  1. update to my problem.

     

    I tried an older nvidea card and managed for that to be passed through and show up in windows device manager (however had black screen on my monitor). However after putting driver in windows error was unable to assign resources to it.

     

    I am not interested in using the nvidea card but i was pleased to have actually got a vm to boot with passthrough enabled even though nothing would show onscreen !!

     

    However when I put either of my ati radeon cards in (54500 or 6450) I get unraid "error internal error: early end of file from monitor"

     

  2. Hi Guys... Has anyone sucessfully passed through a graphics card on a gen8 microserver with xeon processor.

     

    I have tried both a radeon hd 6450 and a radeon hd4550 and get the same error below. However i have no problem passing through usb devices.

     

    internal error: early end of file from monitor: possible problem:

    I have tried modifying my syslinux.cfg but has not worked (I dont really know what i am doing editing this file but used ones i have seen in forums).

    I have tried adding my gpu rom file to a share and putting it in the xml.

    Has anyone had success with gpu passthough on a gen8. If so which card have you used.

     

    I have been trying for a week now and really need help. Thanks
