The log says can't find usable device??
What to do?
Comments
As the log says, update your GPU drivers.
If it has been working before, are you allowing Windows to update your GPU drivers? The ones Windows is 'updating' to are not compatible.
This is the one and only place one should use for Nvidia drivers; https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
I've updated the driver to the latest through Geforce Experience.
But no luck
-------
Currently I switch to the DAZ3d public build version, it can do the iray.
My iray dead again.
I think it happened when I put my computer on sleep mode, when awaked, it didn't awake instead restarting, after that I can't do iray on public build version too.
Never mind,
It's alive again for both version.
I don't know what's going on
It stops again.
Does anyone has any idea, what could be wrong?
I have reisntalled the VGA driver. 536.99
Okay, hopefully I've fixed the problem.
It seems, the newest NVIDIA driver doesn't work well with DAZ3d.
So I installed an older driver 531.61 studio driver.
and the iray preview and render works again.
