Title: 6GPU rig wont boot, works fine with 5GPU. Post by: Imelbi on September 19, 2017, 10:42:21 AM hey guys,
I am trying to set up mining rig with 6 Nvidia Zotac 106-100. I am using H110 D3A motherboard. I have tried updating bios, i tried every possible way with GPU raiser combination. It is not raiser or GPU problem, i think its motherboard problem. PSU shoudn't be a problem neither. When I say pc doesnt boot, I mean that PC starts and doesn't show gigabyte logo. Afterwards monitor shows black screen with flashing cursor in left top corner. After few minutes it says to insert bootable device. I have a lot of experiance with mining rig building, but never have seen any problems like that. Only thing that I can think of is that Zotac Gpu isn't totally compatible with h110-d3a motherboard. I would appreciate any help. Title: Re: 6GPU rig wont boot, works fine with 5GPU. Post by: brownfly on September 19, 2017, 01:22:20 PM I had something similar with another MB in the beginning. Z270. What was surprising, the boot option for Win 8 did the trick. Otherwise it did not see the M2 drive and refused to boot.

Also maybe your mobo and software don't get along to well. Title: Re: 6GPU rig wont boot, works fine with 5GPU.

- How did you installed the operation system ? Most of times UEFI installation can fix that issue with proper bios settings ... - So your computer is booting , just can not find a bootable device ,go to your bios and turn off all hardware option you dont using on your mining rig - You might need to change PCI Subsystem to GEN 1 - Did you setup the correct boot device in bios ? - try to switch sata port for your hard drive 6 cards setup is not a plug and play on some older motherboard Title: Re: 6GPU rig wont boot, works fine with 5GPU.

His computer is able to go to that point where asking for a bootable device , so the motherboard is booting into bios , at that point it should not be a psu problem , and miner running ok with 5 cards installed :) Afterwards monitor shows black screen with flashing cursor in left top corner. After few minutes it says to insert bootable device. Title: Re: 6GPU rig wont boot, works fine with 5GPU.

Reboot into Bios --> Advanced Settings --> System Agent (SA) configuration-->Above 4g Decoding = Enabled Title: Re: 6GPU rig wont boot, works fine with 5GPU. Post by: brownfly on September 20, 2017, 10:58:27 AM Above 4G memory -> Enabled
PEG0 -> Gen1 PEG1 -> Gen1 Integrated Graphic Adapter -> IGD (just for convenience) Windows 8.1/10 WHQL Support -> Enabled (important!) Windows 7 installation -> Disabled Fast boot -> Disabled Secure boot support -> Disabled Title: Re: 6GPU rig wont boot, works fine with 5GPU. Post by: Imelbi on September 27, 2017, 12:47:43 PM Try this: Reboot into Bios --> Advanced Settings --> System Agent (SA) configuration-->Above 4g Decoding = Enabled I belive this worked, I have changed Above 4g decoding to Enabled and this answer helped too: Quote Above 4G memory -> Enabled PEG0 -> Gen1 PEG1 -> Gen1 Integrated Graphic Adapter -> IGD (just for convenience) Windows 8.1/10 WHQL Support -> Enabled (important!) Windows 7 installation -> Disabled Fast boot -> Disabled Secure boot support -> Disabled I did Above 4G memory -> Enabled Windows 8.1/10 WHQL Support -> Enabled (important!) and Fast boot -> Disabled Secure boot support -> Disabled after that, i rebooted and I came to windows! Thank you very much! I've been struggling to make 3 rigs work! Thank you guys again! :) |
