Hi,

 

Please could I get some help from someone with experience.

 

My card is a nvidai rtx a2000 6gb. It is a workstation card.

 

I have tried to follow all the guides online but can't get the vbios to dump. Somone on reddit said you don't need to do that anymore not sure if that is true or not...

 

I have got the basic VM working with VNC but when I set to the nvidia card I can never get to the login section so unsure if it's working...

It should use the same IP as it uses on VNC which is 192.168.33.62

 

I don't know if you can set windows 10 pro to autologin?

 

Here is my XML file:

This is it with the multifunction set up. But I don't think it boots properley as I cannot RDP into it.

hello,

 

I'm considering buying a A2000 too when doing research i saw your post. 

Have you fixed the issue and successfully set it up in your unraid windows VM ?
