Please ensure all devices within the iommu_group are bound to their vfio bus driver.

By isolating (Tools - system devices) what you're attempting to passthrough from the OS?

 

Which ones should I enable?

 

IOMMU group 1?

 

It was mentioned earlier in this thread.  If you're attempting to passthrough the AMD card, you've got to isolate it.  Those current devices in group 1 aren't conducive to passthrough, so you'd have to use one of the ACS override settings.

The stuff before just forced the server to boot in BIOS and it wasn't clear why. I had to format the flash drive to get it to boot...

 

So, what did I miss? Do I just tick the box by the graphics card text? I don't understand

Yes, but the devices still have to be isolated via one of the ACS override options in Settings - VM Settings

I have done as instructed and I selected both and restarted.

 

Now I see - attached screenshot:

 

And the 'Execution Error' is:

 

operation failed: unable to find any master var store for loader: /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMF_CODE-pure-efi.fd

 

Thank you for your help!

Researching this error brings me to info about a Mac VM - I've never had one...

 

/mnt/user/system/custom_ovmf

 

What am I missing, @Squid?

So, the VM has started, but I have no picture on my monitor?

So close, but, not close enough!!

 

Anymore suggestions/ideas?

 

Thanks for your help, @ghost82 and @Squid

@SpaceInvaderOne - Do you have any ideas that I can try?

Still can't get a picture on my monitor and I have no errors. 

 

Any ideas?

Update, rebooted the server today and the loaded on screen.

Another step closer!! [emoji120]

What am I missing? Corrupt Windows OS?

Thanks for your help [emoji846]

I could be off base, I'm far from expert on VM passthrough, but that screen sure looks like something is incorrectly writing to the video RAM addresses. Are you using a video BIOS file currently? If so, was it dumped from that exact physical card?
