Hey all! I am hoping that someone may have an explanation for the issue I am facing.
I recently purchased a Lenovo Nvidia P400 and was attempting to install it, but I have run into a couple of issues. Here is what I did:
1. Upon boot, it appeared as though the system was defaulting to the PEG, which made it not possible to view the Motherboard startup sequence, or Unraid startup sequence where I log in to the system. I just waited a certain amount of time so that I knew I was at the password portion, typed my password blind, and success! Booted successfully into Unraid.
2. I went to install the Nvidia plugin, but when I went to install the Unraid version, the Plugin interface just sat on "Updating Available Builds". It never loaded past that part, no matter what settings or how ever many restarts I conducted.
3. I checked to see if there were any additional settings associated with my motherboard that is required for this card, but I couldn't seem to find anything. The card is seated correctly, and the PCI-E power from the PSU is connected to the motherboard (card doesn't have a direct connection).
4. Without the card installed, the system boots appropriately into Unraid including the appearance of the Motherboard and Unraid startup sequences
Here is some info about my set-up for ease of diagnosing:
Motherboard: MSI B360 Gaming Plus
CPU: Intel Celeron G4900
GPU: Lenovo Nvidia P400***
-PCI Express Graphics set as primary boot device
-Integrated graphics multi-monitor is enabled
The only thing that I can think of as being an issue with this is that it is a Lenovo card instead of a PNY. Not sure how different the cards are in terms of compatibility, but I might also be missing something else.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
