Python 3.5.5 |Anaconda, Inc.|          


        

Answer 1

Make sure you installed the right version of pytorch for your enviroment. I had the same problem I was using pytorch on windows but I had the default package installed which was meant for cuda 8. So I reinstalled the pytorch package for cpu which was what I needed.

Answer 2

I had this similar problem in windows 10...

Solution:

• Download win-64/intel-openmp-2018.0.0-8.tar.bz2 from https://anaconda.org/anaconda/intel-openmp/files

• Extract it and put the dll files in Library\bin into
  C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v9.0\bin

• Make sure your cuda directory is added to your %PATH% environment variable
