Allie under Windows 10

[Jamal Bubker]

Hi,
Does somebody manage to run Allie v0.8 under windows 10 ?
I tried but without success ...
When i try to launch Allie in console mode and execute "go" command, the engine is freezing and is not responding.
On my computer, I have both NVIDIA CUDA 10.1 (version V10.1.243 more precisely) and 11.1 installed.
Morever inside Allie folder, i copied the following libraries : cublas64_100,cublasLt64_10.dll,cudart64_100.dll, cudnn64_7.dll.

Thanks for your help

I have it running with Windows 10, version 2004 using the PhoenixStein 1.2 neural net.

Using CUDA Version 10.1.243.


These are the files in my Allie 0.8 folder.


Hope this helps!

Hi Sarona !
Thanks for your efforts made in order to help me
Your informations about CUDA version, libraries versions and date versions are a highly valuable help.
Unfortunately, Allie doesn't still run.
I tried everything :
1) I uninstalled CUDA version 11.1 in order to keep only CUDA V10.1.243.
2) I uninstalled completely CUDA V10.1.243 and then reinstall this version again + Cudnn version v7.6.3.30 and copied Cudnn library into Cuda\bin folder and into allie folder
3 )I uninstalled completely then CUDA V10.1.243 and I install Cuda_10.0.130_411.31 (First version 10 released) + Cudnn v7.3.0.29
But nothing to do allie doesn't run in command line or under winboard or Arena...

I have to mention that i am using a RTX 3080 Graphic Card. Is allie compatible with this graphic card ?
And you Sarona, what kind of Graphic card are you using ?

Is something wrong with my setup and my installation ? (See captures below please ):

Thank you again for your help,

The only other thing I can suggest is downgrading your graphics card driver to the version that was circa when 10.1 came out and not 11x. Sorry if this doesn't work

Hi Adam,
Please don't feel sorry for that ...
As a computer chess engine enthusiast, i am grateful toward every chess programmer and you are very gifted one
I will follow your last hint and upgrade graphic cards 10.0 to version 10.1.
I hope it will finally work, and if not, nevermind i will follow your chess engine in TCEC tournament

Adam you have found what was the problem : Graphics card drivers from any CUDA 10xx versions are not compatible with the RTX 3080 graphics card ... Only drivers from CUDA 11xx versions are compatible
