OpenCV_Perf_GPU.exe makes GPU crashed (Resolved)

edit

As documentation of OpenCV 2.4.9 suggested, I recompiled OpenCV to enable CUDA.

I found compiling was successful and all related unit test were passed by running opencv_test_gpu.exe. But when running opencv_perf_gpu.exe, it made my GPU crashed. I found following test was the one that made it happen. Of course, all tests after the test would fail. I wonder if this is something I can fix in my part or a bug in OpenCV. FYI, my system information follows.

UPDATE

I found my answer here. For some reason, For 32 bit Windows worked for me although my OS is 64 bit version. Here is what worked.

1. Exit all Windows based programs.
2. Click Start, type regedit in the Search box, and then double-click regedit.exe from the results above. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
3. Browse to and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers
4. On the Edit menu, click New, and then select the following registry value from the drop-down menu specific to your version of Windows (32 bit, or 64 bit):

For 32 bit Windows

a. Select DWORD (32-bit) value.
b. Type TdrDelay as the Name and click Enter.
c. Double-click TdrDelay and add 8 for the Value data and click OK.

For 64 bit Windows 

a. Select QWORD (64-bit) value.
b. Type TdrDelay as the Name and click Enter.
c. Double-click TdrDelay and add 8 for the Value data and clickOK.
5. Close the registry editor and then restart your computer for the changes to take affect.

The first failed test:
