!!! IMPORTANT
If you are using the LLM in ComfyUI, it requires the Ollama server to run. You can start it by opening the Ollama app. Keep in mind that while Ollama is running, it uses VRAM. If you are not using Ollama, simply quit it from the taskbar notification area by right-clicking on the Ollama icon and selecting "Quit."
