hashcat Forum

I’ve been using hashcat successfully on my own laptop and desktop but the other day when I tried to set it up for one my friends I encountered the following error:

oclHashcat-plus v0.08 by atom starting...

Hashes: 1

Unique digests: 1
Bitmaps: 8 bits, 256 entries, 0x000000ff mask, 1024 bytes

ERROR: ./kernels/4098/m2500.ATI RV730.64.kernel: No such file or directory



I tried searching the forums and also Google but I couldn't find anything useful.

The spec of the pc are:

CPU: intel quad 66xx
Graphics card: HD4600 series driver: 12-6-legacy_vista_win7_64_dd_ccc
Ram: 8gb
os: windows7 x64 ultimate

Any thought on how to fix this issue?
tnx

4xxx series are no longer supported

Quote:4xxx series are no longer supported

is there a way around this? i.e using an older version?

You could roll back your driver version, but newer versions of hashcat may not work.

Yes as radix said you will have to stick with the old version. Check the docs there is the info about the change. The change was made with v0.07 -> v0.08. v0.07 should be ok.
