I also uninstalled Steve's versions, then reinstalled 2.3, without having it launch at login. I kind of figured Battery Helper, which starts up during login, might be a factor, so I uninstalled it. Simply clicking to switch the GPU freezes everything. I tried both versions of fork/fix, but, that didn't work at all. I've had this issue of switching to discrete first, then only to integrated the second time round, and then sometimes, it will switch to integrated right away, but, the MBP will hang, forcing me to do a hard-restart. I found your fix, tried it, and it worked every now and then. Then it was really bad, since I couldn't start the MBP up at all.Ī couple of months ago, it started giving out again, even though the AHT didn't register anything wrong with the hardware, I was sure it's the same graphics card issue. There is a chance that it would keep working for a few years more, which is just enough.Īnd yes, Apple My MBP Early 2011 has had its logic board replaced before the program expired in 2016.

I don't have to reboot too often - just close the lid and don't update.Ĭhances are, it would still brick soon, but it's something I wanted to try before putting it in the dump.

even if the GPU breaks again, cpu would be able to boot up and then gpu-switch would switch to integrated-only.

with the discrete GPU disabled, the CPU will not generate enough heat to make the GPU relapse.

I've used gpu-switch to execute it on startup (from crontab). Once you get up and running, disable the discrete GPU and don't reboot. This would make it come back to life for a bit more (note, everyone agrees this is a temporary hack only). While there, also re-greased the cpu + gpu with a proper arctic silver thermal grease. Mine also didn't even get past the apple logo, but I tried the idea on the net where you disassemble the logic board and apply 120-160 celsius degrees temperatures with a heat gun.

If I can fix it, I MIGHT buy another mac product, but I'd hate to get caught in this kind of a lurch again just because I don't shell out enough money for Apple when they screw up. So now I'm using the discrete chip with slow graphics, and I don't know if I can even USE the integrated chip.

Thanks Apple for locking me out of my machine completely.).

I don't know if that's because I had to move the driver (after going to target disk mode and using my wife's Mac because Sierra won't let you move any files if you can't boot into Recovery mode, which I couldn't, to turn off rootless. At any rate, I can't get v2.3 to switch to integrated graphics as it continues to claim I'm using an external monitor. If their "vintage" (yeah, that's the term they use) macs can't be replaced with anything comparable, don't know what else to do. And, worse yet, Apple won't fix it claiming they no longer have the parts to do so (possibly true, but who knows the truth but them), or offer any kind of monetary settlement to fix anything like the program offered people who attempted to fix it prior to their program. I’m running CUDA in my Mac Retina smoothly.Yeah, I pretty much had the same thing happen.

If anyone has run into this problem will you please share with me what you did to solve it? Thanks.Ĭonsidering you know how to install CUDA using Xcode 4.3, I think you have just to turn of “Automatic graphics switching” in “System Preferences”->“Energy Saver”. I have tried downloading CUDA 4.2 and 4.0 and both give the same result. Here is the error message that I get.ĬUDA Device Query (Runtime API) version (CUDART static linking) bash_profile file, I tried running the deviceQuery only to find that I can’t. After installing all of these and making sure my path variables are correct in the. I installed XCode from the App Store and then installed the 3 different files from NVIDIA needed to work with CUDA (CUDA Device Driver, CUDA toolkit, and Computing SDK).

I have an older mid-2009 MBP that has a working version of CUDA. I am working with CUDA for my graduate degree and would like to be able to use it on my new laptop but for some reason I am unable to get it to work properly.
