Windows 10 VM works with VNC, but I get no video to monitor with GPU selected

Featured Replies

I have a windows 10 VM that had been running fine.  I upgraded to rc7, and had some issues with the VM crashing the whole server, so I thought I'd just make sure the XML was not an issue.  I notice that there are some new versions of i440fx and Q35, so I thought I'd try going from i440fx-2.5 to Q35-2.9, since latest is usually better.  I can start and use the VM witn VNC just fine.  I had to reinstall the network (and other) drivers, but this worked fine, and the windows VM seems to work just fine.

 

So, I shut it down, and changed it to use my nVidia GPU (which had been working just fine until today), and I can start the VM, and unRAID reports no errors, but I never get any video on the monitor that video card is connected to.

 

I've tried changing back to i440fx-2-9 (and 2-5), but same situation.  I've tried creating a whole new VM with the same image, and I get the same problem; no video (no input even registers on the monitor).

 

I'm stumped.

Any errors in the KVM log? Anything stick out in Window's Event Viewer?
