1. Verify that the GPU is seated in the PCIe slot correctly by reseating the GPU. Then power cycle
the system.
2. Verify that the power connectors to the GPU are connected firmly. Then power cycle the system.
3. Run nvidia-smi -q In some cases this will report a poorly connected power cable.
4. Rerun the diagnostics, using the same GPU, on system that is known to be working. A variety of
system issues can cause diagnostic failure.
