turbo enable

For the poeple that has installed the newer bios Version L2.35 for ASRockRack E3C246D4U any feed back on how its going? for me no problems.

after installing bios L2.35 no problems so far. no lock ups. no IPMI Event Log errors. igpu works and the ipmi remote screen works.

after submitting a ticket to asrock i got a reply to upgrade via i link to a ftp server for bios L2.35. going to try that and see how that goes.

i totally missed this comment. i just went back to p2.30 am going to try this. maybe this might fix some other peoples problems running the custom firmware. did not relies this was possible to get igpu working on factory firmware p2.30. i can comfirm this work to get the option to turn it on in bios and igpu works in plex.

do you have any ipmi logged event errors

been getting system lock ups on my asrock E3C246D4U with bios L2.34 found this error not sure it it is been since bios mod installed for igpu any one else having problems like this or know what this is i run lspci -vvnn and it seems related to 02:00.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Pericom Semiconductor PI7C9X2G304 EL/SL PCIe2 3-Port/4-Lane Packet Switch LnkCap: Port #0, Speed 5GT/s, Width x2, ASPM not supported LnkSta: Speed 5GT/s (ok), Width x1 (downgraded) 00:1d.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #9 [8086:a330] (rev f0) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) LnkCap: Port #9, Speed 8GT/s, Width x1, ASPM not supported LnkSta: Speed 2.5GT/s (downgraded), Width x1 (ok) 00:1d.1 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #10 [8086:a331] (rev f0) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) LnkCap: Port #10, Speed 8GT/s, Width x1, ASPM not supported LnkSta: Speed 5GT/s (downgraded), Width x1 (ok) 00:1d.2 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #11 [8086:a332] (rev f0) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) LnkCap: Port #11, Speed 8GT/s, Width x1, ASPM not supported LnkSta: Speed 2.5GT/s (downgraded), Width x1 (ok) anyone have ideas might try going back to the standard bios and see if that fixes it.

just some fyi from my problems i have a ASRock E3C246D4U2-2L2T with P2.10 bios and i can confirm igpu transcoding with a i7-8700T. on this setup the details as follow installed Intel GPU TOP and GPU Statistics nothing added to go file recently added to the plex container setting after igpu stopped working added device Name: /dev/dri Value: /dev/dri bios p2.10 has settings primary graphics adapter [onboard vga] igpu multi-monitor [enabled] onboard vga [enabled] I also have a ASRock E3C246D4U it was flashed with bios p2.30 but unraid was not detecting the (Display controller: Intel Corporation CometLake-S GT2 [UHD Graphics 630] ) I had to flash L2.34 bios to get the settings to get igpu in bios to detect in unraid. i had to mess around with unraid, to get it to work. Not sure what fixed it but it works now. Not exactly in order i did it all, as it was trial and error. what i did was flashed bios L2.34 install Intel GPU TOP and GPU Statistics Made sure transcoding was enabled in plex. hdr unselected. but still was not working, Then i did lots, and not sure what did it. eg added to the go file " modprobe i915 " I also had to remove the unraid boot usb and put into my windows computer and copied the file " i915.conf " from my working unraid server to the directory /config/modprobe.d as it was missing. i think it has something to do with white listing the driver, because i read some where it blocks it loading, which i believe what was my main problem. because it kept saying /dev/dri was missing. so the driver was not loading. change the relevant permissions on our Quick Sync Device which we do by typing into the terminal window: " chmod -R 777 /dev/dri " then edited container Head over to the Docker Tab, click on the your Plex container. Scroll to the bottom click on Add another Path, Port, Variable Select Device from the drop down Enter the following: Name: /dev/dri Value: /dev/dri after all this i finally got it to wok

go to vm settings and click the refresh button next to the Mac: save then run
