# Windows

Although the project's documentation provides instructions on downloading NVIDIA driver and CUDA Toolkit (kindly check [here](https://developers.io.net/docs/overview)), some users may encounter difficulties in selecting the appropriate NVIDIA driver version for their GPU, encounter errors during CUDA Toolkit installation, or forget to install WSL2. Therefore, I'll guide you through resolving these issues.

### A. Selecting the Correct NVIDIA Driver Version

* Open Powershell
* Type this command in Powershell to check your GPU model: 

```arduino
wmic path win32_videocontroller get caption
```

* Choose the correct Driver version [*https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx*](https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx)

### B. Fixing CUDA Toolkit Installation Errors

Installation errors while installing CUDA Toolkit are common issues encountered by many users. Follow these steps to resolve the error:

1. When reinstalling CUDA Toolkit, opt for Custom (Advanced) installation.<br>

2. After selecting the custom installation option, expand the CUDA section and uncheck the option for "**Nsight Compute**" to exclude it from the installation. This step ensures that only the necessary components are installed, reducing the likelihood of errors.<br>

3. Proceed with the installation process.
