hashcat Forum

when I run cudahashcat64.exe -m10 MD5:SALT. The process starts but after 10 seconds, I start getting WARN: NvAPI_GPU_GetThermalSettings() -1 NVAPI_ERROR.

Hashcat seems to hang from there and I cannot seem to crack the MD5. Anyone has any idea of what is happening or what that error is?  I have version 1.36 with the latest driver from NVidia 353.62 GeForce GTX 780M video card.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you
