[resolved] Code 43, NVidia

[charleslabri]

I know this has been covered in older posts, but I wanted to start a new post as the other ones are quite old, and I am not seeming to have any success.

 

I am getting the Code 43 on my Quadro cards.

 

Resolutions this far that aren't working for me:

• FAQ 10, disable HyperV extensions, http://vfio.blogspot.com/2014/08/vfiovga-faq.html
  
• Put KVM in the 'hidden state', http://vfio.blogspot.com/2015/05/vfio-gpu-how-to-series-part-4-our-first.html
  
• Attempted changes between SeaBIOS and OVMF.
  
• Used older versions (~337.88) of the NVidia Drivers.
  
• Built windows10 and windows7 machines with all the variables above.

 

One of the requirements for the build I am doing is that I have up to date drivers. It *seems* like NVidia is really hating on this. Anyone have any success  building passthrough VMs with NVidia cards on current drivers?

 

If so, what have been your successful steps?

 

Thanks!

Do you have both vnc enabled and passing through the card at the same time?

[charleslabri]

I do. Can I not have the VNC driver and the passthrough going at once?

[saarg]

That is not possible. You can have it enabled while you install the driver, but after its installed you need to shutdown the VM and disable vnc.

That did the trick. I got too greedy

[saarg]

You can still rdp into windows  if you still want to be greedy

Thanks

 

My greed was more related to remote console access on the VM.. think safe mode and all that kind of love.
