Hi,
My question is: is there a way to install the beta4 on a Windows machine that is lacking a GPU so that the CPU can be used as the ocl target device?
I'd like to use the beta4 runtime to target the CPU on a machine without a Radeon GPU, but the catalyst drivers won't install in the absence of a graphics card.
I've manually installed the aticalcl.dll, &c from a different machine, along with the demo applications.Now, when I try running one, I get:
$ ./RadixSort --device cpu
Error: clCreateContextFromType failed. Error code : CL_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND
For test only: Expires on Sun Feb 28 00:00:00 2010

search before ask.

Well, yes, as you can see from the fact that I can run the program at all, I have already extracted and installed the relevant dlls. The preplexing thing is that context creation is failing.

did you try run another examples. parameter --device isnt necessery it fall back to CPU automaticly.
did you have processor with SSE3 support?
That's it. The Pentium M in my test system doesn't have SSE3.
Thanks for pointing it out!
