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? Quote 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. Quote 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 Quote 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. Quote Link to comment
