Hey, I know I'm not the first with this problem, I tried searching for solutions but didn't found anything that actually helped.. Anyway the problem I'm having is that I don't have output on my screen when I boot my VM. What is happening: - Computer boots in the console - I start the vm through the web ui - Screen goes black (no signal input) I checked the following: - VT-d is enabled in uefi - HVM: Enabled - IOMMU: Enabled (I fully installed Windows through the VNC and then changed the graphics card. Following the video tutorials on the site.) I could remote desktop in the machine however I may have broken my windows installation: Another thing I tried was setting the default graphics output (in uefi) to the intergrated gpu. Then I started the Windows VM and changed the input to the graphics card, no luck. I noticed that the graphics card was detected in the device manager however the drivers weren't loading so I installed the drivers and rebooted the VM. After that I had an output on my display! Buttt it was in a BSOD-boot-loop caused by system_thread_exception.. Not sure what caused it, my guess the driver? The automatic repair doesn't work either (getting the same bsod while it is trying to start that.) Anyway how should I proceed? Do I need to change some setting to have output on my graphics card? My plan now is to reinstall Windows again and use the same configuration in the uefi that it defaults to the intergrated, then boot windows and change the input.

Ps: I also found this thread: https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=47151.0 I'm not exactly sure what saarg means but if he is suggesting to put the card in another slot that is not possible for me. I only have one PCI slot which can fit the dual slot graphics card. Ps2: I tried the PCIe ACS Override setting since there was more in that group (I believe??)
