The main reasons I think it's the gpu is due to changing pcie to 3.0 reduced the frequency of the random crashes and when I hit the gpu with a load it crashes. I might just have a hardware issue though as I haven't changed anything between 2/04/25 - 1/16/26. no new Docker/LXC/VM. I plan to run an extended mem test to see if anything shows up there. anyway thanks for the help!

from https://forums.unraid.net/topic/98978-plugin-nvidia-driver/page/210/#findComment-1594177 from 12/04/25 until about 1/16/26 everything was running fine. but a few days ago my unraid started randomly crashing. I changed pcie from auto to 4.0 and that didn't do anything. but changing it to 3.0 appears to have made it slightly more stable but it will still crashes. going from every other hour to once a day or so. I tried setting it to 2.0 instead of 3.0 but that had the same results as 3.0. both Above 4G Decoding is enabled and Resizable BAR Support is enabled. ran the mem test and had no errors. I have syslogs for the last few days but im not sure if those are safe to share. So I have included a screenshot of the error from right before the most recent crash. attached are my driver info, nividia-smi, tower diagnostics, and my syslog error. @ich777 if you say it's safe to include my syslogs I will add them. Thank you for all the help and sorry to be back asking for more.

THANK YOU. That was the issue....

ok looks like the boot issue was related to 7.2.2 but now I can't get it to detect the gpu. uploading the new images and diagnostics. is it possible I just have a defective gpu?

it goes to the boot gui and then the display says no signal and turns off. in about 5 min it will try again. when using unraid 7.0 it would not detect the gpu driver. I'm going to try rolling the os back to 7.0 to see if that might fix things. my intent is to only use the 5060 but until I can solve the boot issue I will have to keep the p2000 thanks for helping with what you can!

diagnostics attached.

So I'm pretty sure I messed up. I have been running a p2000 for a while with no issues. I got a 5060ti the other day and was getting this issue. NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. I got the v580.95.05 open source driver but was still getting the issue. I restarted a few times, change pcie to gen 4, updated bios, uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin, and updated unraid from 7.0 to 7.2.2. The error then changed to something like No devices were found. I tried restarting, then I tried running "nvidia-smi -pm 1" from the xploit61 post on November 2nd. I can't remember if I ran this one as well or not "nvidia-persistenced" from ich777 post on November 2nd. However, now when I try to reboot it goes to the boot gui and then the display is gets no signal and unraid does not launch. I am able to get unraid to launch with my p2000 or with my p2000 and 5060ti. when I have both in they now show up for whatever reason. but I can't get it to boot with just the 5060ti. attached is a screen shot of the plugin page and 'nvidia-smi' output. I am unsure how to pull server diagnostics without ip and info at this moment. thanks for any and all help in advance!
