Hi there, I just installed a Win10 VM on my Server for playing Civilization remotely (via Steam in Home Streaming). Everything went smooth with the new UnRaid 6.2 installation it was a breeze, including the former complicated GPU passthrough. However, one Issue: My computer does not seem to use my GPU (Radeon HD5770). In Catalyst Control Center, it shows as disabled. I think it is because I don't have a monitor physically connected to my GPU. I know there is "Dummy Plugs" to put into your GPU to make it work. My question: Is there a software solution? Because im currently about 2500miles away from my server, so I wont physically plug anything in my server anytime soon. Any suggestions? Thank you very much in advance!

Hello folks, This is my Story... ... and these are my questions: Can you disable (e.g. completely turn off / cut power consuption) and enable PCI-E Graphics Cards at will? If yes, is it possible to tie this to a VM? My dream scenario: Unraid server running 24/7 (or maybe S3 with Wake on Lan) and the graphics cards are only turned on when I fire up a VM that actually uses them. If I power down the VM, the graphics card will be turned off completely. I have a few "old" Graphics Cards lying around (GTX 570, Hd 5770) and I dont want them to make noise or consume power when nobody is using them. Because its older cards, even idle consumption is still an issue. Is any of this possible? Thanks in advance!
