P102 and CMP Mining GPU Installation Instructions

Linux-based Mining OSes

Nothing special to do here – drivers should be included with any recent distro and install automatically.

Windows

Nvidia drivers do not natively support P102/CMP cards, but they can be modded to include them.

Option 1 – NVCleanInstall

1. Download NVCleanInstall: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/techpowerup-nvcleanstall/
2. Select “Manually select a driver version.”
3. Create new driver package using 496.76 as the base and click Next
4. Uncheck all components except for Display Driver.
5. Click Next and wait for driver to download and decompress.
6. Check “Add Hardware Support”
7. For template, select P104-100
8. Insert Correct ID
   • a. CMP 100-200: 1DC1 (if doesn’t work, try 1D83)
   • b. CMP 100-210: 1D84
   • c. P102: 1B47 (if doesn’t work, try 1B07)
9. Name GPU – this is what you will see in device manager. (“CMP 100-200”, etc)
10. Click Next and Install or Build Package for later installation.
11. Restart and you should be good to go!

Option 2 – Force driver install

In most cases you can just force the related devices to get the drivers to work – the device will still be detected by mining software as a P102/CMP and perform correctly. The device will most likely be found under “Other Devices” as 3D Video Controller.

1. Right Click device and choose Update Driver
2. Select “Browse my computer for drivers”
3. Select “Let me pick from a list….”
4. Uncheck Show Compatible Hardware
5. Pick NVIDIA on the Left Side
6. On the right side:
   • a. For P102, pick P104-100
   • b. For CMP, pick 90HX (Note – this will not always work, the only driver revision we guarantee will work is 496.76.)
7. Click Next and wait for the drivers to finish installing
8. Repeat for each GPU
