What is the issue?

Update to Ollama to v0.22.1 and NVIDIA Driver: version 582.28 (01.28.2026), ollama ignores GPU and runs 100% on CPU.

Observation - 04.27.2026 ollama runs BUT "ollama ps" shows 100% CPU.

Spent hours and tried Set Environment Variables / different combinations (from Google sources) to no avail - CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES = 0 OLLAMA_VULKAN = 1 ROCR_VISIBLE_DEVICES = 0

Resolution -workarond reinstall

  1. Ollama v0.21.3 https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases/tag/v0.21.3-rc0
  2. NVIDIA Driver: version 581.80 (10.20.2025)

Fact - ollama ps confirms 100% GPU running tinydolphin and mixed of CPU/GPU runnign gemma3. Task Manager GPU also shows GPU activity throughout ollama run.
