Hardware Installation

Installing the Tesla C1060 hardware involves opening up your computer.

Note: All hardware must be installed prior to installation of software.

Before You Begin

If you have an NVIDIA graphics solution, either as a discrete card or as

on-board graphics on your motherboard, you will need to uninstall the

NVIDIA graphics software driver before installing your Tesla card.

Note: This does not apply to Linux based systems. It

only applies to Windows based systems.

Tesla C1060 Installation Guide

Tesla C1060 Installation

A computer system with an available PCI Express ×16 slot is required

for the Tesla C1060. For the best system bandwidth between the host

processor and the Tesla C1060, it is recommended (but not required)

that the Tesla C1060 be installed in a PCI Express ×16 Gen2 slot.

Because there are so many different computer systems on the market,

the installation procedure for the Tesla C1060 can vary from system to

system. Use the following instructions as a guideline and consult the

documentation for clarication of computer specic procedures.

Note: It is important that all power to the computer be removed

(unplugged) before you install the computing board.

You must also discharge your body’s static electricity before

handling sensitive components. Simply touch a grounded

surface (for example, the computer chassis) before beginning.

7

Use the following procedure to install the Tesla

C1060 into your computer system.

Note: To simplify reconnections, label cables as they are disconnected.

Turn off your computer and monitor and disconnect the power cord 1.

at the outlet or at the back of your system (depending on the system).

Open your computer chassis (refer to your 2.

system documentation for details).

Remove the slot bracket for the two adjacent slots, if they are still 3.

covered. The Tesla C1060 computing board is a dual-slot board and

will take up two (2) slots. Save any hardware (such as screws) to use to

anchor the Tesla C1060 computing board after it is seated properly.

The Tesla C1060 requires two

PCI Express x16 slots.

Hardware Installation

8

Tesla C1060 Installation Guide

Connect either one 8-pin PCI Express auxiliary power connector 4.

coming from the computer power supply to the 8-pin power

connector on the top edge of the board, or connect two 6-pin PCI

Express power connectors from the power supply to the 8-pin and

6-pin power connectors on the board. The 8-pin power connector on

the board is keyed so that the 6-pin power cable will t in only one

conguration.

5. Reinstall the computer cover and any

cables that were removed earlier.

Note: If you are using two 6-pin power connectors, you

must ensure that the power supply can drive enough

power through the 6-pins to the power connector.

Connect two (2) 6-pin

PCI Express power

connectors into both

power connectors on

the edge of the board

Connect one (1) 8-pin PCI

Express power connector

on the edge of the board

Driver Installation

This section contains the instructions to install the software drivers

within a Windows environment or within a Linux environment

Windows Installation

The required software for the Tesla C1060 includes the CUDA

drivers, which should also serve as the driver for the NVIDIA

discrete or on-board graphics processor. It is recommended that

driver installation be carried out either using the installation CD

that comes with the Tesla C1060 or by downloading the most

recent CUDA drivers available at http://www.nvidia.com/cuda.

Note: Use only drivers that are designated to support Tesla C1060.

Not all NVIDIA graphics drivers support the Tesla C1060.

Power up your computer 1.

If the LEDs on the Tesla C1060 board turn red, then you have

likely failed to connect the auxiliary PCI Express power connectors

properly. Go back to the hardware installation steps and re-check the

connectors for proper installation. Reconnect if necessary and power

up again.

The following table is a list of different possible scenarios as well as

the resulting behaviors.

Driver Installation

Click 2. Cancel each time the Windows Found New Hardware

Wizard window displays. It will display one or more times.

Insert the installation CD. The auto-install 3.

takes over and installs the drivers.

Right-click on the CD driver and select 4. AutoPlay or explore the les on

the CD and double click Launch.exe if it does not begin to auto play.

Click 5. Install Driver from the Tesla Software Installation screen.

12

Select 6. I accept the terms of the license agreement.

Click 7. Next.

Click 8. Next when the Welcome to the InstallShield

Wizard window displays.

13

Driver Installation

Click 9. Continue Anyway when the Hardware Installation warning window

displays.

This warning tells you that the drivers you are about to install have

not passed the windows logo testing (WHQL). WHQL is a Microsoft

testing procedure that is required

before Microsoft approves the

software. Clicking Continue

Anyway will not harm your system.

These drivers are currently under

WHQL testing. If you do not

see this warning, the drivers have

passed the testing requirements.

Select 10. Yes, I want to restart

my computer now.

Click 11. Finish to complete the installation and restart your system.

Note: If you are a software developer using CUDA, after

rebooting, return to the CD Software Installation window

and run Install Toolkit and then Install Samples.

Tesla C1060 Installation Guide

Once you have the

computing board

installed and verify

it is functioning, you

can customize setting

for your particular

application. Visit

www.nvidia.com for

information particular

to your application.

Control Panel Setup

Select 1. Standard or Advanced views depending on your preference for

the Control Panel view selection. The Advanced view allows the user

to select and modify application proles through the control panel.

Select 2. Do not enable SLI technology Conguration settings

are application-dependent so you will need to congure

SLI after the Tesla C1060 software has been installed

and you hve veried proper operation. Visit www.nvidia.

com for application conguration information.
