Hi All,

I am trying to get Unraid to passthrough RX 580 to a windows 10 1909 VM. Currently I am able to pass it through to Ubuntu VM, but not windows. I do not see any error in the logs, but (I hope) I am missing something...

 

Would greatly appreciate if someone could take a look. My main goal is to be able to use Lightroom and play some windows games. My Ubuntu laptop is doing pretty good with games (Lutris/Steam) but Lightroom is a big nono here :|. 

 

Setup: unRaid 6.8.2, ASRock - AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac, Ryzen 5 3600, XFX RX 580 8GB

 

Things that I have tried:

- UEFI boot/legacy boot

- IOMMU set to 'both' to have a separate group for GPU and soundcard

- passing ROM to the GPU

- using i440fx/Q35 machine

 

The 'furthest' i got is with Q35, UEFI enabled. I was able to:

- start the machine with GPU assigned

- login using splashtop

- and that is it...

- device manager does not have a 'Display Device'

- AMD drivers throw error 182, cannot find device

 

Currently the machine starts, my external monitor goes black. I am unable to login remotely into the machine, or gracefully shut it down.

 

I noticed that once I 'force quit' the windows VM, I am unable to boot Ubuntu (although there is no error). Ubuntu machine is marked as 'started', but is not responding.

 

I am attaching the XML as well as diagnostics zip.

Hi all, I was able to solve this problem by booting of an old hard drive, installing windows there and then passing it through to the machine.
