    HI,

    EDEM is not showing any Nvidia GPU card so it maybe that your system doesn't have a Nvidia GPU installed? The Intel graphics doesn't support CUDA which is required for EDEM GPU.

    I would recommend confirming the GPU installed, for the drivers the Nvidia site is best:

    Download The Latest Official NVIDIA Drivers

    Hi Stephen, please tell me this. Will the EDEMsolver work with a computer that uses an AMD graphics card?

    No for GPU solver it's Nvidia CUDA only. NVidia Gforce RTX 2070 should be compatible, drivers would be available via the Nvidia site. When EDEM checks if a GPU is compatible it runs nvidia-smi command, which is useful to check as if that command doesn't run then there would be some issue with the GPU install.

    You would be able to run CPU with AMD but not GPU.
