GPU Stability Test and GPGPU benchmark crash immediately

[RuudtS]

On several laptops (all 3 pcs with both Intel integrated graphics and Nvidia GPU), I've noticed that GPU Stability Test and GPGPU benchmark crash immediately in AIDA64 (v6.90, 6.92.6600 and 6.92.6603beta).

I think the problem lies in the fact that AIDA64 detects 5 different OpenCL GPUs (but actually there should only be two: IGP and Nvidia GPU).

See attached screenshot of GPGPU benchmark (default all GPUS are selected for benchmark).

Detected GPU 1 & 2 run the benchmark and it produces good results (I think).

Detected GPU 3 and 4 show only 12MHz and 1CU.

Detected GPU 5 shows 12MHz and 4 cores.

If I run GPGPU benchmark on GPU3 it takes forever, so I just stop it after 10minutes or so, without producing any result.

I am not that interested in OpenCL performance, I am more interested in stability testing atm.

So my question is: can I select in AIDA64 which OpenCL device(s) it should use in the stability test?

I just ran the GPGPU Benchmark on GPU 4 & 5.

GPU4 is the one that crashes immediately:  "Microsoft Basic Render driver" 

GPU5 the benchmark start but it's so slow to produce any results in 10 minute or so.

I forgot to mention that Stability test with GPU has worked before (only showing 2 GPUs).

Yes, you definitely have way too many OpenCL devices on your system than what's necessary or optimal.  I'm afraid it's not possible to select which GPU(s) to stress in the AIDA64 System Stability Test.  Try to clear up the OpenCL devices by for example uninstalling all video drivers, and installing them again both for your Intel iGPU and your nVIDIA dGPU.  For uninstallation you may find Display Driver Uninstaller useful.

Took a laptop with Intel 13700H (only IGP, no GPU), which had the same problem.

I disconnected it from Internet, ran DDU, cleaned Intel gfx driver, restarted  and installed latest Intel graphics driver v4826.

Still same problem. It runs for a while (4 minutes or so) and then AIDA64 disappears. 

AIDA64 stability test GUI is exiting (GUI disappears)  but the load is still there CPU is pegged at 100% in taskmanager (aida_bench64.dll).

I'd really like to use a single app for stressing cpu and gpu but I need to look for other tool now.
Could be avoided if user can select opencl GPU(s) in Stability test as well.

P.S.,
It's not the first time I had issues with OpenCL. I think it's not that reliable (probably due to poor driver support, if any).

I figured out how to resolve this issue.
As it turns out many MSI Laptops (gaming/creator) have a "OpenCL and OpenGL Compatibility Pack" installed, which makes more OpenCL GPUs (@12Hz) available to the system but these are not compatible with AIDA GPGPU benchmark or Stability test.

Uninstalling this "OpenCL and OpenGL Compatibility Pack" solve the problem. See attached picture.
It's also known as "Microsoft.D3DMappingLayers_8wekyb3d8bbwe".
