I came back to Octane 2.3 and 258.96, the only driver and version that works.

Curiously, yesterday I have been able to use 2.4 with 260.99 during 2 hours...

I have uninstalled all graphic drivers , rebboted in safe mode, applied DriverSweeper to remove all remaining Nvidia things... reinstalled. No more success.


Hmm, not good. I'm really sorry to hear that and that I'm not of any help. There is definitely something wonky with your hardware/software configuration. We will release beta 2.4 also as CUDA 3.0 build which should work on your older graphics driver, too.

Finally, I have found the problem :

Octane behave like ignoring the external GPUs ! My Cubix with its two GTX480 seems to be not usable with Cuda 3.2 !

Non multi GPU is one thing, but in fact, External GPU are not usable too ! This is a really bad news ! My internal GTX260 doesn't provide me enough power and memory to render my current project.
