windows updates) - these automatic driver updates have caused issues in the past, so once you find a working solution, turning it off prevents overwriting stable driver installations.

Hello Shrinivas

Before cleaning up the AMD drivers, I would like to know whether uninstalling the drivers would end up in a black screen or possibily in bricking of my computer.

That's a question better suited for AMD, as they're the authors of the software.
