almulder Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 (edited) So I have a new server that I am working on getting ready, Fresh new Thumb Drive with 6.12.4 installed. I try and boot to GUI and non GUI mode, the screen stops responding at a line "ACPI: BUS TYPE DRM_CONNECTOR REGISTERED" Read up its because I have and Nvidia card installed without the drivers installed. So i put in an Radeon card and that works fine, so I installed the nvidia driver, rebooted once back to GUI i shut down, swapped cards and its again stuck. I can access the GUI via IP address, but still locks up at "ACPI: BUS TYPE DRM_CONNECTOR REGISTERED" regardless if I select GUI boot or not. Plus the nvidia driver page it shows this: Yet I have the latest driver installed. How can I get an nvidia card to work. Note: Motherboard = ASUS Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI Video Card: Nvidia GT 730 Edited September 5, 2023 by almulder Added Motherboard Info Link to comment
ConnerVT Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 You should post in the Nvidia Driver support thread. You will get better/faster response there. you should also post diagnostics. Link to comment
Mainfrezzer Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Just as a one off random chance shot in the dark.... You're not trying to boot in uefi mode are you? The 730 only works in legacy/bios mode. Link to comment
ich777 Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 @almulder please use the support thread from the Nvidia Driver plugin as @ConnerVT pointed out. ...please also include your Diagnostics in that post. Link to comment
ich777 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 @almulder did you solve your issue already? Link to comment

The 730 only works in legacy/bios mode. yes uefi mode, and i did get it to work, I had the most current firmware installed for nvidia, but that kept giving me issues, so I seen that ver 470.199.02 was listed and thought to give that a try. I installed that and the GT 730 booted into GUI mode without issue. Took me forever to figure out the issue but its resolved now. Edited September 7, 2023 by almulder added pic 1 Link to comment
Mainfrezzer Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Oh you got one of the kepler models. Certainly doesn't help that Nvidia releases 20 cards with the same name Link to comment

A GT730 is only compatible with the legacy v470.xx drivers but besides that, did you solve your boot issue? Please next time use the support thread which is linked on the plugin page right at the Nvidia Driver. Link to comment
