Nem Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I was under the impression that unraid that can run headless and that it doesn't need integrated/discrete graphics in order to run. I have a xeon e3 with no iGPU, but I have a gtx960 as well. I've been trying to pass the 960 through to a windows VM but I keep seeing a blackscreen Could this be related to the fact that the 960 is the only graphics device in my system? Or has anyone successfully passed through a gpu to windows VM when its the only device? Link to comment
jonp Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Correct. In a system with no onboard GPU, it appears as if only AMD cards work with pass through. You can get a cheapo GPU, install it in slot 1 on your mobo, then put your 960 in another slot. Link to comment
Nem Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 ah thats a shame. I'm on a mini-itx board and only have 1 pcie slot. OK, will take a look at replacing the cpu, thanks Link to comment
jonp Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Yup, not sure why this problem affects only NVIDIA GPUs but I can tell you this is something we can't fix from our end. Link to comment
