I have been banging my head against the wall for days on this issue. Searched every where on the forum tried many, many of things and just can't seem to get this figured out.

 

Below is my xml file

I don't see a vbios, do you just have one card?

Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

I have run a vbios dump and it should be seeing it.

 

<rom file='/mnt/user/domains/gpu rx6600.rom'/>

 

I should mention that it does boot into windows 10, stuck at 800x600 resolution & getting code 43

Code 43 typically needs the kvm hidden state if I recall

I tried adding

 

    <kvm>
      <hidden state='on'/>
    </kvm>

 

No success

 

Also made some other changes

 

<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'>
      <driver name='vfio'/>
      <source>
        <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x03' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>

      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0' multifunction='on'/>
    </hostdev>

      </source>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x1'/>
    </hostdev>

 

Still no success....I thought I had really fixed it with finding the bus mismatch for the graphics/sound side of the card.

So I spent yet another day working on this. Trying different combinations of configuration from pcie acs overide from within the gui & from the syslinux.cfg

 

Also decided to install windows on the bare metal just to see if their wasn't a problem with GPU. Unfortunately the card did work just fine in windows (sounds weird having that mentality)

video=efifb:off

in syslinux configuration

I have tried that along with video=vesafb:off 

No matter what I do, I get code 43 inside of windows. Honestly just dont get it, it's not the primary GPU in the bios either.

 

attached a fresh diagnostics

Found the problem finally! The motherboard I am running is an AsRock B660 Pro RS. It simply needed flashed & updated to the latest bios! Seems the problem was the bios wasn't recognizing that the graphics card was installed despite it being there inside of UnRaid & Windows. This in return wasn't allowing CSM to fully turn on!
