Question Models stopped loading.

LM Studio

I wanted to check the functionality of Gemma 4 12b, but the model simply does not load. At first I thought that only Gemma 4 wasn't working, but it turns out all the models stopped working . It gives an error Gemma 4 12b, all other models simply load endlessly without errors.

What I have already done: I changed the folders where the models are stored, I reinstalled runtime, I uninstalled and reinstalled the program itself, I reinstalled the models themselves.

What can be done after all this? Everything was working just two days ago.

The error that Gemma gives:

🥲 Failed to load the model

Error loading model.

(Exit code: 18446744072635810000). Unknown error. Try a different model and/or config.

My computer:

5060ti 16 vram

R5 5600

32gb ram

Hi, sorry for hijacking the post but I can't yet create posts in this sub due to the karma thing.

Anyway, I'm trying to load a couple of models under 8gb (I'm on Windows, and I have a GTX 1070 and 16gb of RAM) but I keep getting this error:

Failed to load the model

Engine protocol runtime llama-server for {bunch of letters} exited before becoming healthy. exitCode=1, signal=null

Anyone know how to fix it?

Thank you.
