ne10g Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 I'm moving forward! Although the Unraid box "hung" as in froze on the screen, it did start, which is good...so I then went ahead and built a W10 VM, chasing to use the 2080ti....started it...and BOOM the display kicked in on my main monitor. So just going through and installing W10 now. It's a step in the right direction, as I do not need to actually "see" Unraid, happy to start it headless now. That leaves the 1650 to play with as well. Thanks @civic95man for your patience and advice so far, invaluable! Quote Link to comment
civic95man Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Sorry, I was reviewing the motherboard manual and no, you can't select the primary display. Its usually the card in the first slot so you could try to physically swap your 2080ti and 1650 in their slots and see if the 1650 comes up as primary. If you do this, it will most likely swap around their location within the IOMMU group and move them to different addresses, so you will need to change your binding and the VM gpu assignment. But since you have it working, you can decide if you really need to admin it locally or remotely via the web interface. In either case I'm glad you have it working and glad I could help you some. 1 Quote Link to comment
