Hello,

I am quite new to opencl. Lately I tried to play arround with opencl and python using pyopencl.

For some reason when i call get_platforms() the shell restarts.

i tried many things and nothing worked until i removedmy hd2600 from the system, and then i could get my x4 and my hd5770, but as soon as I got it in the system again everything stoped working...

is there any workaround for the problem?

i dont need to use the hd2600, i only use it for 2 additional displays

my setup:

Athlon II X4 640

MSI 870A-g54

Sapphire hd5770

sapphire hd2600

Windows 7 x64

Cat 13.5 beta (also tried with 13.4)

Cat legacy 13.4 beta (also tried with 13.1)

just say if any more info needed

One guess would be that the latest drivers do not play well with your old GPU, as they do not support it. It is a interesting problem, but i will have look around a bit, to give some suggestions.

Can you post whatever clinfo command spits out for you? You just need catalyst driver to run this command.

i think i also tried with 12.6, if I am not mistaken, were the last drivers with support for both gpu's, i would not think about it, if the other gpu and cpu could be used... probably when i try clinfo it will crash...

as soon as I get home, I will run it and post the result.

Is your problem resolved now?
