Crap, I am getting Code 43 on the Nvidia card after a big Windows 10 version update. Anything I can do?

I just ran 3D mark and I wasn't disappointed! Looked awesome, Windows updates are running now, I am ecstatic!

This is how you add the rom file in 6.2 rc: <rom bar='on' file='/etc/fake/boot.bin'/> Try using this instead of the line you use now. Same placement as the old line. I also see that you are using q35-2.5 instead of the default i440f-2.5. Try changing it back to the default. Another thing to try that have helped is to change multimonitor option in the bios to auto or on. Don't know if you have that option, but I see that your motherboard has both DVI and HDMI, so worth a try. Wow! I was succesfull at first with the old notation and using Seabios but the VM wouldn't come back when windows restarted. I just modifidied it to this and it was successful. It even survived a Windows Reboot. Thanks for this!

Once I started the VM I did LSPCI as well and then the GPU had the Kernel driver for VFIO-PCI loaded. So I unbinded it, dumped the ROM, bound it again and reconfigured the XML of the VM to have the BIOS included. Still a black screen

Yes did that as well. Once I started the VM I did LSPCI as well and then the GPU had the Kernel driver for VFIO-PCI loaded. So I unbinded it, dumped the ROM, bound it again and reconfigured the XML of the VM to have the BIOS included. Still a black screen

I am getting the same error here: root@Tower:/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0# cat rom /mnt/user/isos/bios.rom cat: rom: Input/output error cat: /mnt/user/isos/bios.rom: No such file or directory Also extracting the bios with GPU-Z doesnt help to get a screen output on my VM. Where you able to solve it? My display for unraid is connected to my Intel HD graphics and VFIO-PCI was already not a kernel driver when I listed LSPCI -v

Well I see other posts with the same content but not the solution. So LSPCI doesn't list any Kernel driver in use, suggesting it's needed to unbind from vfio-pci. I am getting a similar error when dumping the bios: root@Tower:/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:04:00.0# cat rom > /boot/vbios.dump cat: rom: Input/output error Update: I was able to get the rom after it was assigned to the VM and it was the VFIO-PCI driver was loaded. So now I extracted the ROM and booted the VM. Need to wait until I get back home to see if I resolved the black screen issue.

Yes without succes. Although I hadn't added the gpu bios at that point. Would it make sense to use seabios with my Skylake setup? Could you post your Diagnostics.zip? You'll fin it in the webgui under Tools --> Diagnostics. Where did you get the BIOS from? Did you create it or downloaded it? Might be worth a try to make it yourself. Details in this post. I made it with GPU-Z, I don't have a 2nd pci slot as this is an MITX board. I extracted while having the monitor connected to the Intel graphics but drivers installed on a Windows 10 machine. Attached my diagnostics. As you already use the onboard GPU, you don't need to move the card to another slot. The eason for him moving it was that he didn't get a proper dump when the GPU was used for the console. Thanks for clearing that up. I went into the console and used the guide to try and attempt the extraction. I get an error while unbinding the GPU, it tells me there is no such device and then when I try to move the ROM to the boot directory it also gives aan io error. What should I make of that?

I have been toying around with unRAID because of the ease of virtualization with GPU passthrough. I am stuck with the GPU passthrough and have tried many things. I can setup VMs but I can't have any display video output on my dedicated GPU. Here is my setup: ASRock H170M/AC ITX Mainboard (Bios setup to display host OS output on Intel HD graphics, VT-D/x enabled) Intel G4400 CPU (Intel VT-D & VT-X enabled) Gigabyte GTX 560Ti OC 1GB card Unraid latest beta.
