ItsRaining Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) No matter what settings and port combination I try. I CANNOT get this USB Controller to passthrough. To my understanding when it is grayed-out like this Unraid is using it. I removed all my VMs and have nothing else running in Unraid but no matter what the controller is grayed-out. MSI B550-Creator Motherboard with VM ACS set to Both. I have been trying to get a decent gaming VM to work for months. When passing just the devices there is a huge FPS drop and I just cannot figure out why I cannot pass the USB controller through. I am close to just using Windows again but there are so many limitations. Edited August 10, 2022 by ItsRaining Quote Link to comment

ItsRaining Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 Thank you for the reply. I am not trying to passthrough the Unraid USB group. I want to passthrough the USB controller I have (its a PCIe controller not part of the mobo). Its in group 18 (04:00.0). Quote Link to comment

ItsRaining Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 The ethernet is part of a dock. I will try without using the dock thank you for the tip. Quote Link to comment

Not looked at you diags yet. You are the man! I cannot believe this was the issue. So the ethernet is part of a Kensington Dock. Is there a way I can force Unraid to unbind it or something similar to allow the dock to be passed through? Quote Link to comment
