Blank Screen, No OVMF Access


Recommended Posts

Started a few weeks ago, all my vm's. I get a blank monitor with no signal until I get to the gui. I no longer see the titancore screen or the windows loading screen on startup. If I tell windows to boot into the uefi I just get no signal. When I start Arch Linux I have nothing until the password screen of the gui.

 The issue is I reinstalled Arch and now I can't really trouble shoot the passthrough because the screen doesn't work as soon as I add the gpu.

After much headache trying to figure this out I used spaceinvaders script and dumped my own vbios. This fixed the black screen issue. I can now access my vm bios by pushing esc at startup.

I foolishly thought that because the vm somewhat worked and actually used to work with no vbios that this could not be my issue. I also thought that since I grabbed a vbios from tech power up that matched my card perfectly that was good enough. My advice  : DUMP YOUR OWN VBIOS NO MATTER WHAT
