I'm trying to get the CUDA 4.2 toolkit to work with Visual Studio 2010 (c++ express edition). I'm running this on Microsoft Windows 64 bit. I have the SDK, the toolkit and Nsightâ„¢ Visual Studio Edition 2.2 currently installed, as well as Visual Studio 2010 (c++ express edition). I have CUDA fully installed and working properly in itself, yet when I try to open a source project with Visual Studio 2010, I get this error:
Unable to read the project file "bandwidthTest_vs2010.vcxproj".
C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.2\
C\src\bandwidthTest\bandwidthTest_vs2010.vcxproj(65,5): The
imported project "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp
\v4.0\BuildCustomization\CUDA 4.2.props" was not found.
Confirm that the path in the Import declaration is correct,
and that the file exists on disk.
I have tried uninstalling the toolkit and the SDK and reinstalling, and this did not fix the issue.
I think if someone could simply give me the files, then it might work. However, I am still worried as to why I am having this issue in the first place.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
