xavierda Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Hi there, Adding to the list of posts about 6.10.3 and GPU Passthrough, especially for older NVIDIA hardware. I recently got a hold of an older GTX660 card. This is the second card (the first being a basic GT1030 in slot 1) in the system. Further setup: M/B: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. X399 SLI PLUS (MS-7B09) Version 2.0 BIOS: American Megatrends Inc. Version A.70. Dated: 11/14/2018 CPU: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X 16-Core @ 3500 MHz HVM: Enabled IOMMU: Enabled Cache: 1536 KiB, 8 MB, 32 MB Memory: 32 GiB DDR4 (max. installable capacity 512 GiB) Network: eth0: 1000 Mbps, full duplex, mtu 1500 Kernel: Linux 5.15.46-Unraid x86_64 I have poured over these forums for weeks - SpaceInavder1 videos, and so on. I finally thought I managed to get it working - no error 43, and looking great via HDMI output to an LG 34" widescreen. However, every few minutes or more it seems to lock up, becoming unresponsive to keyboard or mouse input; Unraid remains unaffected. The Windows event log seems to have entries: "The description for Event ID 14 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found." Tried the main solutions available on the web to little avail. More info: BIOS was dumped from the card using SpaceInvader's UserScrip method. Latest NVIDIA drivers installed (for this card 473.47).

But the VM is not usable Anyone else encountered this freezing/lockup issue? Note, I get great output and the driver appears to be working in Device Manager - just need to wait a few minutes and it will freeze. Thanks in advance! Xav. Quote Link to comment
