openelec nvidia gt520 freezes whole system.


Recommended Posts

Hello, I am a new user to unraid and i have googled and googled this issue and cannot seem to find a proper resolution.

 

Only Success:

When using VNC Emulated Display

The Problem; When selecting NVIDIA GT520 as my GPU Option

 

Starting openelecVM shows OPENELEC splash and shows version at the top. _ blinks for a few seconds then stops. at this point the entire machine locks up, all VMs stop, web interface stops, ssh stops, the primary monitor login: _ continues to blink but will no longer accept keyboard input.

What have I tried:

I have tried booting via openelec template, and Custom VM following this guide https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=44683.0

 

w/+w/o PCIE Overide enabled/disabled

 

w/ +w/o       

<qemu:arg value='-cpu'/>

<qemu:arg value='host,kvm=off'/>

 

w/ +w/o

manually specifying my rom through the VM

This is the gpu http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/110145/zotac-gt520-1024-110719

UPDATE:

I have gotten windows server to output display to the GT520 however the device is coming up as Microsoft Display Adapter.

the GT520 audio/video are the only devices in its group(3)
