NVIDIA Quadro M2000M

[Anonymous]

Good morning,

I purchased a new laptop DELL Dell precision 15 7000 , Windows 10 Pro (64 bit), Processore Intel® Core i7-6920HQ (quad- core da 2,9 GHz, NVIDIA Quadro M2000M.

With Revit 2016 I get an error chart telling me:  ' NVIDIA M2000M ' has not been tested with Revit  ".
The card M2000M is certified by Auteodesk, with a recommended driver. I tried to download the driver (DELL Driver Release for NVIDIA Quadro 354.13 [10.18.13.5413]) but does not install it because it is not compatible with Windows 2010.

What can I do to keep Windows 2010, install Revit 2017 (that runs with Windows 2010) and maintain M2000M?

Thank you in advance

Hi Maria Claudia,

As far as I can see, Neither Autodesk, nor Nvidia have drivers tested for Revit in W10.
I see two possible choices for giving it a try

Either the W10 Dell driver for you card or the Nvidia ODE W10 Driver for your card

Note that they are both very recent (less than a month), so it is natural that they aren't yet tested/certified.

This doesn't mean that they don't fully work with your Revit.

Nevertheless any of the should install seamlessly, as they're designed for Windows 10

Hope this helps,

Hi Francisco,

I first tried installing, with windows 10, both drivers (W10 Dell and the Nvidia ODEW10 Drivers) and, as you supposed, no I got results.

I then deleted Windows 2010 and installed Windows 2008 PRO.

The problem remains: the card M2000M is not read. 

a screen appears that says: "The installed videocard NVIDIA QUADRO M2000M has not been tested with Revit"

What should I do to finally resolve this problem?

Thanks

i don't see a problem

are you running into a performance problem with revit?

if not ignore that message

I have meny problem with performance of this card.

I have a desktop with installed an NVIDIA QUADRO K600.

Now I have jut purchased a new DELL laptop much more potent than desktop and with a card, the M2000M, certified by Autodesk for Revit, which is more performant compared with the K600. The cost was € 3,800.00, spending just to be able to work faster with Revit.

I did a test: I ran the same render, both from the workstation and from the laptop. The laptop spent more than twice as long to accomplish the same rendering. 

This to me is a huge performance problem, given the financial commitment that cost me.

Wonder now at Autodesk, which certifies that card with Windows. 8, how to solve my problem, considering that I have urgency to implement the program with that card.

I also wonder if it is possible to talk by phone with your expert technician in Rome, were I live, that will solve the problem quickly, even leading to him my laptop

Thank you

I am also having compatibility issues with the NVIDIA Quadro M2000M with Revit 2016 and rendering.  I am running Windows 7 on a brand new Dell 7510, with an Intel Quad Core i7-6820HG processor, 32 GB RAM.  The video card has 4 GB GDDR5.  I was producing fairly good renders on my old computer, with average performance devices.  Now I have this awesome computer, and I can't get a rendering to look right.  The drivers were updated this morning for the video card from the Autodesk website.  Much tweaking has occured, but Revit still does not recognize the video card.  This is what a render looks like, see attached file. Any help is appreciated!  Thank you!

Revit has never used the GPU for rendering it has always been the CPU & RAM

Thank you.  I had changed the settings on the video card to None to exclude the GPU and still got those results.  I don't know what else to change to make it look right.
